...would have loved to work with... 1. Paul Newman 2. Phillipe Noiret 3. Giuletta Masina 4. Henry Fonda 5. Anne Bancroft ...and about eight hundred others with whom I will never have the chance...
...their star spouses with a Hollywood name. Thus Mangano played Penelope (and Circe) to Kirk Douglas' Ulysses; Loren was the honey to Anthony Quinn's Attila. Quinn, in Federico Fellini's La Strada, was the circus brute to the sad clown played by Fellini's wife, Giuletta Masina. Europa 51, directed by Roberto Rossellini, starred his then-wife Ingrid Bergman.

Dyes are applied, the waxed areas resist the new color and retain their original hue. The process is repeated dozens of times, creating...
...boasted an American male star surrounded by a busty bambina and a cast of local scenery-chewers. Anthony Quinn must have had dual citizenship back then: he played in "Attila" with Sophia Loren, "Ulysses" with Kirk Douglas and Silvana Mangano, and Fellini's Oscar-winning "La Strada" with Giulietta Masina. I didn't see the "Hercules" movies and other sword-and-sand epics, but they were probably the biggest-grossing Italian pictures of the decade...
