Édouard Molinaro (31 May 1928 – 7 December 2013) was a French film director and screenwriter.
He is best known for his comedies with Louis de Funès (Oscar, etc.), My Uncle Benjamin (with Jacques Brel and Claude Jade), Dracula and Son (with Christopher Lee), and the Academy Award-nominated La Cage aux Folles (with Michel Serrault and Ugo Tognazzi). Molinaro was active as a director until a few years before his death, although he had almost exclusively been producing works for television.
In 1996, his cinematic work was awarded the Prix René Clair, a prize given by the Académie française for excellent film work.
