Who Are Those Guys ~ Gilberto Galimberti

 

Gilberto Galimberti could do it all. He was one of the most reliable and often seen particpants in the Spaghetti western genre. Gilberto was an assistant director, stunt coordinator, stuntman, master of arms, and actor, and also a judo expert. Born in Rome on February 25, 1933m he began his film career in the early 1960s, leveraging his acrobatic skills to become a prominent master of arms and stuntman.

In 1976, he co-founded The Acrobat Cinematography Organization, which worked on various films, including those of Tomas Milian. He is best remembered for his appearances in the two Trinity films starring Bud Spencer and Terence Hill. Credited as Gil Roland in many of his 180 plus films, he concluded his career in the early 1990s, having appeared in 56 Euro-westerns.
