Mara Carisi is "Bid Lady with hair band"

Post by Johan Melle » 15/03/2019, 16:58

Mara Carisi is actually our unknown big lady with the hair band. You can see this easily if you compare her face in Voto di castità with the two SS Nazi movies were filmed at around the same time.

The problem is just that I think some of the pictures from the hairband lady topic are of a different actress - a look-alike. At least that what it seems like to me. I think what we need to do go through her topic carefully and discuss which roles are Mara, which ones are the look-alike, or if it's really the same person in all the roles.

To me, I think the pictures from La via della droga (1977), Il... Belpaese (1977) are La sberla (1978) of a look-alike. And I'm uncertain about La supertestimone (1971), Primo amore (1978) and Scherzi da prete (1978) and possibly some others.

What do you all think???

This is the same thing i have been thinking quite a lot in last times.

For La supertestimone (1971), Primo amore (1978) and Scherzi da prete (1978) i think she is her, the other roles she looks very much older so i tend to say no.

As you say we can make a good check of all the topic of big lady with hair and after we finish check every role, then we put the two topics together, or to put the information from this topic into the older topic.

I have begin to see the photos in Il Belpaese she have the same dress she wears in many other movies.
Maybe she had a wig at the time and she was put wrong making her older...

Which are your other roles you have doubt ?

My doubts are basically for the roles I mentioned in the previous post, because she seems somewhat different in these pictures. I suppose there's also room for doubt with La proprietà non è più un furto since she's only seen very quickly and in movement, but I do think it's her. I'd be happy to hear some more opinions, though.

I think she's the same actress except for La sberla (1978) and Primo amore (1978). But I'm not sure at 100% that it's not her in these two. I think that we can put the tag "uncertain identification" for all the uncertain roles, waiting for images with better resolution.

Looking for her in Omicron (1963) I've discovered that Mara Carisi (and Gaetano Quartararo) is not at all credited, and IMDb is wrong. Here are the headlines.

I think this is probably the best solution. So I suppose we can rename the Big Lady with Hair Band topic to Mara Carisi and post the pics from her credited roles there, yes?

I have several 1960s fotoromanzi where Mara Carisi is credited and will try to scan some of them later, though I already have a long list of fotoromanzi pics to scan...
