IVREA
Max Cavallari, born Massimiliano Cavallari, born in Varese on 8 July 1963, well-known face of Italian television and cinema, actor and comedian, for years paired with Bruno to form the stainless duo I Fichi d’India, has enthusiastically married the cause of Avis, the Italian volunteers association of Ivrea, lending his image as a testimonial for the 2021 campaign.
In these days it is easy to come across in the city, and in over fifty municipalities of the Canavese, large-format posters with the image of the friendly and helpful Max and his slogan If you want to be cool, give blood!.
It should be remembered and underlined that Max Cavallari has been supporting and participating in the prestigious Riso fa buon Sangue project for years, which promotes blood donation with a smile in collaboration with the Italian Avis.
In the company of the president Avis Ivrea Fernando Giannini the goal was a meeting in Ivrea with Max Cavallari testimonial 2021, but for now we have had to settle for an online interview with the intention of organizing a moment in Ivrea as soon as possible because the the beauties of the Canavese area should be presented to those who wanted to lend their image to an association of absolute prestige, which has always been committed to supporting various initiatives.
«Since I was a child, in the ranks of the boy scouts, I found in me the desire to make people laugh and smile, I always wore the role of the pack jester who with dedication prepared the skits for the evening bivouac – says Cavallari -. If other kids my age frequented the stadium, I preferred to go in search of the shows where the clowns were performing. From them I learned the art of making people laugh which I then tried to convey in the little shows that I organized in the buildings where I lived. I sarcastically imitated the neighbors, the aunt, the cousins and the grandmother. Comedians are born, but it is very difficult to become one. Then I was lucky enough to meet Bruno and everything turned first into a dream and then into work. But I would like to emphasize that before being a comedian I was a blacksmith, mechanic, truck driver and then how not to remember the words of my dad who said loudly to me you are done going around being a fool here there is work to live. But I have always told myself that making people laugh is, and should have been, an indispensable mission ».
Max Cavallari is known to the general public for his countless characters, observed in daily life and then successfully imitated on stage: from Mrs. Olga, who lives in the railing houses, to the little girl, Marisa, an ex-girlfriend of his, to the man of the cold. who delivered frozen food door to door and then the tichi tic sketch deriving from Neri per Caso.
In this period of pandemic Max Cavallari looks to the future: «I am extremely confident. Soon we will come out of this tunnel, we have defeated worse things and we will leave this virus behind too. To young people who have suffered beyond measure these closures I say: leave video games and mobile phones, go back to get the books, read, read and continue reading. Books are great company and help us overcome even the most difficult moments. Then of course you never forget to become a blood donor is an important mission to which you can adhere with enthusiasm ». Massimo Sardo
