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.
She returned to the city of love and Dolce Vita seeking to shine in beauty contests. And guess what: she succeeded! Along the way, she met Carlo Ponti, her great love and mentor, who took her to the pinnacle of Italian cinema.
Who dares to say that love cannot change the course of your life?
The 1960s were her golden years. In 1961, Sophia won her first Oscar for "Two Women," becoming the first non-English-speaking actress to receive this recognition. Take that, Hollywood! 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.
