SOPHIA LOREN
Small 3½x5½ picture postcard of a young Loren in a scene from
Woman of the River
Picture Postcard signed: "Sophia Loren". B/w, 3½x5½. Still
from film Woman of the River (1955). Sophia Loren (born in 1934),
statuesque and sensuous, was an established star in Italy by 1954, competing
with Gina Lollobrigida for audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. After
arriving in Hollywood in 1958, Loren was cast in sexually charged roles in such
films as Desire Under the Elms, The Black Orchid and Heller in
Pink Tights. In 1961, she returned to Italy to star in a definitely
unglamorous role in a most memorable film, Two Women, for which she
received an Academy Award and the Cannes Festival Award. She also received a
nomination for the 1965 Best Actress Oscar for portraying Filumena Marturano in
Marriage Italian-Style. In 1991, Sophia Loren was awarded a Special
Academy Award "for a career rich with memorable performances that has added
permanent luster to our art form". Her other films include The Black
Orchid, El Cid, Boy on a Dolphin, It Started in Naples
and Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. In 1995, 61-year-old Italian beauty
Sophia Loren starred in Grumpier Old Men with Jack Lemmon and Walter
Matthau, proving that her beauty and sex appeal are timeless. Slightly chipped
at lower right. Otherwise, fine condition.
