Biografía y filmografía

Bernardo Bertolucci

Director de cine italiano, cuyos trabajos destacan por su espectacularidad visual. Nacido en Parma, estudió en la Universidad de Roma, donde adquirió pronto fama como poeta. Después de trabajar como ayudante de dirección de Pasolini en la primera película de éste, Accattone (1961), dirige La comare seca (1962), sobre una idea del mismo director. Su segunda película Antes de la revolución (1964), le dio renombre ya a sus 24 años, al tiempo que estableció su línea de adaptaciones de clásicos literarios como Borges y Alberto Moravia, así como su interés por temáticas políticas y sexuales. Bertolucci introdujo un estilo visual caracterizado por los movimientos de masas magistralmente coreografiados, complejos movimientos de cámara y un montaje estilizado, que otorgaban una dimensión operística a la narración cinematográfica. Continuó con Partner (1968) y La estrategia de la araña (1970), antes de alcanzar su primer éxito artístico con El conformista (1971), historia de un hombre que se une al fascismo para conjurar su problemática identidad sexual. Esta película es considerada por muchos críticos como su obra maestra y fue nominada al Oscar al mejor guión. Su filmografía posterior incluye la polémica El último tango en París (1973, nominada al Oscar al mejor director), Novecento (1976) épico homenaje al comunismo italiano, con música de Ennio Morricone y fotografía de Vittorio Storaro, La luna (1979), La historia de un hombre ridículo (1981), El último emperador (1987, ganador de 9 premios Oscar, dos de ellos a Bertolucci, como director y como coguionista), El cielo protector (1990) y El pequeño Buda (1993).
