: Paola Pitti in Cineguida 1963-64

Paola Pitti is a supporting actress with a small filmography, active in Italian films between 1963-68.

According to all available sources she was born Paola Piretti on April 17th 1947 in Bologna, Italy. She is the older sister of child actors Antonio Piretti and Katuscia Piretti.

Cineguda lists her as having appeared in a documentary in 1962, but her earliest known acting roles come from the following year. At present she has 8 known acting roles, most of which are supporting roles and half of which are in peplums, spread over a 5-year period. Her notes in Cineguida say she was also a television actress, but a search of Radiocorriere TV guide yields no results. That seems to be it as far as her roles on screen go, but she was very active as an actress in fotoromanzi at least into the 1980's.

As far as is known Paola is still living at the time of writing.

We have found one undocumented role for Paola through our film topics, so it's possible there could be more.

Listed in Cineguida 1963-64 under her real name, "Paola Piretti"

Ercole sfida Sansone (1963) as Wife or girlfriend of Alfredo.

She is only seen in this brief cutaway shot, so was presumably not on set with the other actors in the scene, and is mostly facing away from the camera, just turning in the last instant to reveal her identity.
