Monica Vitti
Strangely aloof yet exuding sexuality, Monica Vitti trained at Rome's National Academy of Dramatic Arts. She made her first film in 1954: Ridere Ridere Ridere. Other films followed, such as L'Avventura (1960), La Notte (aka: The Night, 1961), and Red Desert (1964). In 1966, Vitti had an opportunity to break into Hollywood movies with Modesty Blaise, which was based the popular comic book created by Peter O'Donnell. Literally a female equivalent to James Bond, Modesty Blaise first appeared in the Evening Standard in 1963. Even though the film was not a hit, there are rumours that a new Modesty Blaise film is in the works, with Quentin Tarantino - of all people - scripting a draft. If you remember, Vincent Vega (John Travolta) is reading a Modesty Blaise book while sitting on the can during Pulp Fiction. Vitti worked mostly in Europe during the 1970s and early 1980s, with her strongest performance coming in 1974 with Le Fantome de la Liberte. In 1989, she scripted, directed, and starred in Scandalo Segreto (aka: Secret Scandal). Octavio Ramos Jr
