Biography |
Emmanuel "Manos" Katrakis (Greek: Εμμανουήλ (Μάνος) Κατράκης; 14 August 1908 – 3 September 1984) was a Greek actor of theater and film. Along with actor/director Kostas Leloudas, he acted in his first movie To Lavaro tou '21 in 1928. He later performed in the Ethniko Theatro (the National Theatre) in 1931. During the 1930s, he continued acting in theatrical plays (he was friends with the maestro Dimitris Mitropoulos). He married Anna Lori in 1943. He took part in the resistance as a member of EAM/ELAS[citation needed] and after refusing to sign a declaration of repentance during the Greek Civil War of 1946–49, he was exiled to Makronisos, along with such other well-known figures as Yiannis Ritsos, Nikos Koundouros, Mikis Theodorakis and Thanasis Veggos. In the 1950s he returned to Athens from Makronisos but there was little acting work. He was handed both small and big roles in plays and films. In 1954, he married his third and last wife named Linda Alma (real name Eleni Malioufa). Shortly before his death, he filmed his last and best movie Taxidi sta Kythira, the Journey to Kythera/Kythira, with director Theo Angelopoulos. |

Ο Μάνος Κατράκης (Καστέλι Κισσάμου, 14 Αυγούστου 1908 – 2 Σεπτεμβρίου 1984) ήταν Έλληνας ηθοποιός του θεάτρου και του κινηματογράφου. Στο θέατρο συνεργάστηκε με ιερά τέρατα όπως ο Μυράτ και η Κοτοπούλη κερδίζοντας τον θαυμασμό και των πιο απαιτητικών κριτικών, ενώ μέσω του κινηματογράφου έγινε γνωστός και αγαπητός σε όλους τους Έλληνες. Επιβλητική φυσιογνωμία, ψηλός, ευθυτενής, με χαρακτηριστική ηχηρή φωνή και έναν αέρα αριστοκρατικότητας, υποδυόταν συνήθως χαρακτήρες στην κορυφή της κοινωνικής ιεραρχίας (βασιλείς, γαιοκτήμονες-τσιφλικάδες, εφοπλιστές, βιομηχάνους, πολιτικούς κλπ). |
