Dante Posani was an Italian
film actor who had a brief 15 film career from 1961 to 1974. He was part of a
younger group of Italian actors which also included Giulino Gemma and Terence
Hill born in Italy sometime in the early 1940s. Posani was a supporting actor
but unlike Gemma and Hill he did not achieve stardom like his contemporaries.
Feeling Euro-westerns were below him and thinking it might hurt his career he used
an alias in his only starring role in the genre when he was billed as
Montgomery Cark in “Djurado”. He is remembered for his appearances in “Lucky,
el intrépido” (1967), “The Leopard” (1963) and “Avenger X” (1967). He even
tried his hand as a singer releasing a 45 rpm record in 1965 titled “Dante
Who?” which was released on a compilation album that same year entitled “To Our
Friends”.
Nothing is known of his past
prior to, during or after his film career. A wisp on the wind and another
mysterious actor of the genre.
