In the 1960s, Horne moved to Italy and began working in Italian cinema, appearing in films such as "Il Posto" (1961) and "La lunga notte del '43" (1960). He also studied with the legendary acting teacher Lee Strasberg and later became an acting teacher himself, founding the HB Studio in Rome. Horne continued to work in both film and theatre throughout his career, and in 2007 he was honored with a lifetime achievement award by the Rome Film Fest. Today, he lives in Italy and continues to teach acting. The story of Geoffrey Horne is a testament to the power of following one's passions and pursuing a life in the arts.
