Arrigo Peri in "Coriolano eroe senza patria" (1964)

Arrigo Peri was a jovial short, round, balding actor, with glasses when period-appropriate, active in Italian films from the late 40's until around the mid-70's. He was more active in various fields of production than he was an actor.

No biographical details are currently known.

Production titles to check!
Arrigo did make small appearances in a few of the titles where he has production credits, so it's always worth having a look for him.
  • Traviata '53 (1953) - IMDb as Production secretary
  • Il tesoro del Bengala (1953) - IMDb as Production secretary. Not credited in English version.
  • Cartouche (1955) - IMDb as Production supervisor. Not credited in the English version.
  • Valeria ragazza poco seria (1958) - IMDb as Production secretary. Already listed in acting credits.
  • A cuore freddo (1971) - IMDb as Production supervisor
  • Scusi eminenza... posso sposarmi? (1975) - IMDb as Production supervisor

Not Arrigo at all!
The credits mentioned by IMDb in the following titles were not found:
  • Avanzi di galera (1954) - IMDb as Production secretary
  • Due occhi per uccidere (1968) - IMDb as Production supervisor
  • La morte risale a ieri sera (1970) - IMDb as Production supervisor
  • Si può fare... amigo (1972) - IMDb as Production secretary
  • Anche gli angeli mangiano fagioli (1973) - IMDb .... Cook. It's clearly not him in this role, nor has he another one.

Avanzi di galera (1954) credited, as Man who calls the doctor urgently.

IMDb says he should be credited as production secretary on this one, but he is only credited as an actor (which is, of course, missing from IMDb).

Valeria ragazza poco seria (1958) as what appears to be the Stage manager on a film set.

IMDb says he should be credited as Production secretary. I only managed to find a short clip without the credits, but in which he does appear as an actor.
