VOTE For Your TOP 15 FAVOURITE SW SUPPORTING ACTORS 1948-1980
SW Supporting Actors have contributed 100s and 100s of Classic Performances
Italian, German and Spanish Actors dominate this category with such All Time GREATS as
HORST FRANK JOACHIM FUCHSBERGER GORDON MITCHELL GILBERT ROLAND ETC
Of course I like to see the faces of Mario Brega, Nello Pazaffino, Chris Huerta and all those guys, but just like (for instance) John Wayne or Randolph Scott theyâre not among my real heroes
If I had to pick only three: Sancho (simply love that guy), Pistilli (you love to hate him) and Sambrel (a mysterious aura hangs around this fella; I donât know what an aura is, of course, but thatâs what makes him so mysterious)

Yes Sancho, Pistilli, Sambrell and most of these lovely supporting actors are SW fun.
They need to have a POLL and be appreciated as they support the Lead Actors nicely.
SD: Again a good list, but I miss Dan van Husen, Raimund Harmstorf (he was in Zanna Bianca and Un Genio, due compari, un pollo).
Is Horst Frank supporting actor or leading actor? If he isnât a leading one, maybe you could add him to your list of the supporting actors.
I will wait some days before I vote, maybe otherâs have also some ideas, who is missing.
HORST FRANK is a supporting actor and he is ALREADY in the Poll 2nd from the Top !
I will add Raimund Harmstorf & Dan Van Husen I checked them out , both OK.
When you do vote please vote for 15 Supporting actors
Thanks for voting Silver much appreciated
I have added LORENZO ROBLEDO as he has a Magnificent SW Career Credits PLL Films etc
I have added Jose Canalejas who was good in 1 or 2 SWs supporting roles.
Lorenzo slipped from my mind >:( and he is outstanding so glad you reminded me.
My vote excludes quasi-leads, such as Woff, Fajardo, Piero Lulli or Fernando Sancho. I donât know how to add actors to the existing list. The ones listed below are real supporting actors:
Here they are, in alphabetical order:
I had to edit this list down from an initial list I had, leaving out a great deal of good names: Adolfo Lastretti, Lorenzo Robledo, Alfonso Rojas, TomĂĄs Torres, Giampiero Albertini, Ricardo MoyĂĄn, VĂctor Israel, Luis Induni, Franco Ressel, Pietro Ceccarelli, Bruno Corazzari, Giuseppe Addobbati, Luis MarĂn, Alejandro Ulloa (the actor, not the DP), Carlos Ronda, Ăngel Lombarte, Ricardo PalaciosâŠ
I didnât see his name listed, but I gotta vote for Joseph Egger; the Austrian comedian, who played the train-hating âprophetâ that Manko hides-out with in FAFDM⊠that scene really was classic⊠living so close to the railroad-tracks that locomotive-steam actually penetrated the shack.
