When I was young I was an usher in a huge Cinemascope theater and I Loved South Pacific. However on imdb they have him in a movie in 1996 and they say he died in 1994. This is acting!!!!

This to confuse anyone. I figure same, that Rossano make film appearance not to be released until later.
Another point to confusion: South Pacific (1958) to list his character as Emile de Becque. Rossano to portray French character is fine but is Emile supposed to be from France or Italy?
Not a major question but to make one curious because these countries do share common border with plenty of crossover names so nothing really to seem unusual there except in film they usually to go for more sterotype than this. -

One of my favourite musicals, I'm sure Emile was supposed to be French. He was often referred to as Nellie's "Frenchman" Brazzi had a wonderful accent. People that know about such things can probably identify it as an Italian accent, but to the average movie goer it could pass for French. Pardon me French people!

The IMDB dates are the release years, not the years the film was actually made. Sometimes a film is made and sits on a shelf for one or more years for various reasons, or the production spans a year or more and an actor's part was filmed at the beginning and then the film was finally released two years later.

You are correct. As a matter of fact, Rossano Brazzi and Donald Pleasance both list Fatal Frames (1996) as their last movie released a year or two after they died. (btw, see the thread "Pleasance's Last Movie" on his message board for more.)
