Eduardo De Filippo

The natural son of Eduardo Scarpetta, she began, like his brother Peppino and sister Titina, acting young. In 1932 he formed with his brothers a company of Theater Humor, which was soon acclaimed in Italy and lasted until 1945. Started to become known also as an author, with the text of a comedy with a bitter and essentially tragic, as Sik-Sik, the architect of magic (1930), Natale in casa Cupiello (1931), Who is cchiù happy 'and me" (1932), do Not pay! (1940), where the dialect was not a limit to the discourse of drama. Passed in the meantime, even in the cinema, becoming especially admire The three pointed hat (1934, Mario Camerini). In 1945, broke away from his brother and formed the Theatre of Eduardo, and show you his plays are more mature in which, through the lesson of Pirandello, the author raises disturbing questions about the condition of the contemporary man: Napoli milionaria (1945), These ghosts!and Filumena Marturano (1946), inner voices (1948), Well me and my heart (1955), Saturday, Sunday and Monday (1959), The mayor of rione Sanità (1960), The exams never end (1974), etc... Poet, undisputed, champion of the poverty, Eduardo, had the ability to investigate the feelings of the humble decifrandoli with features, full of nuances, hovering between farce and tragedy. A message that is so universal as to have made his theatre exportable in Great Britain as in Russia, despite being so heavily influenced by the dialect. Some of her plays she directed and starred in the film version, with taste neorealistico and results of significant species for Napoli milionaria (1950), Filumena Marturano (1951), which was followed, in 1953 Neapolitans in Milan. Ended his activity as a writer by translating the verses of the neapolitan Shakespeare's The tempest..
