As far as the unidentified credited actors from "Una sera come le altre" go, the 4 men must surely be the "super heroes" in images 64-71, but which is which I haven't a clue. IMDb says Torrisi plays "Batman", which is clearly incorrect, so their other ID's obviously cannot be relied on. I could usually identify Bottin and Moruzzi, but I'm struggling to recognise them behind the masks.

As for Corinne Fontaine I haven't a clue. There are no female roles of any substance at all except possibly the woman assumed to be playing the wife of Orlando Pallamari, but she doesn't seem anything like Fontaine, who should be somewhat younger.

6 is Marcella Theodoli.

Lella Cattaneo and Arnaldo Caivano IDs are correct for sure!

62 on the far left looks like Alfonso Giganti to me.

64-65 is Angelo Santi.

66-67 is most probably Franco Moruzzi, but the mask and the rather soft and blurry print is of no help.

70-71 has to be Gianni Gori. I know him very well from fotoromanzi, so although he is not seen very well, I would say that the face shape and eyes match him.

81 is Ginger Croupier, yes.

91 could be Mara Carisi dressed in black, yes.

92 is Bruno Alias on the far left.

109 is Valentino Macchi again.

Corinne Fontaine is nowhere to be seen, so may have been cut from the final version.

Wasn't there a picture of a dead man posted from the segment "La Siciliana"? I don't see it anymore. Anyway, he seemed like Tony Casale to me...

With 3 of the "heroes" identified then 68-69 must surely be Bottin. The "fantasy" scenes seem to be deliberately soft focus/super-grainy, so it's the fault of De Sica rather than a poor print

The dead man was the actor who has been ID'd as Tano Cimarosa

I would think that 68-69 must be Bottin then, yes, but he's not someone I'm familiar with so I can't say.

The dead guy is Tano Cimarosa?? Can you re-post the corpse pic?

Now that i re-see it, is Giganti for me too with the black moustaches

These are Bottin from other film topics where we have him identified

and here's the corpse…, it should be Cimarosa (or else Scuesan, Tordi or the actor in 56, since those are the men who get killed), but I agree it does seem rather like Casale

I think he probably is Casale. He is for sure not Cimarosa. It seems strange, but on the other hand, it's very much in line with the typical Italian continuity in those days

I guess De Sica thought that with 4 moustachioed men killed, no-one would notice if they substituted yet another moustachioed man as the token visible corpse at the funeral - it's either that or Mangano was at the wrong funeral
