Franco Nero is the guest of honor at the ninth edition of the Italian film festival FilmingItaly - Los Angeles. At 82 years old and with more than 200 films behind him, he is an icon.

"The first time I came to Hollywood was 1966. It was beautiful. Every evening I went out to party with Paul Newman, James Stewart or colleagues of that caliber... Django had just been released in Italy and they called me here to shoot Camelot", he recalls to ANSA before receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award.
