Through a confluence of circumstances, in 1976, Antonelli got to work for director Luchino Visconti (DEATH IN VENICE) in his last film, L'INNOCENTE. Visconti intended the title roles to be played by Alain Delon and Romy Schneider. But Delon was under long-term contract, and the $1,000,000 that his producers wanted to release him was considered too much; and Schneider was pregnant at the time, so Visconti had to work with Antonelli and Giancarlo Giannini, thus reuniting the stars of HOW FUNNY CAN SEX BE? In the period drama L'INNOCENTE, Giannini plays the philandering husband of Antonelli, who doesn't mind her husband's affairs as long as he is discreet. But when Antonelli takes a lover, Giannini loses his appetite for dalliances. Franco Mannino's score won an Italian "Oscar" as Best Score, and was released on a DRG CD in 1997. Analysis Film Releasing distributed the picture in the U.S. in 1979 as THE INNOCENT.
