We will only be inducting one new person for each of these categories so everyone gets just one vote for each.
Daniela Giordano
A veteran of 9 Italian westerns this former Miss Italy became a welcome and familiar face amongst the regular actresses appearing in spaghetti westerns. Find a Place to Die, Five Man Army, Challenge of the McKennas, Long Day of the Massacre and Have a Good Funeral Friendā¦Sartana Will Pay all featured the beautiful Sicilian as well as a bunch of Trinity era Comedies.
Cristina Galbo
Probably better known for her work in the horror and Giallo genres Galbo made just two spaghetti westerns. However, her role as Juliet in the Shakespearean adaptation Fury of Johnny Kid and as a saloon girl in Twice a Judas were so strong we canāt help erroniously thinking she must have been in more. Galbo went on to marry current Hall of Famer Peter Lee Lawrence after they met on set of Johnny Kid.
Lorella de Luca
Billed as Hally Hammond, Lorella de Luca made only two westerns but they were the two Ringo films directed by her husband Duccio Tessari so she has become a memorable and beloved face to fans.
Alberto Cardone
Credits on a couple of German westerns aside, Cardone made six westerns including 7 Dollars on the Red, $1000 on the Black, Wrath of God and Kidnapping. Cardone rarely had a decent sized budget but always managed to make the most of his resources and left a consistent body of work.
Rafael Romero Marchent
Younger brother of current Hall of Famer Joaquin, Rafael Romero Merchant was similarly prolific and made 13 westerns including Awkward Hands, Sartana Kills Them All, Garringo and Dead Men Donāt Count. As a Spaniard a number of his films were eurowesterns rather than spaghettis but his work with actors such as Anthony Steffen, Peter Lee Lawrence and Gianni Garko places him squarely at the genres heart.
Iāll start things off with:
Alberto Cardone (Director)
Daniela Giordano (Actress)
