The Profile

Italian film director (1901–1969), noted for classic comedies with Totò and Peppino De Filippo, including La banda degli onesti, Totò, Peppino e la... Malafemmina, and Tototruffa ’62. He also directed Gothic horror films such as Crypt of the Vampire and Un angelo per Satana.

Frequent collaborator of Totò; credited at times as Thomas Miller; directed numerous films across comedy and Gothic horror during the mid-20th century.

Three reviews celebrate Mastrocinque’s deft, un-vulgar direction and Totò/Peppino chemistry in La banda degli onesti, Tototruffa ’62, and Totò, Peppino e la... Malafemmina. One review fiercely dislikes Totò A Parigi. Highlights include praise for timing, improvisation, and Alessandro Cicognini’s score.
