Il treno crociato (1943) as Man in Signora Lauri's house.

You don't see him too clearly and never from the front, but the eyebrows and head shape are unmistakeable.

Il cappotto (1952) as Doctor.

He has a funny little speaking role as a cigar-puffing doctor of the type you definitely would not want to be treated by.

It's the sort of role that may or may not be credited - it seems likely since Gondrano Trucchi is credited for a smaller role in the same scene. There are 3 unfamiliar names in the credits who could be possibilities:- Mario Crippa, Riccardo Legioni and Giovanni Ranucci. Crippa and Ranucci do not appear to have any other credits, Legioni has 2 in Milano millardaria (1951) and La primadonna (1943), neither of which I have been able to find. Crippa can maybe be eliminated from being identified in a photo on the agefotostock website.

Anna (1951) as Man in the hospital.

He's only seen walking past in the background, but as always his eyebrows are unmistakable!

Caccia all'uomo (1948) as a Prisoner.

Just about recognisable, once again thanks to his magnificent eyebrows, in a montage sequence where you have 2 images superimposed on top of each other.

Ladri di biciclette (1948) as Man at the market.

Never seen too clearly, but he passes in the background on 3 separate occasions, leaving no doubt that it's him.

La forza del destino (1950) as Monk in the chorus.

He gets to mime along with the singing in this opera film.
