Giorni di gloria

Mario Serandrei

Mario Serandrei (Napoli, 1907 - Roma, 1966) worked as editor for some of the greatest Italian directors (Visconti, Rosi, Blasetti, Fellini, Zurlini, and Ferreri).

Giuseppe De Santis

Giuseppe De Santis (Fondi 1917 - Rome 1997) began working in cinema in the 1940's as a critic, screenwriter and assistant to Luchino Visconti on Ossessione (1942). He participated in the Resistance in Rome and, in 1946, worked with Aldo Vergano on Outcry. In 1947 he debuted in directing with The Tragic Hunt and, two years later, directed his masterpiece Bitter Rice. In 1950 he made Under the Olive Tree, which was filmed in Lazio and is the ideal continuation of the preceding film. He then made Rome 11:00H one of his biggest international successes. In Yugoslavia he directed Road a Year Long (1958), and he went on location in the Soviet Union to direct Attack and Retreat (1964), one of his most emotional films. After a long silence, he participated in the filming of Oggi è un Altro Giorno (1995).
