Franco Fraticelli (30 August 1928 in Rome, Kingdom of Italy – 26 April 2012 in Rome, Italy) was an Italian film editor with more than 150 film credits.[1] Fraticelli was director Dario Argento's editor of choice from his earliest films (The Bird with the Crystal Plumage-1969) through Opera (1987).[2][3]
He also had an important collaboration with director Lina Wertmüller, commencing with her third film Rita the Mosquito (1966). Fraticelli edited nine more of her films through A Joke of Destiny (1983). In particular, Fraticelli edited Seven Beauties (1976). This film, which has been called her masterpiece,[4] was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director. It was the first nomination of a woman for the award.
Fraticelli was nominated for the David di Donatello award for editing Boys on the Outside (directed by Marco Risi - 1990); Fraticelli subsequently edited two more films with Risi, Nel Continente Nero (1993) and Kaputt Mundi. In 2006 his career was honored by a Kineo Award.

Director-writer Wertmuller's masterpiece follows a small town Casanova through the horrors of WW2 battle and imprisonment in a concentration camp, where he learns to survive - at any cost. Giannini is superb in this harrowing, unforgettable film.
