Gian Maria Volonte [1933-1994] Italian
Rank: 105
Actor


Gian Maria Volontè was an Italian actor, remembered for his outspoken left-wing leanings and fiery temper on and off-screen. He is perhaps most famous outside of Italy for his roles in four Spaghetti Western films: Ramon Rojo and El Indio in Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More, El Chuncho Munoz in Damiano Damiani's A Bullet for the General and Professor Brad Fletcher in Sergio Sollima's Face to Face.
