Al Pacino
Widely considered one of the greatest actors in American history, Al Pacino has won an Oscar, two Tony Awards, and two Emmy Awards, making him one of only a handful of stars to have achieved the Triple Crown of Acting. He has also won four Golden Globe awards. Pacino is famous for playing the Italian American mobster Michael Corleone in “The Godfather” and Cuban drug lord Tony Montana in “Scarface.” Although he has successfully played gangsters in many films, he has also done wonderful work playing police officers and lawyers.

Lighting of the Christmas Tree
One of the things I love about Italy is the different and unique traditions they do throughout the year and in particular during various holidays. One tradition that takes place during the Christmas season is the lighting of the Christmas tree in the city of Gubbio, Umbria.

Manarola’s Illuminated Presepe
An enduring tradition that has been a part of the Christmas season in Italy is the beautiful nativity scenes (presepio) that decorate homes and towns throughout Italy. Over the years these scenes have expanded to include more than just the Holy Family and the three Wise Men. They can be elaborate works of art that depict entire villages. Of all the scenes throughout Italy the one in Manarola stands out and can be seen for miles.
