Spaghetti Western Screenwriter ~ Federico De Urrutia
Federico De Urrutia was a Spanish poet and screenwriter
known for his early literary works and contributions to film scripts.
Born in 1907 in Madrid, Spain, De Urrutia began his
career as a poet, publishing collections such as Poemas de la Alemania
eterna in 1941. He later transitioned into the film industry, where he
worked as a writer, contributing screenplays, stories, and scripts to various
productions.
His notable film credits include “Evil Eye” (1975), “Los
corsarios” (1971), “La bella Mimí” (1961), “The Forgotten Pistolero”, and His
Name Was Holy Ghost (aka Blazing Guns), among others, often in the genres of
adventure, western, and thriller films produced in European cinema. De
Urrutia's career reflects a shift from poetry to screenwriting, spanning both
literary and cinematic fields in Spain and international co-productions.
Federico died in Xàtiva, Comunidad Valenciana, Spain in
1988 at the age of 80.
Federico De Urrutia was a screenwriter on eleven
