Nello Rossati

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nello Rossati (born July 15, 1942 in Adria , † 2009 in Rome ) was an Italian film director and screenwriter .

Life

Rossati attended the Accademia Nazionale D'Arte Drammatica and began his career as an assistant and occasional actor for great theater directors such as Franco Zeffirelli , Giorgio Albertazzi , Paolo Squarzina and Giuseppe Patroni Griffi . After moving to the responsible directing position, he worked with actors such as Gianni Santuccio , Anna Miserocchi , Salvo Randone and Nando Gazzolo . Rossati first worked for the film in 1971 - but with the same intensity; In addition to two scripts for Spaghetti Westerns , he also produced two works of his own: the erotic, very inexpensive comedies Bella di giorno, moglie di notte and (after the success of the first, which also starred Eva Czemerys ) La gatta in calore . His other directorial work in the 1970s represented variations of this plot formula; he staged a crime thriller under a pseudonym. In 1980 he shot the film Fuga in Colombia , which was only shown a few years later in Europe before he submitted action films (including the completely unsuccessful return of Django ) under the pseudonym Ted Archer . After another, almost unnoticed film in 1994 and the miniseries La carne e il diavolo , he retired from the business.
