Virna Lisi

.

The goddess that is Virna Lisi.

I didn't include Virna in the montage of clips of "Who's the Queen of Peplum cinema" because she did few S&S films, the two that comes to mind is Duel of the Titans and this swashbuckling comedy co-starring Vittorio Gassman called A Virgin for the Prince. But if she had made more of them, she would have been a top contender.

You can view the entire wonderful film at my With FIRE & SWORD channel with this link:

Madonna was obviously influenced by Lisi

[natureboyinyourface]

she was a beauty.

Virna Lisi was one of the most beautiful women in the history of cinema. When I was a kid I so wanted to look like her. Madonna? Bah!  That tacky trollop is not fit to tie Lisi's shoe strings. And Virna had the most perfect and sexy lips ever! There are no more women like that today.

Is she a dancer in this movie.

@781nellie You are absolutely right!. Madonna was never as beautiful as Virna

@msmcis

The sad thing(for Madonna) is that Virna Lisi even now looks better than Madonna:-)))))

She reminds me a bit of Sharon Stone.

Modonna can workout 24 hours a day, wear her gallion of makeup,and she never will be like Lisi, I would love to have been the guy with the measuring tape, I will always remember her from How To Murder Your Wife, and Not With My Wife You Don't, Duel of Titians, Comparing Lisi to Modonna is like comaring the Sun (Lisi) to a near burned out pin light (Madonna). Lisi never was a slut, Modonna made a sick career out of it.

[msmcis]

Yes! Except that this movie was way before Madonna.
