Ugo Mari in F.B.I. Francesco Bertolazzi Investigatore - episode "Sparita nel giorno delle nozze" (1970)

Ugo Mari, is another very active generico, present in movies from at least the late 1940s and until the mid 1970s.
He appears very often in films starring the legendary comic Totò, where he often has small speaking roles, but he was apparently credited in only two films: Daniele Cortis (1947) and Suor Letizia (1956).

I know Ugo! I actually have a very old fotoromanzo where he is credited! "Anime nella bufera", published in the magazine Tipo from N. 37 (18 June 1949) to N. 50 (17 September 1949)!

And here's Ugo with Jayne Mansfield in Gli amori di Ercole (1960)

He's also present at the coronation in Zorro contro Maciste (1963)

And here's Ugo at the nightclub in the Hollywood production The Barefoot Contessa (1954)! Not bad!

Ugo Mari in Suor Letizia (1956) (as man buying nets from the convent)

this title and also daniele cortis (1947) not yet printed in filmo but mentionned !
at last a picture of this movie.

Great! Can you confirm if Ugo Mari is indeed credited in Suor Letizia, then?

Also, the reason why Suor Letizia and Daniele Cortis were mentioned but not included in the filmography is because we cannot blindly trust the IMDb or the Dizionario del Cinema Italiano as the information from there is often wrong. Therefore, we prefer to verify performances before including them in the filmography.

Here are a couple of new and really nice roles for Ugo!

He's a party guest playing strip poker in Totò, Peppino e... la dolce vita (1961)

Cool little speaking role for him in Rita, la figlia americana (1965) as an audience member who complains during the concert conducted by Totò and then finally leaves in anger
