Luciana Paluzzi

Luciana Paluzzi is one of those names I associate instantly with a single unforgettable role. As the SPECTRE assassin Fiona Volpe in Thunderball, she gave the fourth James Bond film one of its most memorable adversaries. But what I appreciate is that she wasn't a one-film figure. Born in Rome in 1937, she worked across both Italian cinema and Hollywood through the 1960s and 70s, in films like Chuka, The Green Slime and The Klansman. That range tells me she was a working actress who could move between industries. To me, a career that straddles two film cultures is genuinely impressive.
