Life and career
Born in Naples, Orlando attended the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Rome for two seasons, in 1953-54 and in 1954-55, without graduating.[1] He made his debut at 18, with the stage company of Renzo Ricci, along with Giorgio Albertazzi and Anna Proclemer.[1][2] His first important participation was in Shakespeare's King Lear, in 1955.[2]
In 1958 he began his television career in the role of Tybalt in a successful adaptation of Romeo and Juliet; he took part in a great number of films, TV-series and television movies, but became popular in 1973 thanks to the interpretation of the Commissioner Solmi, in the television series Qui squadra mobile.[1][2]
He is best remembered for his film roles in Elio Petri's Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion (1970) and Property Is No Longer a Theft (1973), Pupi Avati's Help Me Dream (1981) and Alberto Bevilacqua's Woman of Wonders, or La donna delle meraviglie (original title) (1985).[3][2]
At 57 years old, he died of a heart attack on the Teatro Flaiano stage in Rome during the rehearsal of the play Ad Eva aggiungi Eva.[1][2]
