# | Fact |
---|
1 | In the middle of her audition for King Kong (1976), he turned to his son and described Meryl Streep as "Troppo brutta per King Kong" ("Too ugly for King Kong), assuming she couldn't understand him if he spoke in Italian. She then replied in perfect Italian that she was very sorry to have disappointed him, and left him stunned. |
2 | Great-grandfather of Jade Thompson. |
3 | Granduncle of Luigi De Laurentiis Jr.. |
4 | Ex-brother-in-law of Rocco Roy Mangano, Patrizia Mangano and Natascia Mangano. |
5 | Children with first wife Silvana Mangano: Veronica De Laurentiis, Raffaella De Laurentiis, Federico De Laurentiis and Francesca DeLaurentiis. |
6 | Children with second wife Martha De Laurentiis: Carolyna De Laurentiis and Dina De Laurentiis. |
7 | His only son Federico De Laurentiis (28 February 1955 - 15 July 1981) died at 26, in airplane crash. |
8 | Grandfather of Dino A. De Laurentis, Giada De Laurentiis, Eloisa De Laurentiis and Igor De Laurentiis. |
9 | Younger brother of Luigi De Laurentiis. |
10 | Uncle of Aurelio De Laurentiis. |
11 | Changed the name of the big screen adaptation of Thomas Harris's "Red Dragon" novel to Manhunter (1986). This was due to the fact that he had a flop with Long de xin (1985) ("The Year of the Dragon") previously and didn't want to tempt fate by having another movie with the word "dragon" in it. |
12 | Referred to by critics Harry Medved and Michael Medved as "Dino Di Horrendous" in their 1980 book "The Golden Turkey Awards", after having produced a succession of costly failures during the previous decade (e.g., the remake King Kong (1976)). |
13 | Born at 5:0am-CEST. |
