Enrico Cocozza

Enrico Cocozza

Enrico Cocozza (1921–1997), was a Scottish filmmaker who won many film awards during the 1940s and 1950s. His often surreal films were mainly filmed in and around the town of Wishaw in Scotland, where his family owned the popular Belhaven Cafe. These include "Chic's Day" (1950), a prize winner at the 1951 Scottish Amateur Film Festival , "The Living Ghost" (1957), and "Glasgow's Docklands" (1959). Illness later forced him to give up making films and he spent most of his working life teaching at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. In 2001 he was the subject of the Channel 4 documentary "Artery: the Story of Enrico Cocozza".
