Red flags and banners have begun to spring up all around Montepulciano in preparation for the scenes that will be filmed for New Moon soon in the Italian city. A giant fountain is being constructed in front of the fateful clock tower as well. As for the red flags and banners, YuN from Italy says-


The red flags are because of the old district that is going to be used in the Piazza Grande shot. The production chose some of the districts in Montepulciano with red colors, the ones mainly used during the celebration.
In particular they chose the Voltaia district, asking them to participate as extras to the movie, in the mob, to show the feeling of an organized carnival, with flags and costumes really existing.
Ladycullen, who sent in the pics, notes that ironically the sign on the right says “Donate Blood”. Read on for more amazing photos as well as a video looking down at the plaza.




Banderas rojas se han empezado a colgar por todo Montepulciano en preparación para las escenas que serán filmadas para Luna Nueva pronto en la cuidad italiana. Una fuente gigante se está construyendo en frente de la torre de reloj. Sobre las banderas YuN de Italia dijo “Las banderas son porque serán usadas también en Piazza Grande. La producción eligió algunos de los distritos de Montepulciano con colores rojos, los cuales se usan durante la celebración.”
