Biography

Italian actor, Mr. Fabrizi, is famously recognized for his captivating portrayal of a charming lady-killer among a group of small-town youths in Federico Fellini's cinematic masterpiece, 'IVitelloni'.

Beginning his career on the stage and in variety revues in 1947, Mr. Fabrizi eventually transitioned into the world of film in 1952 with Francesco De Roberti's 'Carica Eroica'. His on-screen and off-screen persona became synonymous with his tireless philandering, making him a staple in the gossip columns of the dolce vita period.

Mr. Fabrizi's romantic escapades were often linked to a long list of actresses and high-society doyennes, captivating the public's attention. Although he rarely landed leading roles, the actor managed to appear in approximately 150 films, typically playing superficial, opportunistic sidekicks.
