Ruy de Carvalho
Rui Alberto Rebelo Pires de Carvalho (born March 1, 1927 in Lisbon ) is a Portuguese actor.
Life
After graduating from commercial school in Lisbon, he worked as an amateur actor from 1942 in the theater of the Mocidade Portuguesa , the compulsory youth organization of the authoritarian Estado Novo regime. On the advice of his artistic director there, the popular actor Ribeirinho , Carvalho enrolled at the National Conservatory (now ESTC ), where he studied acting from 1945 to 1950, and later attended the singing school of the State Opera Teatro Nacional de São Carlos .
For the first time he appeared in 1947 in the comedy Rapazes de hoje (Eng: Boys of Today) on a regular theater stage, in the Teatro Nacional D. Maria II . Since his role as Eric Birling in 1951 in Priestley's Está lá fora um Inspector (English title: An inspector is coming ) at the Teatro Avenida , he has been considered one of the most important actors of his generation. In 1961 he co-founded the Teatro Moderno , where he participated in all productions, until he switched to the management of the Teatro Experimental in Porto in 1963. At the side of the popular Raul Solnado , he played in 1975 in the greatest stage success after the Carnation Revolution , Schweik na Segunda Guerra Mundial (German: Schweik in World War II). From 1977 to 2000 he was a member of the Teatro Nacional D. Maria II ensemble.
After he had already taken on his first film role in 1951, published in 1952 by Eram Duzentos Irmãos (German: There were 200 brothers; director: Armando Vieira Pinto ), he appeared regularly in television films, TV series and feature films, including several films by Manoel de Oliveira . However, he remained above all a stage actor.
In the 2007 election of the 100 most important Portuguese ( Os Grandes Portugueses ) organized by the public television broadcaster Rádio e Televisão de Portugal , he was voted 50th.
