Branko Bauer (18 February 1921 to 11 April 2002) was a Croatian film director.
He is widely regarded as the leading figure of classical narrative cinema in Croatian and Yugoslav cinema of the 1950s.
Early life
Bauer became interested in cinema as a school boy. During World War II, he attended Zagreb's local cinemas, which were extremely popular during the Nazi period. In 1942, his father, edomir Bauer, and he concealed their Jewish tenant Ljerka Freiberger from the Ustashi police. In 1992, Yad Vashem named both of them Righteous among the Nations.
Branko began working as a documentary filmmaker in Zagreb in 1949. His debut film, The Blue Seagull, a 1953 children's adventure film, distinguished his work from then-native Yugoslav productions by its vibrant graphic style and natural acting.
Late career
Yugoslav films moved to modernism in the 1960s, but Bauer couldn't adapt to an auteur cinema. He made two failed modernist films in the 1960s and was then unable to gain support for his new cinema projects. He produced Sala ritu (1976), a war drama set in Vojvodina, one of Yugoslav television's most popular works.
