Fortunato Ceclia was born in Rome, Italy on October 25, 1931. He appeared in 31 films from 1968 to 1982. He also wrote the screenplays for three films. I can find no other biographical information on him.
His only appearance in a Spaghetti western was as a banjo player in 1968’s “Ciccio perdona…io no!” (Ciccio Forgives…I Don’t!). The problem with this credit is there are no scenes in the film with a banjo player. There is banjo music on the soundtrack but no scenes with any musicians. There is one quick cut of a man and saloon girl ending a dance so possibly a scene with Fortunato playing the banjo was cut.
