At home he was also known for (in addition to being the father of the "policeotesque" genre) as a writer of scripts and novelist. We're still talking, with some exceptions, of trash material for the most. It was his style after all.

The rude foul-mouthed strong Rome accent marshal (then inspector after de-militarization) and ex-thief Nico Giraldi nicknamed "Nico the pirate" better know as Er Monnezza, interpreted by a post-dubbed Tomás Milián, is the most famous character he created. As far as I know the Er Monnezza movies were exported only in Germany but the name change from Nico Giraldi to Tony Marroni.

No mention that it was one of inspirational muse of Quentin Tarantino?

I saw them live during the release of "For those about to rock...we salute you". As ear bleedingly loud as the band was, the canon shots were louder. It was awesome. Indoors.
