Life and career
    
Born in Rome, Vulpiani began his career as assistant of the operator Enrico Chroscisky.[1] In the fifties he worked mainly in the field of documentary films, also working as a director.[1] In 1965, with a segment of the anthology film Marcia nuziale, Vulpiani started a critically appreciated collaboration with the director Marco Ferreri that includes the celebrated cult films Dillinger Is Dead and La Grande Bouffe.[1] In the late sixties he collaborated with the postmodern painter Mario Schifano in his three experimental films.[1] In the seventies he worked, among others, with Valentino Orsini, Damiano Damiani, Mario Monicelli and Carlo Lizzani.[1] Starting from the eighties Vulpiani focused into less ambitious works, except for several collaborations with Gabriele Lavia.[1]
