Eolo Capritti
Eolo Capritti (born November 2, 1918 in Pescara ) is an Italian film production manager and occasional actor .
Capritti started filming soon after World War II ; he was first seen as an actor in 1948 in Vittorio De Sica's Bicycle Thieves as a police officer. In addition to his work in the background of feature films (as a production assistant, manager and line producer), thanks to a similarity to Telly Savalas, from the mid-1970s to the end of the millennium, he was repeatedly in supporting roles (and sometimes small roles) as a bald villain see, occasionally for television. A pseudonym of Capritti was Al Capri .
