Giuliano Biagetti
Giuliano Biagetti (born April 12, 1925 in La Spezia , † March 29, 1998 in Rome ) was an Italian film director and screenwriter .
Life
Biagetti studied medicine at the universities of Pisa and Florence and founded the student ensemble La brigata dei Dottori , with and for whom he wrote and performed comic grotesques. In 1950 he moved to Rome, where he made several documentaries and was involved in various small functions in feature films; his acquaintance with Roberto Rossellini enabled him to direct his first feature film Medico condotto , which was followed in 1952 by Ragazzi al mare , who suffered from poor distribution . Soon after, he focused on television and directed numerous episodes of Carosello . In 1968 he returned with films for the cinema; after repeated failures at the box office, he turned to commercial cinema with more sophisticated films that also took up political issues. For this he partly used the pseudonym Pier Giorgio Ferretti .
