Pietro Carloni (actor)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pietro Carloni (born October 28, 1896 in Taurisano , † August 3, 1968 in Rome ) was an Italian actor .

Carloni came from an Apulian family of artists and began his theater career at a young age in Ernesto Murolo's company . There he met his future wife Titina De Filippo in 1921 ; later he became one of the main actors in the theater company of the De Filippo family. After other positions (in 1935 he belonged to the group “Teatro Nuovo” in Naples, later to the troupe “Cafiero / Sumo” with Nino Taranto ) he remained connected to the family until his death; in 1967 he was seen alongside Peppino De Filippo at the Roman Teatro delle Arti in the comedy Come si rapina una banca .

Carloni's film career (and a very occasional one in television) was limited to supporting roles, which he offered in around 35 appearances between 1947 and 1967.

The actress Ester Carloni was his sister.
