Adriana Bruno was a generica who was very busy in the 70s, and particularly in "poliziotteschi". She often plays nuns, maids, prostitutes or angry women in crowds. For over a decade, she has worked a great deal in Italian cinema, suspending her activity at the end of 1982.
After many years of trying to find out her name, our forum user Ciavazzaro finally made it, thanks to her very large and credited role as Andy Luotto's mother in SuperAndy, il fratello brutto di Superman (1979). In the same year she has another credited role in L'insegnante balla con tutta la classe, in which she plays a school teacher.
