Tinto Brass
Giovanni Tinto Brass (Milán, 26 de marzo de 1933) es un director de cine italiano. Tras iniciarse en cine como colaborador de la Cinémathèque Française y ayudante de Joris Ivens, Alberto Cavalcanti y Roberto Rossellini, desarrolló durante los años 1960 y 1970 un estilo sumamente personal y vanguardista, que le llevaría en los años 1980 a realizar un cine directamente provocador, entre la pornografía y el esteticismo. Fascinado con el erotismo, a partir de los años 1990 abandona la mayor parte de las temáticas que había desarrollado con anterioridad, y se dedica exclusivamente a filmar numerosas obras intimistas, caracterizadas por una fotografía veloz (y plena de travellings), un montaje rápido y guiones humorísticos y desconcertantes. Fue apodado "Tintoretto" por su abuelo, por lo que decidió usar "Tinto" como nombre artístico.
Brass fue el realizador principal de la controvertida película de culto Calígula (1979), aunque estuvo en desacuerdo con los cambios que realizó el productor (y director de algunas de las escenas condicionadas que se agregaron al film, sin consultar a Brass) Bob Guccione, por lo que eligió no aparecer acreditado como director de la misma (siendo mencionado únicamente como el encargado de la fotografía principal).
