Life and career
Born in Comiso, Province of Ragusa, Pelligra started his acting career in the second half of the sixties, and after several minor roles he got his first role of weight in 1972, in Marco Leto's Black Holiday.[1] Following the critical success of the film, from then he started appearing, often in secondary roles, in several art films, working with Roberto Rossellini, Paolo and Vittorio Taviani, Marco Tullio Giordana and Peter Del Monte, among others.[1] Pelligra's popularity is however mainly linked to a series of poliziotteschi, sceneggiate and mafia films, in which he specialized in roles of criminals and villains.[1]

gollark: Seems like poor etymology then.
gollark: Is that it? Seems odδ.

gollark: In a safely distanced way.
