Cesare Canevari
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Born in Milan, Canevari began his career shortly after World War II as a stage actor, occasionally also appearing in films in minor roles.[1] Variously referred to as "a genius ahead of his time",[2] "a master of genre cinema"[2] and "one of the less labelable directors of Italian genre cinema",[3] he directed nine films between 1964 and 1983.[4] Often characterized by an unusual style, his films ranged through different genres, including noir, Nazisploitation, Spaghetti Western, giallo and melodrama.[2][3][4] His films generally were produced and shot in Milan.[3][4] His final film was Delitto carnale (1983)[5]
