Life and career

Born Luciano Sanipoli in Genoa, he made his acting debut in 1939 in the Roman Calò's stage company Society of Mystery Shows.[1][2] Quite soon he was cast in leading roles in dramas, achieving popularity and critical appreciation after World War II for his performances in Detective Story and Anne of the Thousand Days (both represented in 1951) and winning a San Genesio Award in 1957, for his performance in Virginio Puecher's Il Revisore.[1]

Sanipoli made his film debut in 1942, starring in two adventure films based on Emilio Salgari's novels, Il figlio del Corsaro Rosso and Gli ultimi filibustieri, under the stage name Vittorio Sanni.[1] After war, he continued his film career with dozens of roles, even if mainly consisting of supporting or character roles.[1][2] While most of his performances were in Italy, he also worked on a number of co-productions with France such as La Reine Margot (1954).[3]

Sanipoli also had an intense career in television, being a quite regular presence in high-profile RAI series and TV movies.[1][2] He also worked on radio and as a voice actor.[1][2]

Sanipoli was married to stage actress Amalia D'Alessio.[1]

gollark: It says you can also do network boot which is cool.

gollark: No, it can, got mixed up with the 3Bnotplus.
gollark: Pretty sure it can do it natively, but you need to turn that option on by updating the firmware and setting an option in some thingy somewhere.
