Antun Nalis
Antun Nalis (9 February 1911 – 14 February 2000), a.k.a. Tonči Nalis, was a Croatian actor. Antun Nalis was born in Zadar, which was part of Austria-Hungary at the time. After World War I Zadar became part of Italy, which later helped Nalis to play in Italian movies and portray Italian characters. Nalis began to build his film career after World War Two. His first screen appearance in 1949 film ''Zastava'' almost became his last. In the film he played an Ustasha colonel and in the break between shooting he went to the store to buy groceries, forgetting to change his clothes.

Not discouraged by the incident, Nalis continued with his career, appearing in many classics of 1950s and 1960s Croatian and Yugoslav cinema. After playing villains in his early career, in this period Nalis established himself in comedic ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
