Actor Glauco Onorato (1936)

Dario Argento’s comedy-drama film, The Five Days of Milan (1973), takes place in bustling Milan during the anti-Austrian revolt of 1848. It follows the story of two unlikely companions, petty criminal Cainazzo and baker Romulus, who become caught up in the turbulent events of the time. Amidst a cast of idealists and patriots, including aristocrats, opportunistic individuals, bloodthirsty adventurers, and traitors, Romulus stands out as someone who instinctively understands the people’s point of view. Reluctantly swept up in the chaos and injustice around them, Cainazzo and Romulus are witnesses to history.
