Giorgia Moll
- Actress
Giorgia Moll is one of the many beauties with whom the Italian cinema
teemed in the 1950s and 1960s. Her harmonious face, her perfect brown
hair and her dream measurements did not escape the talent scouts of the
time and she was only seventeen when she was hired for her first film
Non scherzare con le donne (1955).
Her career is undistinguished on the whole but two of her roles stand
out: Phuong, Audie Murphy's
Vietnamese love interest in
Joseph L. Mankiewicz's
Un Américain bien tranquille (1958),
filmed in Rome in 1957; and Francesca Vanini, the dogsbody secretary of
authoritarian film producer Jack Palance in
Jean-Luc Godard's
Le mépris (1963). During this period,
Giorgia Moll was also a popular singer. After 1970, her appearances
became sporadic and she retired for good in 1985. She is now a
photographer.
