Michelangelo Antonioni

Michelangelo Antonioni was born in Ferrara in 1912. A graduate in economics and commerce in Bologna, he wrote film criticism, made documentaries and directed his first feature film only in 1950. The screenwriter Tonino Guerra collaborated on almost all his works for some forty years. He received the Palme d'Or, the Golden Lion and the Golden Bear, then an honorary Oscar in 1995. A stroke left him almost entirely without speech in 1985, but he returned to directing ten years later. He died in Rome in 2007.
