For a few years, between the mid-1970s and the early 1980s, he was among the most requested young actors in Italian cinema, appearing in many films, although mainly in supporting roles. At that time he was hailed for "genius and recklessness" because of his excesses, which were extensively discussed by Italian gossip columns.
