Giovanni Morosi

[Ciavazzaro]

Giovanni Morosi in Giallo a Venezia (1979)

This little old man with a white beard is another generico I have found in many movies, so I decided to open a topic for him too. He has a key role in Giallo a Venezia as one of the main witness to the initial double murder, and also very nice roles in Sono fotogenico (1980) as an extra at Cinecittà, and in Anno 2020 - I gladiatori del futuro (1982) as the professor.

He plays the professor in Anno 2020 - I gladiatori del futuro (1982). A relevant role, sadly he wasn't credited.

And a very nice role in Sono fotogenico (1980), wherehe basically plays himself: a generico/extra at Cinecittà. He appears first together with Maria Tedeschi

[Johan Melle]

Nice little speaking role for him in the sceneggiato Una donna spezzata (1989) as Professor Baldi

The role is just about big enough that I thought he might be credited, and in the end titles there's a certain Giovanni Morosi credited

Since Giovanni Morosi is credited in very few other movies, I thought it was worth searching for some of the other movies he's credited in...

And look who I found in Peccati a Venezia (1980) in a small role as Dr. Cini!!

So it's now official: our man is GIOVANNI MOROSI

[carlos]

Woo Hoo!! :cool:

[Ciavazzaro]

The only time i leave early look what happened !!!

This is so important, it was the last speaking actor still needed to be identify from GIALLO A VENEZIA ! i think we know have at least all the speaking actors with a name !

And this man is everywhere so soon i will put new roles !

[Ciavazzaro]

The other credited role in Vieni avanti cretino (1982)

He is a client who found a dead fly in his drink and so ask Banfi to take it away

But after Banfi take it off the drink he say : "no i want another ! (drink) but Banfi understand another fly, so he kill another fly and he put it back in the drink !

Here are the closing credits
