Baldwin Dakile, the actor who played the little boy Bodo in the films Flatfoot in Africa und Flatfoot in Egypt, has probably been dead for many years. At least this is what Neri Parenti, assistant director on "Flatfoot in Africa", reports in his book "Due palle... di Natale", which was recently published in Italy. In it, he tells an anecdote about how it happened that he celebrated Christmas 1977 together with Baldwin and his mother at his family's home in Florence. The very beautyful anecdote ends with Parenti receiving a letter from Baldwin's mother several years later, telling him that her son had been killed in a youth revolt against apartheid oppression. |
