As a child, he joined the American College in Assiut Governorate, where he graduated from the primary stage until he obtained his baccalaureate degree at that time or high school, after which he joined the College of Law.
He was the first in his class during the four years. He is the great artist “Mansi Fahmy”, one of the geniuses of Egyptian art. He was nicknamed a monk of Egyptian art. His real name is Mansi Absakhron Fahmy, who was born in a village in Assiut Governorate on April 7, 1890.
After graduating from the Faculty of Law, he worked as an employee in the mixed courts in Assiut for a short period, then joined the judiciary until he became the judge of the mixed courts in all Egyptian courts.
He had two sons, one of whom was named Iskandar, who graduated from the Faculty of Law, and he worked in the field of cinema, and the second son, whose name was Fahmy, was raised morally undisciplined.
He had a relationship with the wife of one of his neighbors, who was traveling to work in Alexandria and returning on Thursdays and Fridays. Fahmy used to visit this neighbor’s wife during her husband’s absence from his work.
On one occasion, his neighbor’s wife offered him to kill the husband in order to clear the air for them, but Fahmy refused to match her demand, so the neighbor established a relationship with a mechanic and his workshop is under her house.
I proposed to him the idea of getting rid of the husband, and he agreed and arranged for her a plan to invite Fahmy to spend a night with her, and the mechanic would call the husband to tell him that his wife was cheating on him to come from Alexandria
And if the wife leaves the door of the house open for him, and after the husband climbs up and finds Fahmy with his wife, they will clash with each other. He advised the wife to make Fahmy drink as much alcohol as possible.
Indeed, after Fahmy went up to his neighbor, the mechanic called the deceived husband, who came in a hurry from Alexandria, and when the husband entered, he found Fahmy on his bed with his wife, he clashed with him and he was very drunk.
The police came to arrest Fahmy, who was unable to prove his innocence, and who confirmed that he saw a ghost killing the husband and could not identify his features because of his drunkenness.
His father, Mansi Fahmy, who was still a judge at the time, insisted that he be the judge in this case. Indeed, he sentenced his son to death by hanging despite his knowledge and certainty that his son was not killed, but his justification was that his son’s poor morals was what led him to what was in it.
On the day of the execution, he insisted that he be a witness to the execution of his son. After the execution of the sentence, he buried his son, then submitted his resignation from the judiciary and sat in his home for 6 years in a state of severe depression.
When the great artist Najib Al-Rihani heard his story, he went to him and offered him to work with him in the theater and that there was a role he would play that was the same as his role in his son’s case.
He later participated in the Association for the Promotion of Arab Representation, after which he worked with Munira al-Mahdiyya, Ali al-Kassar, Abd al-Rahman Rushdi, George Abyad, and Youssef Wehbe.
Like about 3 films with Kawkab Al Sharq Umm Kulthum, they are Aida, Wedad and Dinars, and like 5 other films with Laila Murad, and a similar with Najib Al-Rihani, the film Salama fi Khair.
