Franca Parisi
Franca Parisi (born September 28, 1933 in Palermo ) is an Italian actress who is mainly known in Germany for her roles in Scampolo and Sissi - Fateful Years of an Empress .
Life
Parisi studied at the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia and made his debut in Ferdinando Baldi's Il prezzo dell'onore in 1953 . Soon the pretty, elegant actress was used in genre films and dramas. From 1955 she played in a number of German-language films; In 1959 she married the Austrian actor Erwin Strahl - the marriage was later divorced. At the beginning of the 1960s she returned to her home country and was seen almost exclusively in unremarkable adventure films, in which she was often seen as a scornful, cold acting villain; sometimes she was listed under the pseudonym Margaret Taylor . From 1964 she was almost exclusively in television roles (including La freccia nera by Anton Giulio Majano , in which she embodied Jane) and on stage; there, too, she played the second or third leading female role. At the beginning of the 1970s, Parisi ended her career and retired into private life.
