Unidentified actors

Unidentified credited actors

• David Baxter as Young Bolshevik. He has a number of TV roles on IMDb, so may be identifiable if any of these can be found. There are a few small speaking roles that could match this description, so I wouldn't like to hazard a guess at which he may be.

Uncredited actors listed by other sources, but not identified

• Jeremy Brett - IMDb with no role.
• Emma Cohen - IMDb with no role.

Interiors and some exteriors were shot in Spain. Winter exteriors and maybe the final scenes (260 onwards) were shot in Yugoslavia. Background actors should be identified accordingly, however it appears there could also be a number of imported British actors in uncredited bit parts.

I don't know his identity, but the actor on the left here looks like he could be the same actor we have in the unidentifieds from Il coltello di ghiaccio below

[PeplumParadise]

I did a bit of historical research and the description on Wikipedia of Goloshchekin, credited to David Giles, matches the role played by the actor in 286/292/293/295, who is unnamed in the film. On the strength of that I think it is safe to add Giles without having any way to confirm the ID, which only leaves one unidentified credited actor.

[PeplumParadise]

I'm wondering if the last unidentified physician could maybe be José Marco, the images below both dating from the following year. Any opinions?

[PeplumParadise]

and another one I'm not certain of, could this member of parliament maybe be Joaquín Solís, whose topic will be up in a day or two? The images below all date within a couple of years of this film. Any opinions?
