Ughetto Bertucci

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ughetto Bertucci (actually Ugo Bertucci ; born October 18, 1907 in Rome , † June 25, 1966 ibid) was an Italian actor .

Life

Bertucci was working as a fruit seller in a Roman market and owned a shabby truck when Mario Mattòli wrote a role for him, that of a fruit dealer in the 1945 film La vita ricomincia . The diminutive, lean Bertucci now pursued in addition to its market career a second more numerous than supporting cast films whose characters he with his cheerful, light-hearted mood alongside comedian likes of Toto , Erminio Macario or Walter Chiari brought to life. Although he never escaped his once established cliché and was never seen in larger roles, he was able to stay in the film business until the end of the 1950s and then slowly withdrew from the industry. He made his last film in 1961, again for Mario Mattoli.
