Guglielmo Inglese (24 November 1892 â€" 1 January 1962) was an Italian
actor, radio personality and playwright.Born in Naples into a family
of Apulian origins, Inglese debuted on stage as a child actor at 2
years old, and then he was part of some of the most important stage
companies of the time, including the one led by Raffaele Viviani in
1920. He abandoned the theater to devote himself to radio, with which
he got a large popularity thanks to his comic monologues caricaturing
typical Southern stock characters, notably the "peasant from Apulia".
He made his cinema debut when he already was mature aged, in 1948,
mostly cast in character roles in which he reprised his radio
repertoire. He was often a sidekick of Totò, both in cinema and on
stage. He was also author of several riviste.
