Cesare Martignoni in Dieci italiani per un tedesco (Via Rasella) (1962)

Cesare Martignoni was born in Rimini on December 12, 1906, in via Principe Amedeo, in the same building as Fellini, of whom he was a great friend having grown up together.[1]

He was a very important fotoromanzo actor, with dozens of fotoromanzi, quite often with good roles. He was also a very busy generico, with some credited roles like the one as victim in Dieci italiani per un tedesco (Via Rasella) and in some Fellini movies, but the majority of the time he was uncredited.

La cieca di Sorrento (1963) role uncertain

We previously had him listed as being credited as "Ray Martin", but we have since confirmed the appearance of Ray Martino, so he obviously isn't!

Cesare Martignoni was a favorite of Federico Fellini, who used him in many films!

Here he is in Fellini's Roma (1972) as Boarding house tenant
