Adriano Corneli was a dwarf actor, active in Italian films at from the mid-1960's to the mid-1970's. He appeared in at least sixteen films and probably several more we’re probably unaware of that he was uncredited.
He can be easily distinguished from the other dwarf actors from having a hump at the base of his spine, giving him a unique body shape and way of walking.
He appeared in only two Spaghetti westerns: “Vado…l’ammazzo e torno” (Any Gun Can Play) in 1967 as Sampson and “La collina degli stivali” (Boot Hill in 1969 as a clown musician)
