Live and act
Occhini comes from a literary family : Her father was the writer Barna Occhini , her maternal uncle the writer Giovanni Papini .
Occhini was best known for historical films , for example as Kriemhild and Sebastian Fischer in the Nibelungen adaptation Siegfried - Die Sage der Nibelungen (1957), as Ophir alongside Pierre Brasseur , Daniel Gélin and Mario Girotti in Karthago in Flammen (1960) and in Curtis Bernhardt's sandal film The Hero of Attica (1961). At the same time, the trained theater actress was seen repeatedly on stage from the beginning of her career in the late 1950s.
In the 1960s she was almost exclusively seen in adventure films (including Sergio Corbucci's The Man with the Golden Blade ), but established herself as a serious character actress in 1966 as a partner of Jacques Perrin in Vittorio De Seta's Un uomo a metà (1966). In the 1970s she was given more demanding supporting roles , especially in France : as Clotilde in Serge Korber's candlelight, she is the new flame of her father ( Jean Rochefort ) rejected by the step-daughter . In José Giovanni's final destination, Schafott , she played Sophie, the faithful wife of an ex-convict ( Alain Delon ). During the 1980s she made herself scarce on screen. In Germany in 1991 she played in Klaus Emmerich's Pizza Colonia as Severina Serboli at the side of Mario Adorf and Willy Millowitsch . The high point of her career so far was the lead role of Gemma in the film drama Mar nero - Black Sea by Federico Bondi in 2008 , for which she received the award for best actress at the Locarno Film Festival . In the film, which was shown at several film festivals, she played a scratchy Italian pensioner who befriends her Romanian housemaid. In Men al dente (Mine vaganti) by Ferzan Özpetek , she embodied the Nonna, the way of life of the grandmother in a chaotic Italian family clan. The film was shown at numerous festivals in 2010, including a. at the Berlinale and the Tribeca Film Festival .
In addition to being seen in movies, Occhini was also often seen in TV series, for example in 2005 as Adreina in Provaci ancora prof! .
