A few hours after sharing the photos that mark his rapprochement with Fabrizio Corona on social media, Asia Argento decides to open the drawer of memories and to tell the Corriere della Sera some things we will read in Anatomy of a wild heart, her first book published by Piemme and out on January 26, a memoir in which Asia retraces her life and reveals details that no one could ever imagine, like the violence her mother suffered when she was a little girl. “I left home the day after my 14th birthday, he hadn’t even bought a cake and I realized he didn’t care about me. I told my father about the violence I was suffering at home and with him we invented the ruse I was staying with my grandmother, even though I actually lived in her house alone, because he was busy on the set and Fiore was studying in the United States. So one day my mother called me to the court, my father’s secretary took me there, and renounced her parental authority. He took it back when I got pregnant with Anna Lou. ‘

The reason for the violence Asia once asked her directly: «She replied that I was the strongest. He had to let off steam. I had to become the strongest ». Despite this, from Daria Nicolodi she feels she has inherited «a sort of freedom of thought, of love for literature, for beauty, for nature. And then the seductive side she had: for me it has faded a little. ” In regards to violence and abuse, in addition to Harvey Weinstein, Asia Argento also mentions the name of director Rob Cohen: «This is the first time I’ve talked about Cohen. It happened in 2002 while we were shooting xXx. He abused me by making me drink the Ghb, he had a bottle. At the time I honestly didn’t know what it was. I woke up naked in her bed in the morning. ‘ “The purest thing about this MeToo is that one woman recognizes herself in the other. If one keeps a bottle of Ghb, surely he will have given it to others too “he continues shortly after, returning once again to Weinstein:” I had removed the rape. When he came back and apologized saying he was my friend, offering to help me find a nanny for Anna Lou in America, in 2002, I had not yet started the analytical journey to understand what he had done to me twice. I didn’t have anyone in the United States, I was alone. I felt strong that I had already shot Scarlet Diva he must have recognized himself in. I did not know that he had done the same to many others ».

On the love chapter, anyone who thinks they can find poisoned darts on Morgan in the book, however, will be forced to change their mind: “I was happy, I loved him and I was loved, I do not bear grudges: in the end today the good times are much more long those of greatest tension ». On the question of the house that was taken from him, however, he adds: «They did not take away his house ‘for me’. I didn’t get a penny, they just reimbursed the lawyer with five thousand euros. They took the house away from him because he didn’t pay taxes, he had debts and the money went to these people. I felt sorry for him. ‘ Anthony Boudain, Asia defines it, however, “the love of maturity”. «He entered my life on tiptoe, he immediately made friends with my children. We all spent a lot of time together. He prepared incredible things for us, when he was there, my mother and father, my sister and Angelica also came home. Everyone in my family loved him. He was a very generous man ». A particular connection remains with him even today that no longer exists: «I always talk to him. For a while I did it with regret: “I’m so alone now, but why did you have to go?”. Lately I have been cooking a lot with my son and I tell Anthony the good things. Mourning is something that you never know how long it lasts or what form it takes, it all lies in reaching acceptance ». Admitting to suffer from anxiety, depression and insomnia, Asia’s last thought goes to her children, especially to Anna Lou who began her acting career by appearing in the final season of Baby: «She wants to study, she has always been very good. He does Fine Arts ».
