Lilia Dale
Lilia Dale (actually Koralin Hand ; born July 18, 1919 in Pula , Yugoslavia ) is a former Italian actress .
Life
By the time Dale moved to Rome when she was under eighteen , she already had a wide range of experience. The small, slim young woman had studied dance, singing and acting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna , spoke fluent Italian, German, English and French and gave piano concerts. She was soon chosen by Mario Camerini from numerous applicants for the role of the pushy and capricious, spoiled and confused young lady in the false world of the rich snobs of his film Il signor Max , in which she finally appeared under the name Adonella . Her interpretation of the unpleasant and unsympathetic role suggested an excellent career, but the subsequent offers only demanded stereotypical repetitions of this debut from Dale, who tried to escape it by changing names in the cast lists (she also played as Lilly Hand and Lilia Dale Hand ). In 1940 she gave up acting after her marriage.
