Alberto Pasquali (1882–1929) was an Italian stage and screen actor, famous for his religious characters.
Alberto Pasquali was born in Turin in 1882. As the son of a mother who acted in Venetian dialect plays, he approached the stage at an early age, where he managed to obtain important parts at the most important stage companies, among which were those of Ferruccio Garavaglia, Emma Gramatica and Di Lorenzo-Falconi. His film debut was in Christus (1916), directed by Giulio Antamoro but finished by Enrico Guazzoni. Pasquali played the title role. Antamoro went to Egypt to shoot several scenes amidst the ruins, adding even scenes not mentioned in the Bible, in which Christ wanders among the ruins of Luxor, deploring the decay of the world. After the success of this film, Pasquali often played Christ and acted in various religious films and plays, as in the film Redenzione (Carmine Gallone, 1919) starring Diana Karenne as Mary Magdalene, and The Twice Born Woman (Malcolm Strauss, 1921), the latter made in the US, and with Deyha Loti as Mary Magdalene. Moreover, Pasquali played St Frances of Assisi in Frate Francesco (1927), again directed by Antamoro.
Among Alberto Pasquali's films were both diva films with e.g. Maria Jacobini, Diana Karenne, Helena Makowska, Italia Almirante Manzini, Linda Pini, Elena Sangro and Marcella Albani, but also period piece dramas like Leonardo Da Vinci (Giulia Cassini-Rizzotto, Mario Corsi), Il fornaretto di Venezia (Mario Almirante, 1923) and I due Foscari (Mario Almirante, 1923) and adventure films like Kiff Tebbi (Mario Camerini, 1928). Until 1929, Pasquali acted in some 30 films, the last one being the German film Anschluß um Mitternacht (1929), directed by Mario Bonnard and starring Marcella Albani. After this role, he returned to Italy, where he suddenly died in Milan at the age of 46, on 14 February 1929.

I had seen Alberto a few times before that afternoon sitting in that same spot, i don't know why I approached untill that day, but i was sure of one thing, he was going to say no if I asked for his permission to take him a photo for the project, I had nothing to lose so i approached anyway.
To convince him was tough task, he wasn't very friendly, but patient enough to let me explain the project. At the end he said whatever you want, so here's his picture. Alberto is a guitarist from Veracruz, he has been living in Puebla for 7 or 47 years, I can't give you the ral number because as we were talking there was orchestra playing, which make difficult to listen him.

A Alberto ya lo había visto antes sentado en ese mismo lugar, no sé por qué hasta ese día me acerqué, pero de algo estaba seguro, me iba a decir que no si le pedía permiso para tomarle una foto para el proyecto, no perdía nada con intentar así que todas maneras me acerqué.
Convencerlo fue díficil, él no fue del todo amigable, pero si lo bastante paciente como para dejarme explicarle el proyecto. Al final me dijo como usted quiera y aquí está su foto. Alberto es un guitarrista de Veracruz, que ha vivido en Puebla 7 o 47 años, no confirmo el tiempo porque mientras hablabamos había una orquestra tocando aquella tarde lo que me dificultó entenderle.

Alberto's Mexican Food, if you live in Southern California then you probably heard of this chain of Mexican restaurants, this location in Temecula was originally a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant but it closed a while back in 2009 I believe and then Alberto's moved in.
This is a look at the billboard, if the 'Drive Thru' part looks similar its because it was part of KFC's sign, they just took down the 'KFC' sign and put up their own!
