Funari is a stuntman in all respects and sometimes he also had some small roles as a 'real' actor. His name was discovered with an intuition of nemesi.

That's from "Paura in città" (1976)

Just an idea: what do you think about Augusto Funari?
He was both in "Paura in città" and "I leopardi di Churchill".

Is this him in Piedone lo sbirro (pic from the Spencer-Hill Datenbank)?

You got it.

I agree. It can't be the same man in all the pictures. But Augusto Funari was also in Lo chiamavano Trinità (1970) and is a stuntman so I think can answer this best Tibor because he is the stuntman expert!

Hmm... I'm not 100% sure about him being in ""Paura in città" either; at least judging from this picture... I'll check the film and report back later! Tibor, help us please!

Sorry, i don't saw this toppic and only now the PM!
Yes it's Funari! One of the stuntmen said it! We don't recognized him in Piedone lo sbirro. I knew him with beard from Spirito Santo...

OK, it's the same guy. I am convinced!

But his role in Passi di danza isn't a stuntman role from what I can remember...?

Perfect!

In "Passi di danza" he watches Rome with telescope for 2' at the beginning of the movie in a little gag... Maybe Praedaux, the director of 'I leopardi di Churchill' (1970), wants to give him a simply little role in 'Passi di danza...' (1973) too.
