Born in

The Abandoned. In the second half of the 1950s he started working as assistant director, notably collaborating with Michelangelo Antonioni and his uncle Luchino Visconti. In 1959 he collaborated with Luigi Malerba to the libretto of the Franco Mannino's opera Hatikwa, and in the same period he started working in theatre as an assistant director.[1]

Visconti made his feature film debut in 1962, with A Milanese Story. During his career he alternated great commercial successes such as The Lady of Monza and unexpected bombs such as Il caso Pisciotta, as well as critical acclaims and failures. He launched the career of several actors, and generally preferred to not work with major established stars. His films were mainly independent and wholly or partly self-funded.[1]

He was married to Princess Francesca Patrizia

Ruspoli.[1]

35mm copies of all his films, as well as screenplays and photographic material related to his career are held by the Cineteca Nazionale in Rome.[1]
