The Father of Ursula: An Interview with Enzo Milioni

About This Movie

So, there's this little gem called 'The Father of Ursula: An Interview with Enzo Milioni' from 2008. It’s a documentary that dives into the mind of Enzo Milioni, the Italian director best known for his 1978 giallo 'The Sister of Ursula'. The tone is relaxed, a bit nostalgic, and you can sense Milioni's passion as he reflects on his experiences in the film industry. It flows at a leisurely pace, allowing him to really unpack themes of creativity and horror. And while it lacks flashy visuals or extensive production values, the strength lies in Milioni's candid storytelling. There’s something almost intimate about the way he discusses practical effects and performances from an era that shaped his career.

This documentary is a bit of an oddity, given its niche subject matter and the relative obscurity of its director. It hasn’t been widely distributed, making it a bit of a treasure for collectors who appreciate giallo and its history. Various formats exist, but finding a quality version can be a task, which adds to its allure. There’s definitely an interest among collectors for pieces that delve into the behind-the-scenes of cult classics, and this one fits that bill nicely.
