Julio Eduardo Bressane de Azevedo, (Rio de Janeiro, February 13, 1946 ) is a Brazilian filmmaker and a writer.
The representative of the Brazilian cinema marginal', he began making films as an assistant director of the Walter Lima, Jr. in about 1965. In 1967, Bressane debuted for the director with a Face-to-Face, and being selected for the film Festival of Brazil. In 1970, he founded Belair Movies, in company with a fellow filmmaker Rogério Sganzerla. They chose the model of making films and the low cost of production, and thereby ready-to-run, six feature films in just six months.
He came into exile in London in the early 1970s, but returned to Brazil several years later, and made one film after another, using the slapstick and the debauchery of the its main features. An acclaimed film of this period was the provocative Taboo, released in 1982. Critics consider Bressane, the most scholarly of the Brazilian film directors, and his work is notable for the diversity of its narrative language. Another feature of his filmography is the comprehensive approach to historical and literary characters. He is also noted by his low-budget, short-time shootings, with an average of 11 to 14 days to make and edit a film.
Júlio Bressane has directed films starring Nildo Parente, Alessandra Negrini, Taumaturgo Ferreira and Miguel Falabella.
