Carlo De Filippi was a young Italian actor in Rome, Lazio, Italy. His most successful role was the portrayal of 17-year old Giuseppe Pelosi in Pasolini, un delitto italiano (1995). Pelosi is known as the man who hit and run over writer/director Pier Paolo Pasolini on November 1975, in a crime that shocked the nation.
Filippi brings all the qualities given for the teenage male hustler who later on became known as a murderer. He's young, full of energy, deceptive and mysterious.
Carlo's previous film experience was an uncredited role in Für immer Mery (1989).
Sadly, he died from a drug overdose a couple of days after his 23rd birthday and Pasolini, un delitto italiano (1995) marked as first and only important contribution to the world of cinema.
