Ben-Hur (1959)

The info about the nobles come from several newspapers from 1958 on the web but this info sometimes differ. I haven't been able to find any Raimondo Ruspoli on the web, but there were 2 brothers called Emanuele (Emanuele Costantino R., born 1900) and Edmondo (1995-1975). Actually I seem to recall th...

Ben-Hur (1959)

Michael Dugan - doubled Charlton Heston in galley slave scenes (have talked to him) Mitchell Kowal - played the officer who tells Judah that he is being taken to Tyrus. Seen only from behind. Have seen a photo of him. Fausto Signoretti - from interview with Christoffer Slotte (A Danesi told me Faust...

Giorgio Ubaldi

speaking of peplum stuntmen, does Benito Stefanelli have a forum here? He is even more famous than Ubaldi.

Giorgio Ubaldi

this has not to do with Ubaldi (or partly it has because he was in Ben-Hur also, I have heard), but when will you go through Ben-Hur in the peplum full casts category. There must be LOTS of generici and others to be identified in that movie. It's the greatest movie ever made. If you can, please get ...

Giorgio Ubaldi

Massimiliano Ubaldi is his son, I think? He should have more info. If you, Stuntman Mike, is a stuntman you probably know Massimiliano. He seems to be working a lot these days. Giorgio Ubaldi worked a lot for Bud Spencer and Terence Hill

stuntmen before 1969

there is a book on Italian stuntmen in the making. The author is Luigi Toto, but I'm not sure when it will be finished. I was in touch with many older stuntmen myself 20 years ago, but many of them are now dead. I talked to Nazzareno Zamperla, Nando Poggi, Franco Daddi, Alfio Caltabiano, Remo De Ang...

Requests for Nick

Despite being strangely uncredited in L'amante del demonio (1972), Nando Poggi is credited on both posters and fotobustas (as are several other actors who uncredited in the film itself). See examples here: https://www.benitomovieposter.com/catalog/lamante-del-demonio-p-124189.html? He plays a fence...

Requests for Nick

I'm not convinced. Something doesn't seem right to me. I think it looks more obviously like him in some of the other images Carlos posted And speaking of Poggi: who is he supposed to be in Ben-Hur ? The one on the right or on the left? Neither of them look much like Poggi to me. The one on the righ...

Requests for everyone

Again, I have to bring up a question we have discussed yet, but - as far as I remember - came to no general conclusion. I'm not happy with the filmos of (almost exclusively) guys who worked as actors/stuntmen/generici, but also had a career behind the scenes, as stunt coordinator, assistant directo...
