Romano Giomini or Unidentified generico?

Post by PeplumParadise » 15/09/2019, 13:16

For some time now I had thought that this actor, who I have identified in 11 films, was c.s.c. actor Romano Giomini, though I do not recall now how I originally came to this conclusion.

Looking through Giomini's credits on CIDb I see that of the 11 films where he is identified only 2 have credits for Giomini, while Giomini is credited, with c.s.c., in at least 10 other films where this actor does not appear.

While, given his c.s.c. status, this does not completely rule out his being Giomini, I am now thinking that it is somewhat unlikely.

Does anyone have a definite image of Giomini to confirm one way or the other?

Either way I would say he should have a topic, but what title to put it under is another matter. Opinions please...

This is Giuliano Dell'Ovo, in my thought. But who knows. I'm not familiar with any of them gentlemen.

That is Giuliano Dell'Ovo, not Giomini - Peplumtv / Channel was responsible for causing much confusion by mis-identifying him

Since it is from the Cinecitta shop then I assume that this image must probably be Giomini. I don't recognise his face, but I think he is definitely a different actor from the one in my images

I never deepened who Romano Giomini was, so I don't have an answer to your question. As for the title, you can simply put it in the Unidentified actors forum as "probable Romano Giomini c.s.c."

I think Possible Romano Giomini or Formerly Romano Giomini would be better, or think of a new name without Giomini to avoid confusion, as he clearly isn't the same actor as in the other image

In light of this discovery, giving good the source, perhaps it is the case as you rightly hypothesized, to change its name. It could therefore be a new unidentified generico. In the topic subtitle, you can add "previously confused with Romano Giomini" or something like that.

I have looked through the unidentified actors in the peplum/historical films where Giomini is credited and i do not see the actor in the black and white Cinecitta image in any of them, so either the Cinecitta image is wrongly identified, or else Giomini did not appear in any of the films where he was credited. Even with c.s.c. actors you would expect them to at least appear in a few films where they are credited!

Yes I agree - now to think of a suitable name for him :roll:
