Beauty icon Swedish actress Camilla Sparv
It’s no exaggeration to say that Camilla Sparv is one of the most charming women ever living on planet Earth. Absolutely untypical for Hollywood movies (and movies in general), Camilla is the embodiment of exceptional femininity, a deep spiritual world and intellect peeping through the close material frames of her cinematic heroines.
The charm and femininity of Camilla are so invincible that it seems like she is a creature from another Galaxy, probably the Andromeda Nebula, accidentally visited our Milky Way. And to our great happiness, we can admire her beauty transferred to film. Undoubtedly, Camilla Sparv – absolutely incredible phenomenon in the world of cinema. The same as Audrey Hepburn. However, unlike Audrey Hepburn, Camilla was much less fortunate in the movies. And this is the great fault of myopic producers and directors, who indifferently passed by magic …

Lucyna entered the university, the Faculty of Law. Why Law? Like many graduates, she herself did not know why. Somewhere you had to do something, but the real calling was determined much later. So, in 1950, Lucyna received a master’s degree in law and … realized that trying to prove herself in the law does not make sense. By this time she was already a student of the Higher School of Theater.
Three years later, a young actress began to work in Stettin. She successfully performed in plays “Their Four”, “To the South of the 38th Parallel”, “Big Man with Small Interests”. And soon there was a film debut. Jerzy Kawalerowicz was directing a big two-part film “Cellulose” on the novel of the Polish writer Igor Neverly.

Beautiful Swedish actress Ulla Jacobsson Rohsmann
In the first frame of the film by Arne Mattsson “She danced one summer” – a modest roadside flower. It is a plastic symbol of the whole film, distinguished by its simplicity that is not banal, but noble and informative. This, perhaps, is a symbol of all that Ulla Jacobsson brought to the Swedish cinema. She became world famous after this film, although there was not the magic look of Marlene Dietrich, or the refined grace of Audrey Hepburn. In general, no dazzling beauty, no bright sexuality – not a movie star.

Italian beauty icon Gina Lollobrigida
Born 4 July 1927, Gina Lollobrigida has celebrated her 90th birthday! At one time, for participation in the film, she received the highest fees in the film, and more than four hundred magazines a year reproduced her portrait on the covers. Among them, the American “Time”, which of the European celebrities gave this honor only to Pope Pius XII. She starred in more than 100 films, and tried herself as a screenwriter and director, journalist, photographer, sculptor and many other things.
Meanwhile, Lollobrigida entitled her biography: “My wonderful adventure.” It is really wonderful, her biography. And not only hers. Many movie stars of the world underwent such a sudden transformation of Cinderella into a princess. Not a talent, not a calling, but a chance, a happy coincidence of circumstances decided their fate.
Lollobrigida’s luck was accompanied by talent. A lucky fate fell to Lollobrigida. But it is unlikely that the actress has forgotten the years of misery and grief that preceded it.
During the war, Gina learned how to weave straw sandals and remade soldier’s shirts in blouses. In 1945, the family moved to Rome, on one of the crooked streets of the outskirts, crossed with clotheslines, which we are so familiar with the films of Rossellini and DeSantis.
