Peppino De Filippo
Naples, 24 August 1903 – 27 January 1980
Illegitimate son of playwright Eduardo Scarpetta and Luisa De Filippo, brother of Eduardo e Titina De Filippo was born in Naples in Via Bausan n° 28/o, with current entrance from Via Vittoria Colonna n° 10/a. After several theatrical experiences always generic roles, in 1931 he founded with his brothers the Humor Theatre Company: the De Filippo, is a very successful experience: tours throughout Italy, new comedies, criticisms, and theaters always full. In 1944, due to constant quarrels with his brother Eduardo, Peppino left the company. This separation will give way to Peppino to find a style as an author, distinguished by Eduardo for the tone of his plays, lighter. Even as an actor Peppino will show its versatility; remember in particular two interpretations that give the demonstration of the capabilities of Peppino out of bounds of the brilliant and dialect: the Theatre de Caretaker by Harold Pinter, directed by Edmond Fenoglio in 1977 with Ugo Haystacks and Lino Capolicchio, Harpagon in the miser by James, in the same year, for the Publisher publishes Marotta, Peppino's autobiography a family hard. Peppino De Filippo is not only related to the theatre, its great popularity is due mainly to the movies, and on television, his partnership with Totò in several films has created one of the most famous and acclaimed Italian film comedy pairs. The two actors, in fact had an extraordinary understanding and ability to compensate, and Peppino De Filippo may be regarded as arguably the best partner toto. Their films were extraordinary success with the public, although criticism of the time snobbasse them: particularly include: Toto Peppino and the. .. malafemy (memorable scene of the letter dictated by Totò and written by Peppino, become a true cult). He worked with Federico Fellini, Alberto Lattuada in variety lights: would then returned to work with master of Rimini in the episode Dr. Antonio's temptations in Boccaccio ' 70.
Equally memorable is the fictional character for the tv broadcast straight flush: Gaetano Pappagone humble servant, in the service of Cummendatore Peppino De Filippo, where converge the typical theatre masksNeapolitan (punchinello and Happy Sciosciamocca), inventor of a unique and exhilarating jargon.
Its pirichè, ecquequà, indindirintà card entered the spoken idioms common becoming ubiquitous. Married three times, his first wife Adele Carloni son Luigi who continued paterna secondly married actress and soubrette Lidia Machado, sister of Marisa Machado, married her after thirty years of cohabitation in 197, just hours before thedeath of the actress. In 1977 he married Lelia Mangano, his partner in the company. Like many famous actors, Peppino De Filippo starred in several films of the genre of the musicarello.
