Carlo Pisacane

Carlo Pisacane (2 February 1889 – 9 June 1974) was an Italian actor who performed in over 70 films, including spaghetti Westerns like Death Rides a Horse (1968) and parodies like For a Few Dollars Less (1966). He is best remembered for his appearances in comedic classics, such as Big Deal on Madonna Street and its sequel Audace colpo dei soliti ignoti, in which he played the elderly and gluttonous small-time crook Capannelle. He also is known for his role as the miserly Jewish merchant Abacuc in For Love and Gold.
