Mino Doro (6 May 1903 – 13 April 1992) was an Italian actor who appeared in more than a hundred films between 1932 and 1970. Doro generally played supporting and character roles. He appeared as a blackshirt in the 1934 Fascist propaganda film The Old Guard.[1][2]

In popular magazines of the 1930s, Doro was portrayed as the Italian equivalent of the American actor Clark Gable.[3]
