Romano Giomini or Unidentified generico?

Before I post I am looking into the possibility that the actor in my images could possibly be Ivan Basta, who is credited in several of the films where my man appears. The only image of Basta on CIDb, posted by me, could be a mis-identification due to roles being wrongly identified on other sources. Does anybody else know or have an image of Basta?

Does anybody else know or have an image of Basta?

I've no idea who he is, but from looking at his IMDb filmography, I see he appears in a couple of westerns, so maybe Carlos will know?

I have just found my man in Vendetta per vendetta, making 3 films he appears in where Ivan Basta is credited. Most of Basta's western credits are ones I already have for Musco, Todesco and Arena, so easy for me to check

Very interesting, when we will see his face i will be very happy to tell if i recognize him in other movies.

Hmmmm, I'm flummoxed! My man appears in 4 films where Ivan Basta is credited (Mondo pazzo... gente matta!, Un milione di dollari per 7 assassini, Samoa, regina della giungla and Vendetta per vendetta), all in roles sizeable enough to warrant a credit, yet I couldn't find him in 2 more where he is credited (Il figlio di Cleopatra and Johnny Oro). There is one further film where Basta is credited which I don't have, Una forca per un bastardo, which, if he appears, may be sufficient to tip the balance for a probable identification - does anyone have a copy?

[Emiliano]

Not, I don't have it :snoring:

[PeplumParadise]

I think he probably must be Basta, even with the 2 films where I didn't find him. There was no other unidentified actor with significant roles who appeared in the 4 films where he is credited

I have a decent VHS rip which I've never watched because it's in German. The credits are Italian and Basta is credited.

If you can post a pic I'll see what I can do

I posted images of him in Requests for Carlos. I think that may even be him in the image with Arena, but it's not too clear

Well we now have my man identified in 5 out of 7 films where Ivan Basta is credited, is this enough to identify him? In the 4 I have seen there were no other unidentified actors who appeared in all the films.
