Claudio Amendola protagonist of the last episode of Belve. The actor spoke with Francesca Fagnani about his addiction to cocaine. "I was addicted to it and came out of it because there was something important: children. When you realize that you found yourself in a situation where you were supposed to be lucid and you weren't. And then, fortunately, the fright or responsibility that only you can have at that moment, force you to return lucid. And so it was"

Regarding his separation from Francesca Neri, Amendola confided: "Today there is no pain. The pain was there before. If anything, there is the regret of not having been, of not having been, able to get to the end". And speaking of his children he was moved: "The greatest joy? When my daughter Alessia, born 5 and a half months premature, made it".

The actor also talked about his career, cited "Christmas Holidays" and "I Cesaroni" as works for which he will be remembered and how he leaned on the "mask of the coercion", as Fagnani pointed out, and then there was a jab at the president of the Senate, Ignazio La Russa, who in Belve had called him "the most st**** of all" and denounced after the boos at the Film Fest in the 2011.
