Ze'ev Revach

Ze'ev Nachum Revach (; born 15 August 1940) is an Israeli comedian, film and theatre actor, and filmmaker. He has been one of the stars of the Israeli film genre known as Bourekas films. Israeli newspaper Haaretz described Revach's films as a "peculiarly Israeli genre of comic melodramas or tearjerkers... based on ethnic stereotypes that flourished [in Israel] in the 1960s and 1970s." Some of his films, notably Hasamba, Hagiga B'Snuker, and Charlie Ve'hetzi developed a local cult following. Early life Revach was born in Morocco, to a family of Moroccan Jewish descent. He immigrated with his family to Israel in 1948, at the age of eight. Revach served as a combat soldier in the Israel Defense Forces, prior to his acting career in Tel Aviv. He studied at the Beit Zvi School for the Performing Arts.
