Dionisi is someone we've always struggled with in the past, though previously it has been trying to distinguish him with Sergio Sagnotti, so Domenighini is a new name in the mix.Stuntman Mike wrote: ↑28/12/2024, 9:11Hi everyone!
I'm finishing the topic for Mario Dionisi, and I suspect that there are possible errors in some identifications.
In particular I think there was confusion between Dionisi and Vito Domenighini. They are really very very similar.
If you look carefully this is the identification I had made on Vito Domenighini for I due mafiosi (1964)

The doubt came to me when I saw this other identification of Mario Dionisi from I dieci Gladiatori (1963)

The period is practically the same, and to me they seem to be the same person. I was quite sure when I identified Domenighini, but at this point I am not absolutely certain.
The question is: is it Dionisi in I due mafiosi, or are some of the identifications of the young Dionisi (beginning of the 60’s) actually attributable to Domenighini?
What do you think?

In my opinion it is the same actor in I due mafiosi and I dieci gladiatori, but which actor they are is another matter. I would think probably Dionisi, since Dominighini would only have been around 21 when these films were shot and the actor in the images seems older than that.
