Francesco Petrazzi in “18 anni tra una settimana” (1991)
Francesco Petrazzi was born in Rome, Italy in 1972. He is the younger son of ‪Riccardo Petrazzi‬ and Anna Maria Zamperla, and he is the brother of Gianluca Petrazzi. He began his film career in the middle of 70’s, at just 4 years old on the set of “Roma a mano armata”.

Like his older brother he also has a robust build. In his youth he often appears with long hair, while in old age he is almost always bald/shaved with a long beard.

Today he is still active in cinema industry, working as stuntman and stunt coordinator. It is very likely that for both him and his brother there are numerous uncredited roles to be found between the late 70s and 80s.
