RIP Corrado Solari

 


Italian theater, film and television actor Corrado Solari died in Rome on June 9th. He was 79 years old. Thought of by film viewers as a villain par excellence, Solari was an actor with a severe face, a sharp gaze, and a stage presence capable of making even the most marginal character unforgettable. With a career spanning over fifty years and a solid theatrical training, he has played numerous complex characters, often antagonists, criminals and authoritarian figures and with a strong expressive intensity. In his private life, however, he was known as a cultured, kind person and deeply passionate about art and literature. Corrado Solari appeared in one Spaghetti western as Sebastian, one of Juan’s family in 1971’s “Duck You Sucker.”
