Gianluigi Braschi (2 July 1963 – 23 October 2008) was an Italian film producer.
He was born in Cesena, Italy on 2 July 1963. He was the brother of actress Nicoletta Braschi, who married Roberto Benigni so he worked frequently with him in comedy films. He began working as a production assistant on Johnny Stecchino (1991). In 1994 he formed Melampo Cinematographic production house along with his sister and brother-in-law. He continued to work with Benigni in Il mostro (1994), Pinocchio (2002) and The Tiger and the Snow (2005).[1]
He co-produced the hugely successful film Life Is Beautiful (1997) with Elda Ferri,[2] for which they both received an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture.[3] The film also earned them a David di Donatello for Best Producer, as well as a European Film Award for Best Film.[4]
He died on 23 October 2008 after a long illness aged 45.[5] The funeral was in Cesena on 25 October at convento delle Clarisse.[6]
