Momo died from a motorcycle accident. The bike that had the fatal accident, a Honda CB750 [3], he was given by his friend Eleonora Giorgi, left for a trip; the actress was later investigated for reckless expectations because Alexander was not yet 18 years of age and was not entitled to drive superbike, according to the regulations at the time.

Biography

Alessandro Momo débute très jeune (il était acteur dans une série de romans-photos pour adolescents - Ed. Paoline -, donnant la réplique à Giusva Fioravanti). Il devient célèbre grâce à ses rôles avec Laura Antonelli dans les films de Salvatore Samperi Malicia et Péché véniel, et il décède brutalement dans un accident de moto quelques semaines après le tournage de Parfum de femme, de Dino Risi, où il partage l'affiche avec Vittorio Gassman et Agostina Belli.

La moto conduite lors de son accident, une Honda CB 750 Four, lui fut prêtée par son amie Eleonora Giorgi, partie en voyage; l'actrice a été par la suite questionnée sur son imprudence, puisque Alessandro n'avait pas encore 21 ans et n'était pas autorisé à conduire une moto de forte cylindrée, selon le code de l'époque. Quelque temps après, le chanteur Patrizio Sandrelli lui consacra une chanson à sa mémoire, qui eut un petit succès : Fratello in amore.

Alessandro Momo est enterré au cimetière Verano , à Rome, avec son père Gabriele Momo (1914-2000).
