Avni Resuli (1926-1988)
Actor / director, one of the veterans of the Albanian Theater and Cinematography.
Born in Durres on September 3, 1926.
He started his artistic activity in the amateur movement in the city of Tirana. In 1948, it will become part of the “Popular Theatre”. This year, Resuli will perform the first role in the show “For those who are at sea /Per ata qe jane ne det”, which premiered on June 12.
With the “Popular Theater”, he will have a long career of 40 years and rich in roles, about 100 of them although secondary and episodic roles.
From these interpretations of the actor, we can mention: “The Prefect / Prefekti”; “Revizori”; “The strange /I cuditshmi”; “Shtate shaljanet”; “Three days of doomsday / Tre ditet e kjametit”; “Events at the factory / Ngjarje ne fabrike”; “A bride for Stasi / Nje nuse per Stasin”; “The second face / Fytyra e dyte”; “Arturo Ui”; “The general of the dead army / Gjenerali i ushtrise se vdekur”; “Dead River / Lumi i vdekur”; “Patient Doctor / Doktori pacient”; “The era before the trial / Epoka para gjyqit”; 
In cinematography, he was also active in several Albanian films, although he made a contribution:
“Detyre e posacme” (Special task) – 1963 / “Ngadhenjim mbi vdekjen” (Triumph over Death) – 1967 / “Njesiti guerril” (The Guerrila Unit) – 1969 / “Gjurma” (The Trace) – 1970 / “Zemra qe nuk plaken” (Hearts that don`t grow old” – 1977 etc.
From 1967 to 1974 he worked as a stage inspector but did not break away from acting on stage.
The special feature of his play is the aim to search for and find a separate space in the embodiment of the characters, especially by putting expressive elements of plasticity, expressive gesture, manner of speaking, etc. to the service of characterization.
