Little Known Spaghetti Western Actors ~ Orlando Baralla

 [These daily posts will cover little known actors or people that have appeared in more recent films and TV series. Various degrees of information that I was able to find will be given and anything that you can add would be appreciated.]

Orlando Baralla was of the most active character actors in Italian cinema, on the stages since the forties, his career slowed down in the second half of the 1960's. He has around eighty film credits but only one Spaghetti western appearance as Governor Wallace in 1967’s “...e divenne il più spietato bandito del sud” (For a Few Bullets More) starring Peter Lee Lawrence. He was also a prolific character actor in fotoromanzi magazines.

He’s probably best remembered as the doctor in the 1959 Horror classic “Caltiki il mostro immortale” (Caltiki the Immortal Monster).

Orlando was married to Beatrice Fiammetta and his adopted daughter was the actress Fiammetta Baralla [1943-2013].
