Barbara Bouchet

Barbara Bouchet's biography reads like a century compressed into one life. Born in German-occupied Czechoslovakia, carried to America after the war, then reinventing herself as a fixture of 1960s and 70s Italian genre cinema, she kept landing on her feet wherever history threw her. Labeled a sex symbol of that era, she was also a dancer, a model, and a businesswoman, and that restless range tells me more than any single role could. What draws me in is the resilience underneath the glamour: someone who built a place for herself in country after country. I find that rootless, durable self-invention genuinely admirable.
