Enrico Viarisio (3 December 1897 in Turin – 1 November 1967 in Milan) was an Italian theatre and cinema actor. Equipped of a fine and elegant humour, Viarisio was discovered by actress Paola Pezzaglia, who cast him at 19 as "brillante" in her own theatre company.〔Mario Ferrigni (diretti da), ''Annali del teatro italiano, Volume Secondo, 1921-1923'', Milano, ed. Amedeo Nicola & C., 1923.〕 His career continued with the role of ''amoroso'' or male lover in the Carini-Gentili-Betrone theatre company, then passed to Talli-Melato-Betrone, Antonio Gandusio, Dyne Galli, and Nino Besozzi, and the Merlini-Cialente-Bagni company. To raise the company's small profits, Viarisio became the repertory comedian. Bourgeois audiences appreciated Viarisio's "brilliance" — richly communicative, effervescent, and perfectly to their comfort — in amusing light comedies. In the sentimental comedies and white-telephone cinema of the 1930s, Viarisio was a constant figure, with his moustache and his black, shining hair combed to the back. He was the elegant interpreter of various pleasant stories adapted to film from the stage, such as ''Non ti conosco più'' (1936) by Nunzio Malasomma, ''L'uomo che sorride'' (1936) and ''Questi ragazzi'' (1937) by Mario Mattoli. Often he remained in the limits of the genre, but in some cases showed admirable creativity in his performances, keeping them fresh and memorable. This can be seen to best advantage in films like ''Il cappello a tre punte'' (1934) by Mario Camerini, ''Cavalleria'' (1936) by Goffredo Alessandrini and ''Quattro passi fra le nuvole'' (1942) by Allesandro Blasetti. During the postwar period he was dedicated above all to the revue, playing opposite Wanda Osiris (''Domani è sempre domenica'', 1946–47; ''Si stava meglio domani'', 1947–48; ''Il diavolo custode'', 1950–51) and Isa Barzizza (''Valentina'', 1955). In the 1950s and '60s he lent his impeccable style and his sense of irony to television as well. Still memorable is his participation in ''Carosello'' in the spot for Germany (on the air from 1957 to 1965). He remains known for his signature phrase, ''"Ullalà è una cuccagna!"'' ==Selected filmography== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Enrico Viarisio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
