Walter Chiari, stage name of Gualtiero Annichiarico, (2 March 1924 - 20 December 1991) was an Italian stage and screen actor, mostly in comedy roles.
Born in Verona, Chiari achieved a certain degree of international success in films such as The Little Hut, Bonjour Tristesse, Chimes at Midnight and The Valachi Papers. He appeared opposite Anna Magnani in Luchino Visconti's 1951 film Bellissima. He also appeared on Broadway in the 1961 musical The Gay Life.
He appeared in They're a Weird Mob in 1966, based on a popular Australian novel by John O'Grady. He also appeared in the Australian film Squeeze a Flower in 1970.
Chiari died in Milan in 1991 in a strange situation in a private hospital closed by Italian Police. Chiari's body had been found in the garden of the hospital (where lot of old persons have been found dead) with no brain in his skull. Police at the begin said probably Chiari's body had been used in satanic rite. After a few hours, they said that Chiari had died because of mistakes made in some tests that were performed in this private hospital.
All this story now has been hidden by the family of the actor.
