Italian Thriller ‘Vanished Into the Night,’ Starring Annabelle Wallis and Riccardo Scamarcio, Tops Global Netflix Chart
Italian thriller 'Vanished Into the Night,' starring Annabelle Wallis and Riccardo Scamarcio, has become a global Netflix hit.
“Vanished Into the Night,” a thriller starring Annabelle Wallis and Riccardo Scamarcio as a divorced couple in southern Italy whose children get kidnapped for ransom, has rapidly risen to the top of the global Netflix chart in a rare milestone for an Italian film. “Vanished,” which mixes classic noir and family dynamics tropes – and is adapted from Argentinean thriller “Seventh Floor” (“Séptimo”) directed by Patxi Amezcua – is penned by ace Italian screenwriter and novelist Francesca Marciano (“A Brighter Tomorrow”) and Luca Infascelli (“The Catholic School”). Sessa said in a statement to Variety that, besides being a “source of great pride,” topping Netflix’s global chart provides tangible proof that the international potential of movies “is determined by stories and quality and not just by language.”
