Oyuncu · d. 1937 · San Giovanni in Persiceto, Italy
Liana Orfei (San Giovanni in Persiceto, June 6, 1937). Belonging to the famous Orfei circus dynasty, Liana is a multifaceted figure in Italian entertainment, capable of successfully ranging between circus, cinema, theater, and television. Active on the big screen primarily between the 1950s and 70s, she acted in approximately forty films, working with masters of the caliber of Federico Fellini (in the documentary The Clowns), Orson Welles, Mario Monicelli, and Dino Risi. Her versatility led her to perform in highly diverse genres, from commedia all'italiana to Westerns, and even horror and science fiction. In television, her participation in the musical television drama Scaramouche (1965) is well-remembered. She made her debut in the ring at just two years old as a clown (under the name Lacrima). In 1960, together with her brothers Nando and Rinaldo, she founded her own circus characterized by colossal and innovative productions, such as "Circorama" and the "Circus of the Thousand and One Nights"—the latter born from an idea by Fellini with costumes by Oscar winner Danilo Donati. In 1984, to respond to the industry's crisis, she founded the Golden Circus, an international festival that remains a reference point for circus arts today. In the theatrical field, she collaborated with distinguished names such as Eduardo De Filippo and Emma Gramatica, returning to the stage even in more recent years (in 2005 with the musical Se il tempo fosse un gambero). She was also a singer and entrepreneur: in the 1980s, she founded the theme park Divertimondo in Rimini, inspired by the emerging major amusement parks.

Film6.8TV MovieKomediFellini’nin sirke ve gerçeküstüne duyduğu büyük ilgi, son başyapıtlarından biri olan Palyaçolar’da gün ışığına çıktı. Film Fellini’nin çocukluğunda palyaçolarla ilgili saplantısını yansıtıyor ve küçük bir çocuğun, odasının penceresinden, kurulmakta olan bir sirki izlemesiyle başlıyor. Her ne kadar komik olsa ve “belgesel komedi” olarak adlandırılsa da, bu film otorite, yoksulluk, tevazu ve kibir gibi daha derin insanlık durumlarını inceler, bunların tümü de yörenin seks delisi berduşu, cüce bir rahibe ve sakat bir Mussolini destekçisi gibi karakterler olan palyaçolar aracılığıyla verilir. Ardından, Fellini’nin gençliğindeki bu palyaçoları Paris’te aramaya koyulup başlarına neler geldiğini öğrenmeye çalışmasıyla film, anlatıdan ve düşsel havasından uzaklaşıp daha belgesele yakın bir yaklaşım benimser.
