Life and career
Born in Rome into a humble family, a former peddler of dishes, Lechner was discovered in a tavern by Franco Castellacci and Pierfrancesco Pingitore, who entered him in their cabaret company "Il Bagaglino".[2] He got a large popularity in cinema as the sidekick of Tomas Milian in a successful series of half-serious poliziottesco films directed by Bruno Corbucci.[2] He was also partner of Enzo Cannavale in a number of comedy films.[3] He died at age 56 as a result of complications following a major surgical operation.[2] Decades later, his characteristic slang, and particularly his distinctive "tze tze", remain popular among the younger generations.[3]
