I have a way of filming things and staging them and designing sets. There were times when I thought I should change my approach, but in fact, this is what I like to do. It's sort of like my handwriting as a movie director. And somewhere along the way, I think I've made the decision: I'm going to write in my own handwriting. ↗

The Opera was a very cold film, a hopeless and dark film, no hope, no love. ↗

Then I realized my early work did have something special that audiences adored apart from what I humbly thought about them. They occupy a distinguished niche in Italian film history and probably always will. ↗

I'm a character actor but unlike a lot of character actors, I don't look radically different from film to film and there was a bunch of them at once. ↗
