About
Dario Argento was born in Rome, Italy. He is an Italian film director, producer and screenwriter. He is best known for his work in the horror film genre, particularly in the subgenre known as giallo, and for his influence on modern horror movies. His most notable work was for Sergio Leone; he and Bernardo Bertolucci collaborated on the story for the spaghetti western classic Once Upon a Time in the West. Soon after that film's 1969 release, Argento began working on his directorial debut, the giallo film The Bird with the Crystal Plumage, which was released in 1970 and was a major hit in Italy. He continued to concentrate largely on the giallo genre, directing two more successful thrillers, The Cat o' Nine Tails and Four Flies on Grey Velvet. He subsequently took a break from directing to write two screenplays for Mario Bava's son, Lamberto Bava: Dèmoni and Dèmoni 2.
