Yesterday on TCM, they gave a all day marathon of movies featuring the old school Italian bombshell Sophia Loren, and I must say that all the female "sex symbols" of today had to study Loren, because it seems as though she invented sex appeal.
She has a very unique face, with extra high cheek bones and large lips, and in Millionairess and Too bad She's Bad she worked the camera better than Marilyn. No matter what, I will always be a fan of the way women dressed back in the day with their cinched waists and unapologetic curves...and DRESSES! Today it's out of the ordinary for a woman to wear a skirt of dress, back then it was second nature...why can't we go back to it being second nature???
Anyway, if you don't get a chance to look up Sophia and learn more about her career and life, here's a short video to hold you over until you do. Enjoy!
