Maria Teresa Angelè - She only has one other credited role, so our best bet for identifying her is from the Cineguida portraits in our Db topic. There are no obvious remaining female roles that you would think should be credited, maybe the woman in 65 since Nada Cortese is credited in an equal role, but she doesn't seem very similar.

: This tavern dance was re-used in at least 2 other films, but I'm pretty certain that this is the film where it originated

The pirate with the moustache seen in 47, 48, 53, 54, 70 and 110 I have previously identified in several other films here. I'm not certain about all the ID's, but I'm sure at least 2 or 3 of the other roles are him.

Similarly, the white-bearded Lemur Man lookalike prisoner in 10, 13, 15 and 16 could be the actor we have previously identified in several other films here, but I'm not certain

The woman in pic n72 is a very familiar face to me, but i don't remember if i saw her in movies or fotoromanzi.

I wonder if the older woman in pic n82 can be this Miria Farina i found in a fotoromanzo

Thank you, Carisi and Benedy added.

I'm not convinced of the Farina ID.

I don't know Gatti at all, can someone else confirm the ID?
