Life and career

Born in Rome as Maurizio Di Lorenzo, Arena made his film debut at nineteen years old, with a small role in Bellezze in moto-scooter.[1] His breakout role came in 1956 with the role of Romolo in the successful Dino Risi's romance-comedy film Poveri ma belli.[1] Until the early 1960s Arena was one of the most popular actors in the Italian cinema, and was a regular feature of gossip columns for his tumultuous personal life.[1]

In later years his celebrity declined, and Arena found roles as a character actor in smaller films, and occasionally worked as a singer.[1] He became an alternative medicine healer with some local following.[1]

He died at age 45 following a heart attack, a complication from a long-standing renal condition.[2]

In 2008 a park was named after him in his native district Garbatella.[3]
