Rodolfo Pietro Filiberto Raffaello Guglielmi di Valentina d'Antonguolla (May 6, 1895 - August 23, 1926), known professionally as Rudolph Valentino and nicknamed »The Latin Lover« , was an Italian actor based in the United States who starred in several well-known silent films including »The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse« , »The Sheik« , »Blood and Sand« , »The Eagle« , and »The Son of the Sheik.« Valentino was a sex symbol of the 1920s, known in Hollywood as the »Latin Lover« (a title invented for him by Hollywood moguls), the »Great Lover« , or simply »Valentino« .
His early death at the age of 31 caused mass hysteria among his fans, further cementing his place in early cinematic history as a cultural film icon. Wikipedia (English) Matthias Adler-Drews holds a diploma in translation (Japanese/Korean) and is always in search of literary gems.
