Enrico Montesano (born 7 June 1945) is an Italian actor and showman.

Career

Montesano comes from a family involved in theatre, and he made his debut in 1966 in a show named Humor nero, alongside of Vittorio Metz. Later he became a very popular actor both on theatre and on television, thanks to his burlesque and brilliant style, and so during seventies he took part in several Italian comedies. He is probably best known for the role of Armando "Er Pomata" Pellicci in the cult movie Febbre da cavallo (1976), directed by Steno, but also for the role of Caleb, the good thief from Il ladrone (1980), directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile. Montesano won a David di Donatello as best new director for the movie A me mi piace (1985), in which he is both actor and director. His career continue from 1967 to 2010.

Personal life

Montesano is married to Teresa Trisorio. He is the father of six children: from a previous marriage (to Tamara Moltrasio) he has two sons and one daughter (Tommaso, Oliver, Lavinia); another son (Mattia) was born to him by a longtime fiancée, Marina Spadaro; and two more (Enrico Michele, and Marco Valerio) he has by his present wife. He is an avid fan of the football team S.S. Lazio.

In late 2022 he was disqualified from RAI's Dancing with the Stars show after pictures posted from a audition showed him wearing a shirt with a symbol and motto of the Decima MAS unit that was active in the Nazi-Fascist Salò Republic puppet state under Nazi German occupation and committed some of the most serious crimess in wartime Italy by systematically carrying out public executions, massacres of civilian towns, torture, rapes and also assisting the Nazi genocide by assisting the SS in round-ups and "punishment operations" against civilians.[1][2][3][4]
