Biography

Ugo Tognazzi was an Italian actor whose film career covered four decades and made him a star across Europe. Born in Cremona, he worked as a bookkeeper in a salami factory as a teenager and acted in amateur theatricals before reaching the screen in 1950 at the age of 28. He built his early reputation in Neapolitan features and by the following decade was a middle-aged European star, playing bon vivants and adulterous husbands in farcical comedy and sardonic romps, many of them for Marco Ferreri, among them La Grande Bouffe (1973). He also took world-weary leads in political drama and grim satire. His most popular part was the drag club owner Renato Baldi in La Cage aux Folles (1978), which produced two sequels. In 1981 he won the Cannes Film Festival award for Tragedy of a Ridiculous Man (1981). He directed a few films of his own.
