Italian actress Sandra Milo, who starred in Federico Fellini's films, has died

The Italian actress Sandra Milo died today in Rome, at the age of ninety. In her film career, over the last sixty years she had collaborated with leading directors, such as Roberto Rossellini, Federico FelliniLuigi Giamba and Dino Rizzi.

Her best-known performance was, without a doubt, in Fellini's Oscar-winning 8½. According to what she had stated herself, for a number of years she maintained a relationship with the famous Italian director of “Sweet Life”. In the eighties he presented a series of shows on the Italian public television Rai and participated in initiatives and conferences of the socialist party of Bettino Craxi.

At the age of eighty-seven, she had received the Italian film award David, for the overall course in the field of art. As the press writes and the Athens Agency reports, “she was, without a doubt, one of the most popular Italian actresses”.

“I loved Marcello Mastroianni very much, but without the attraction that so many women felt for such a handsome and charming man. Marcello was lighter, Federico had more depth, but, in a way, it's as if one complemented the other, as if one had the traits, the characteristics, that the other lacked,” Sandra Milo said.
