Lauro Escorel Filho (born January 5, 1950), most known as Lauro Escorel, is an American-born Brazilian cinematographer and film director. He was born during his father, a Ministry of External Relations, stay in Washington, DC.[1] He first worked as an assistant to Dib Lutfi and Affonso Beato, and made his debut in 1971 on Leon Hirszman's São Bernardo,[2] which won Gramado Film Festival Best Cinematography Award.[3] He directed the short film Libertários, winner of Margarida de Prata Award from the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil, in 1976.[4] In 1978, he would win again the Gramado Film Festival Best Cinematography Award for his work on Héctor Babenco's Lúcio Flávio, o Passageiro da Agonia.[3] His first feature film, Sonho sem Fim, won the Jury Special Award at the 1986 Gramado Film Festival.[3] Ironweed (1987), another Babenco's film, would make him more known internationally.[2]
