From Naples to the World
Sophia, whose full name is Sophia Costanza Brigida Villani Scicolone, was born in a Rome that, due to difficult circumstances, took her to the outskirts of Naples. But every cloud has a silver lining.

From there, her career took off. She worked with legends like Cary Grant and Frank Sinatra, and her chemistry with Marcello Mastroianni in movies like "Marriage Italian Style" made us all sigh.
