Ovidio Cátulo González Castillo (6 August 1906 – 19 October 1975) was an Argentine poet and tango music composer. He was the author of many famous works, such as Organito de la tarde [es], El aguacero (lyrics by José González Castillo [es]), Tinta roja [es] and Caserón de tejas (both with music by Sebastián Piana [es]), María and La última curda [es] (both with music by Aníbal Troilo), and El último café (with music by Héctor Stamponi [es]). The tango La calesita, which he composed with Mariano Mores, inspired the film of the same name directed in 1962 by Hugo del Carril.
