So, what are the ten masculine names that can be highlighted?

Toni Servillo

A native of the town of Afragola, Tony Servillo won his name not only as an actor, but also as a talented director. He was one of the founders of Teatro Studio in the city of Caserta (Caserta) in 1977. One of the most prominent films in which Servillo starred was Propaganda, and he was renowned worldwide for his films Amazing (Il divo: La spettacolare vita di Giulio Andreotti) and Girl at the Lake (La ragazza del lago).

The work of Paolo Sorrentino's “Great Beauty” (La Grande Bellezza), where Tony played a major role, has collected many prestigious awards, including the Golden Globe and the Oscars.

Hugo Tognazzi

Despite the fact that Hugo Tonyazzi was once very popular, before coming to success he overcame many difficulties and downfalls. Nevertheless, Tonyazzi will be remembered as one of the representatives of classic comedians. Perhaps his best work can be called participation in the film "Cage for Eccentrics" (Le cage aux folles), where he played the role of owner of the cabaret Renato Baldi (Renato Baldi).

Alberto Sordi

That's who without hesitation can be called one of the most talented comedians in Italy. Sordi was almost the founder of the popular Italian comedy genre, popular in the 1950s and 1960s.

He repeatedly directed and even wrote scripts for films. The most striking roles of the master of reincarnation include his image of a “little man” in the painting “Petty-Petty Bourgeois” (Un Borghese piccolo piccolo).

Toto (Toto ')

This stunning comedian has more than once graced many films with his presence. Despite the fact that he played in many films, Toto often admitted that comedy is his favorite genre.

Vittorio Gassman

In his youth, Vittorio Gassman was not only a very successful basketball player, but also a very talented actor. He first appeared on the scene in 1943, and three years later Gassman set off to conquer the big screen. His first significant role was the execution of the image of the criminal in the film "Bitter Rice" (Riso Amaro).

Gian Maria Volonte '

Gian Maria Volonte graduated from the National Academy of Dramatic Art in Rome in 1957. Soon after completing his studies, Jan Maria began working in the theater and on television. However, today the actor was remembered for his role in the film “For a Fistful of Dollars” (Un Pugno Pieno di Dollari).

Marcello Mastroianni

This amazing and successful actor has long walked through thorns to the stars: his life was far from sweet. During World War II, he was sent to a German prison, but he managed to escape to Venice.
