Il ratto delle sabine (1961)

Director

Richard Pottier

Storyline

The fledgeling city of Rome has a big problem - they have a lot of men, but no women! Nearby Sabina, however, appears to have a surfeit, so Roman leader Romulus comes up with a plan - drug the Sabine populace and steal their women. As is inevitable in these scenarios, the women naturally fall for their captors.

Uncredited actors listed by other sources
  • Franco Abbina - IMDb

Note
IMDb intimates that both Basile brothers, Cecconi, De Santis, Gallotti, Giordano, Stefanini and unidentified Franco Abbina should all be credited. They are not in the Italian, French, English or German credits, which only really leaves the possibility that they could be in the Spanish, however my Spanish DVD comes with Italian credits.

Unidentified actors

This film was shot entirely in Yugoslavia (excepting some brief inserts shot at Monte Gelato), so the unidentified actors and generici are almost certainly Yugoslav actors. A couple of exceptions could be the Sabine women in images 31 and 33, the Roman in 32 and maybe the priest in 2, who could be Italian or French actors.

I wondered if this one in 6 could be Hrvoje Švob, definitely similar, but not sure

I somehow hadn't noticed him before, maybe because it's more of a background role than he would usually play, but I think this could be Vladimir Bačić on the right. Any opinions welcomed.

I'm not certain about him, i was looking to his hair and eyebrows but difficult to say for me, wait for another opinion.
