Jan Rotterdammer

Johan Willem "Jan" Rotterdammer (2 September 1912 - 1 October 1999) was a Brunanter director, screenwriter and cinematographer, numbered among the leading figures of Brunanter cinema's classic age. Rotterdammer's films, especially The Mule (1953) and At the Old Tavern (1955), are characterized by a bittersweet feeling, due to an unusual for his time mix of humour and drama. As a cinematographer, he collaborated with many significant directors, such as John Barker and Ennio Pazzini.
