Page "Roberto Rossellini" Paragraph 2

Rossellini's father built the first cinema in Rome ( Barberini's ), granting his son an unlimited free pass ; the young Rossellini started frequenting the cinema at an early age.

When his father died, he worked as a soundmaker for films and for a certain time he experienced all the accessory jobs related to the creation of a film, gaining competence in each field.

Rossellini had a brother, Renzo, who later scored many of his films.
