The Profile

Italian actor, comedian, screenwriter and film director from Pelago (Florence). Co-founder of I Giancattivi with Francesco Nuti and Athina Cenci; later wrote, directed and starred in acclaimed comedies including Ad ovest di Paperino and Belle al bar.

Co-founded I Giancattivi; directed and starred in Ad ovest di Paperino (1981) and Belle al bar (1994); also known for Benvenuti in casa Gori and Zitti e mosca.

Ex-Giancattivi lynchpin Alessandro Benvenuti emerges from Florence’s 1970s theater scene to craft sharp, offbeat comedies. Reviews highlight Ad ovest di Paperino as the trio’s swan song and celebrate Belle al bar for treating a difficult theme with care and wit. The tone is affectionate, the verdict upbeat.
