Tony Anthony was born Roger Pettito on October 16, 1937.
He is an American actor, producer, director, and screenwriter. Anthony worked
for many years in Spaghetti Westerns (some with co-production company Lupo-Anthony-Quintano
Productions) appearing in 6 Euro-westerns. He produced and starred in two
3-Dimensional movies, both of which enjoyed a modest theatrical release. After
making these two films, Anthony effectively retired from the movie industries
(except for the occasional production work with friend Gene Quintano or Mark
Damon). In late August 2009, Anthony announced he had taken the "over and
under 3-D" format of "Comin' At Ya!" and converted it to
"digital 3-D" as a part of the film's reissue. Following an
exhibition at Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas on September 25, 2011, the film
was restored and digitalized for a 30th anniversary theatrical re-release and
played in theaters throughout Texas starting on February 24, 2012. Today we
celebrate Tony Anthony’s 75th birthday.

Biltmore: One of my favorite spaghetti actors. I wish he would have put in an appearence in either of the two Gene Quintano westerns of the late 90's.
ReplyDeleteHe co-produced "Dollar for the Dead" but it would have been fun to have seen him in a cameo appearance.
