Trivia
Beefy Italian character actor, a former butcher, who specialised in playing heavies in spaghetti westerns.
He was a huge supporter of Soccer Team S.S. Lazio Calcio, the oldest multi-sport team of the city of Rome.
A misspelling in the main credits of "An Angel for Satan" (1966) resulted in him being billed under the feminine name "Maria Brega".
Quotes
We literally shot "A Fistful of Dollars" without any money. We were in Spain. Many times we had to go to a restaurant and leave without paying the bill, or we would've not be able to eat.
