Actors from Il gatto a nove code
We have been reporting for a long time that Giuseppe Marocco appears in The Cat o' Nine Tails, but personally I have never been convinced about it. I think it's just an extra that looks a lot like him. Now that I have the high definition copy by the hand, I finally found an angle to make a comparison with the profile (the profile never lies in this case).
These are the frontal images of him so we say that this looks like Morocco.
But there is also another shot, from which you can see his profile, and it is this:
By cutting the head alone and superimposing it on an image of Morocco from another film, undeformed, centering the ear as a reference axis, we can see that although the profiles are very similar, they do not match at all.
And that's why, in my opinion, we should remove this film from its filmography.
Your opinion?

Re: Giuseppe Marocco in Il gatto a nove code
For me, he's absolutely Marocco both in the frontal and in the profile shots. I see the point you are making and the comparison, but this HD version is in my opinion so dark and the image so draped in shadows that it's not fair to use for an accurate comparison. I actually prefer the old DVD version I have, which is much brighter and this makes it easier to see the generici in the background. For me, it really is Marocco also when seen in profile in this shot
Re: Giuseppe Marocco in Il gatto a nove code
Thankyou Johan. Does Morocco by any chance carry a ring on the right hand in other films / fotoromanzi? I also noticed this detail here. I'm still not convinced... in the meantime I accept it as Morocco, however I hope one day to have the 4K version and maybe with that we will be able to say an end to this question.

Do you remember his name? It completely escapes me

The one in the glimmer of light. He's a comedian, not very famous.Ciavazzaro wrote: ↑09/04/2019, 22:55Which actor you mean ?
