Personal Quote:

[on her infamous love scene in She and He (1969)] Of course, if it had not been for the director, I wouldn't have done this film. See more »

Trivia:

Since the early 1960s has invested most of her considerable salary from film work in a luxurious villa--in the well-to-do district of Marino, Rome--complete with 16th-century furniture and paintings. That lasted until her spending was overtaken by dwindling income and, in 1976, she had to face a tax evasion inquest, and was forced to sell her house.. See more »
