Pasquale Basile was an actor, stuntman and occasional master of arms active in Italian films from at least the mid-1950's until the late 1970's.

He was the brother of actor/stuntman Antonio Basile. No other biographical details are currently known.

He started out as a stuntman in peplums, moving into more substantial character roles once spaghetti westerns came along - he could fit equally into our stuntman section. He sometimes used the anglicised pseudonym "Pat Basil".

I have found quite a few undocumented early roles for Pasquale, so I am sure there will be still more to come.

Pasquale is missing!
Films where Pasquale is credited with appearing somewhere online, but cannot be found. There always has to be one!
  • Dio perdoni la mia pistola (1969) IMDb as Pablo Ramirez. Not found by myself or Carlos.
  • Jesse & Lester - Due fratelli in un posto chiamato Trinità (1972) IMDb as Cantina owner. There's an actor with a similar look in the role, but it isn't Pasquale - agreed by Carlos

The earliest role I've found for Pasquale so far is in Le schiave di Cartagine (1956) as an Angry spectator at the senate.

He's dressed in red.

Il diavolo bianco (1959) credited, but not found.

I've never managed to find Pasquale in this film, which means either he does not appear (maybe scenes deleted?) or else looks quite different and therefore unrecognisable.
