Damiano Damiani (23 July 1922 – 7 March 2013) was an Italian screenwriter, film director, actor and writer. Poet and director Pier Paolo Pasolini referred to him as "a bitter moralist hungry for old purity",[citation needed ] while film critic Paolo Mereghetti said that his style made him "the most American of Italian directors".[1]
In 1946 Damiani became part of the so-called Group of Venice with Fernando Carcupino , Hugo Pratt and Dino Battaglia .
Life and career [ edit ]
Born in Pasiano di Pordenone , Italy, Damiani studied at the Accademia di Brera in Milan , then made his début in 1947 with the documentary La banda d'Affari . After a few years as a screenwriter, he directed his first feature film in 1960, Il rossetto .[citation needed ]
Before his career as a big screenwriter, Damiani was first a comic cartoonist in association with the "Group of Venice".[clarification needed ] Focused on the comic Asso di Picche (1945–49) the comic featured a masked vigilante who fights crime all over the globe and is in charge of the crime stopping organization, "Band of Panthers".
A smaller publication to which he also contributed through illustration was Mike Lazy (1946) producing two volumes in Albo Dinamite by Edizioni Il Carro in Milan.[2] Then individually producing his own gangster comic, Pat la Rocca (1946). Two books were published in the collection Collana Gialli Film, also by Edizioni Il Carro. A third comic was scheduled and advertised to release yet never materialized.[citation needed ]
Continuing his work in the comic industry, Damiani wrote scripts for the photo comic strip Arizona Kid (1949) published in Mondadori magazines such as Avventuroso Film and Bolero Film .[2] Moving on to work on the launch of a similar magazine, Sogno , alongside editor Luciano Pedrocchi , he also later worked as a screenwriter for an adventure comic I Tre Boyscouts (Edizioni Castello, 1948; which was illustrated by Rino Ferrari , Giovanni Benvenuti and Andrea Bresciani ). Later in his career, Damiani did some illustration work for the crime noir comic, Hogart il Giustiziere , which was reprinted and published under the title Bogart il Giusitiziere (1968–69).[3]
His 1962 film, Arturo's Island , won the Golden Shell at the San Sebastián International Film Festival .[4] The 1960s were Damiani's "golden decade"; he was praised by critics and his films were box office successes.[5]
In 1966, he directed A Bullet for the General , one of the first political spaghetti Westerns .[6] In 1968, with The Day of the Owl ,[7] he started a series of films in which social criticism, often related to the connections between politics and crime, was mixed with spectacular plots.[8] His 1971 film Confessions of a Police Captain won the Golden Prize at the 7th Moscow International Film Festival .[9]
In 1973 Damiani débuted as an actor, playing Giovanni Amendola in Florestano Vancini 's The Assassination of Matteotti .[8] He was known to cult horror film fans for directing Amityville II: The Possession in 1982 for Dino De Laurentiis .[citation needed ]
In 1984, he directed one of the most famous Italian television series, La piovra , a description of the contemporary Italian Mafia and its involvement in politics.[8] His last feature film was Assassini dei giorni di festa , directed in 2002.[10]
Damiani died on 7 March 2013, at his home in Rome, from respiratory failure; he was 90 years old.[5]
