Pinuccio Ardia
Pinuccio Ardia (actually Roberto Ardia ; born August 21, 1914 in Naples , † February 15, 1994 in Rome ) was an Italian actor .
Life
Ardia didn't come to film until the mid-1960s, when he was cast in about 20 strips from then on. His roles ranged from serious to mostly comical roles, including his best-known in his film debut as Baron in Dino Risi's Our Boss is a Lady . The odd, "bizarre character actor" was also seen on television; sometimes under the English pseudonym Joel Hardy . Ardia's specialty were dialect roles in which the mustached, medium-sized and skinny actor brought characters from his Neapolitan homeland to life. For television, he played a few guest roles in television series.
