Tino Navarro

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Constantino Alberto Fernandes Navarro (born February 28, 1954 in Vila Flor ) is a Portuguese film producer and actor.

Life

In the early 1980s, Navarro began hosting music concerts. In 1984 he was the first film production assistant for António da Cunha Telles ´ Vidas (English: life). In 1987 he became head of production for the television series Iratan e Iracema - Os Meninos Mais Malcriados do Mundo (German: Iratan and Iracema - The Naughty Children in the World) by the director Paulo-Guilherme d´Eça Leal.

Navarro then founded the production company MGN Films and became a full-time film producer from 1988. Since then he has occasionally played supporting roles in films he has produced. He also appeared several times as a screenwriter, and occasionally produced Spanish films.

Since the mid-1990s, the private television broadcaster SIC has also been involved in the production of cinema films, primarily in collaboration with Tino Navarro. The broadcaster is closely linked to the Lusomundo film distributor, so productions are shown in cinemas across the country. As a result, a number of Navarro productions became box office successes, some of which are still among the most watched Portuguese films since the beginning of the publicly managed Box Office statistics (2004).

Even if they are not works of the auteur film , the films are mostly of a narrative quality despite their commercial orientation. Some works were later shown on television by the SIC. The film Adão e Eva , a television critical comedy starring Maria de Medeiros and Joaquim de Almeida , was broadcast in a longer version as a three-part series. The collaboration with director and actor Joaquim Leitão , which had already started successfully, was continued by Navarro at SIC. A good example of this was Tentação (Eng .: temptation), a film about a pastor and a drug addict mother in a conservative village in northern Portugal. With music from the popular rock band Xutos & Pontapés , and with the actors Joaquim de Almeida, Cristina Câmara , Diogo Infante and Ana Bustorff , the film was a success at the box office as well as on DVD and as a TV show, and received critical acclaim.

Tino Navarro has lived with the 14 years younger Portuguese actress Cristina Câmara since 1997, who played the leading female role in Navarro's successful 1997 production Tentação .
