Attention to his impressive filmography:
Ladri di biciclette, Miracolo a Milano, Senso, I soliti ignoti, Rocco e i suoi fratelli, Salvatore Giuliano & Il gattopardo. 7 films on TSPDT’s top 1000, but… wait a minute, that’s not all: Vivere in pace, Bellissima, Estate violenta, Le avventure di Pinocchio. All personal favorites.
And more: Processo alla città, Le notti bianche, I magliari, L’innocente… Awesome.
Sad loss.
A very great screenwriter. He work with Visconti is especially important.
