Sophia Loren is returning to cinema after an 11-year absence. Loren, 86, stars in upcoming Netflix drama The Life Ahead, which is directed by her son, Edoardo Ponti.

 

In the film, Loren plays Madame Rosa, a Jewish Holocaust survivor who helps raise the children of deceased sex workers with whom she once walked the streets. She then strikes up an enduring friendship with Momo, a 12-year-old Senegalese orphan who tries to steal her candlesticks.

For those of us who wanted to enjoy something different on the screen back in the days, this Bella Donna was something else, along with Gina Lollobrigida and Leslie Caron who starred in Fanny. They don't make em like they used to.

well she didn't before, so why should she now? An average actor at best.  She surely wasn't in movies due to her acting ability. 

am with you on that, barely average actress and mostly selected not on her acting skills, very similar to what happen with Elizabeth Taylor  555

Good ol Burt Lancaster.

 

If anyone ever got ripped from receiving an Oscar it was Mickey Rooney, albeit it he received an honorary one for his services to the industry which in my opinion should have been given to him after receiving no less than half a dozen Oscars, he was a brilliant actor, but short changed form the Oscars.
