桑德拉·米洛 (1933)
Sandra Milo

演员
During the 1950s and 1960s bosomy, scintillating, dark-haired Tunisian leading lady Sandra Milo played bored patricians, manipulative mistresses and other enticing ladies of questionable morals with typical sensuous flare in scores of Italian and French productions.

Born Elena Liliana Greco in Tunis on March 11, 1933, Sandra made her film debut at age 20 co-starring tauntingly alongside Alberto Sordi in Lo scapolo (1955) and renamed herself. For the next full decade, she unleashed her fiery figure on a number of tempted male players in scores of saucy comedies, feisty costumers and steamy melodramas. Such films included Mio figlio Nerone (1956), Les aventures d'Arsène Lupin (1957), Le miroir a deux faces (1958) [The Mirror Has Two Faces], Totò nella luna (1958) [Toto in the Moon], Il generale Della Rovere (1959) [General della Rovere], and the period comedy romp La jument verte (1959) starring the great French actor Bourvil, which served as the inspiration to the bawdy classic "Tom Jones."

Ms. Milo appeared to fine advantage in two of Fellini's greatest masterpieces - 8½ (1963) and Giulietta degli spiriti (1965). She personified the aloof Italian temptress opposite Europe's most virile, passionate leading men -- Vittorio Gassman, Marcello Mastroianni, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Jean Sorel, etc.

Leaving films in 1968, Sandra was little seen on camera and did not return to the big screen until over a decade later, now sporadically appearing as severe-looking blondes. Primarily filming in Italy well into her octogenarian years, such movies have included the comedy Riavanti... Marsch! (1979), the dramedy Grog (1982), the musical fantasy Cenerentola '80 (1984), the comedy Camerieri (1995), the romantic dramedy Il cuore altrove (2003), the comedies Sleepless (2009), Happy Family (2010), Una notte agli studios (2013), A casa tutti bene (2018) and Free - Liberi (2020).
