Biography
Throughout his career, D'Errico directed 11 feature-length films across the adventure, comedy, and neorealist drama genres. His work is a testament to the intersectionality of propaganda, spectacle, and entertainment. Beyond his work as a filmmaker, D’Errico was a journalist for a fascist newspaper and was well connected with many of the party's high profile officials. His party connections allowed him take a role within the State secretary of Press and Propaganda as a member of Mussolini’s press office.
