Noted Italian-American filmmaker, Narizzano, was educated at Bishop's University in Quebec, Canada, where he honed his craft before venturing into the world of theatre with the esteemed Mountain Playhouse in Montreal. Subsequently, he joined the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, serving as an assistant to renowned directors such as Norman Jewison, Arthur Hiller, Sidney J. Furie, and Ted Kotcheff, gaining valuable experience in the process.
As the 1950s progressed, Narizzano's career took him to British television, where he worked on a diverse range of productions, including thrillers, horror stories, and dramatic works penned by celebrated authors like J.B. Priestley, John Mortimer, and William Inge.
Narizzano's cinematic style was heavily influenced by the French New Wave movement, and he achieved his greatest success as the director of the romantic comedy Georgy Girl (1966),a daring and risqué film set against the swinging 1960s London backdrop, starring Lynn Redgrave and James Mason.
In his later years, Narizzano retreated from the public eye, devoting himself to spiritual pursuits and immersing himself in religious studies, marking the end of an illustrious career in the film industry.
