After commercial works such as The Nun of Monza (with Anne Heywood and Hardy Krüger ), the sensational thriller Alone Against the Law (with Paola Pitagora and Terence Hill ) and the adventure film Michael Strogoff (with John Phillip Law and Mimsy Farmer ), he appeared in 1977 briefly took on the legacy of his uncle Luchino Visconti and staged the bourgeoisie epic Una spirale di nebbia (with Claude Jade , Marc Porel and Duilio del Prete ). It remained his only outstanding film, but critics see it primarily as his uncle's testament.
