Caporale or not

[mortimer]

Could this man with long hair be Aristide? It's in the TV series Sogni e bisogni (1985), episode "I ladri" (actually in the framework prologue) as Destino (Fate).

You can see him here at 2.30

Yes, that's surely Aristide Caporale. The hair gets in the way most of the time, but there's a brief glimpse of him in profile which matches his very distinct nose and face, and the height seems right too. For me there's no doubt. Great find!

Oh my what a great role :p

Good!

Is not him, for the reason that Aristide has a broken nose at the top.

[Johan Melle]

You make a good point, but.... these two photos are from different angles. In Sogni e bisogni the camera is below him, while in the other photo he is shot from above. Also, he's wrinkling his brow in first pic, and raising them slightly in the second, which can account for some of the difference. Otherwise, the shape of the nose, the smile wrinkles, particular profile, height etc matches him in my opinion.

[Emiliano]

Look at the shape of the nose, it's totally different. Even by modifying the expression, the nose can not change so much in shape.

Secondly, the image on the right comes from I nuovi mostri (1977). It is not possible that 8 years later (1985) it seems that not even a day has passed on his face.

[Johan Melle]

So it's not him in that nice role, then. What a pity :(

I would not do the bully. Let's put it to the vote. Ever opinion has its value.
