The first question is he to ask me. Note that my calendar and the cover of my smartphone are the same, identical color tone.
“You like turquoise, huh? That is turquoise, isn’t it? ‘
It really is a coincidence. But the spirit of observation of Mirko Found It is surprising. Especially considering that, for the rest of the interview, her brilliant gaze will only glide non-stop, perhaps nervously, between the pack of cigarettes on the table, the coffee machine nearby and everything in between.
From time to time he stops to point me straight in the eye, from behind the curls, disciplined perhaps only for the photo shoot. It happens when he says to me: “Do you understand?” It happens often.
Born and raised in Pomezia. How do you feel there?
“It’s good for weekends, for the sea. But stay in the loop, live in it. I don’t feel inspired at all there ».
How did you start acting?
«I was in a bar in Torvaianica, there was a flyer for a casting. I didn’t even know what it was. I was 14 and I tried ».

“
It was for Red bracelets?
“No, and in fact they didn’t catch me. But the thing intrigued me. After a month and 8 auditions he arrives Bracelets. I have not stopped since then ».
Did you immediately realize that acting is what you like to do?
«No, I wouldn’t say. I’ve always had fun on sets, but I’ve only realized it for a couple of years, with Baby, that this, now, is really my life. Now I am aware of it. I can’t even imagine Mirko without acting now ».
Do you think you had to give up something?
“From day to night I found myself in something greater than myself. Maybe I… grew up too fast? ‘
How old are you feeling today?
«Out of desire to do, 15. But I often talk to people of my age and it is as if the thought stops. Do you understand?”.
I do not believe. Can’t communicate?
“I communicate. But I see that their thinking often reaches there, it does not go beyond a certain level. As if mine were expanding a lot more. Maybe I’m more mature ».
It depends on the job, do you think?
“Perhaps also from having always dated people older than me. At 14, I went to dinner with forty-year-old friends. You can imagine my parents, they were half scared. They know that I am a bit like that, crazy, but also that I have my head on my shoulders ».
Are your parents part of the world of cinema?
“No, but my grandfather acted in as a child Rome open city. They caught him on the street. He always showed me the videotape. ‘
Which characters attract you?
“Now, those very different from me. As in Baby, where I play a boy who discovers his homosexuality, and who is very afraid of the judgment of others ».
What did this character teach you?
“People say, ‘No, I’m not gay!’ But what do you know? If you don’t try things, how can you say they don’t belong to you? I took it 100% and I realized that no, I’m not ».
In Red braceletsinstead, he plays the spirit of a dead boy.
“Something a little surreal. Certainly somewhere we have someone who helps us to follow the right path, but we have to hear them, these things. We have to believe it, a minimum. I don’t mean life after death, that’s too big a thing. What do You know…”.
Do you fear the judgment of others?
“I don’t give a damn, I’m going my own way. Even if I do strange things … But then who defines what is strange? ».
Exactly. What are these weird things?
“To say: I’m full of tattoos, even if many have advised against them, saying it would be more difficult to work for the cinema.”
When he started he was little more than a child. Over the years the tenderness disappears, leaving room for more. How did you experience this passage?
“Yes, but look, if you take off the two hairs from my face, I’m still a baby.”
What grade do you give as an actor?
«But how can I rate myself! It always came super easy to me, this thing. I don’t want to do schools, I don’t want to be taught a method ».
As in neorealism: it follows instinct. Even in life?
“Always”.
And was he never wrong?
“Once, too big a thing. But I don’t tell him. But who is not wrong? I am a living person, who must be known how to take. To me, either you love me or you hate me ».
Who hates her?
“But I do not know. I’m unfiltered, if something doesn’t suit me, I say it. Not everyone likes it. Do you understand?”.
Besides acting, what interests you?
«Music, a lot. It’s a real outlet. To paint. Fashion. I’m starting a brand, it’s called Paranoid. I also got it tattooed here, on my belly, look. I am, a little paranoid ».
Even?
“In every situation you find me, I think there may be a danger, but it’s all the fruit of my head. If I see someone with their phone facing me, I always think they can pick me up. What then, maybe, is not even shitting me. “
Do you have a clear idea of who you would like to be in 30 years?
«I speak with humility, but I would like to do this job in America. I love Jack Nicholson, he’s a boss. I am in love with him. Do you know that I am sorry to know that one day he will die? ‘
It is not easy to frame, Mirko Trova. Not even after half an hour. I see no alternative to the direct question.
After all, let me understand: do you feel like a good guy or a bad guy?
“But no, I’m a good boy. I mean, it depends … what do you mean? If you know how to take me, I have a huge heart. I am almost moved to say it. I have values, I know how to treat people ».
And do people know how to treat her?
“No. This is the problem. People think that all actors are assholes and that they just get a little hit. It’s a stereotype ».
What do you like about success?
“I tell you what I don’t like. When they tell me that I am gorgeous without ever having seen anything I have done ».
And now that everything is stopped, what does it do?
«I am a bit of the idea: ‘whoever lives will see’. Of course, the situation is strange: I’m used to shooting a lot, I’m a bit of a gypsy ».
What do you always carry with you on your travels?
“The Parfums. I don’t leave the house without it. They excite me, they make me have fun, they stimulate my memories ».
Do you smell people too?
«Yes, but I pay attention to everything, not just perfumes. It doesn’t seem like it, but nothing escapes me ».
It seems, it seems.
