Valeria Fabrizi (born October 20, 1936 in Verona ) is an Italian actress and singer .

Life

Fabrizi took part in beauty pageants (including the one for Miss Universum 1957, in which she was fourth) and made her debut as an actress in the role of soubrette in the theater season 1954/55; in the Scarnicci - Tarabusi piece Passo doppio she appeared alongside Ugo Tognazzi , actress and Gino Bramieri . Two Garinei and Giovannini comedies, Carlo non farlo and L'adorable Giulio with Carlo Dapporto, followed for the beautiful, brown-haired, curvy and casually acting actress . She also met her future husband, Tata Giacobetti from the “Quartetto Certo”, with whom she was married from 1964 until his death in 1988. After the stage play Una storia in blue-jeans (with Erminio Macario and Carlo Campanini ) Fabrizi accepted his first television offers : Il mattatore (1959, with Vittorio Gassman ) and musical programs such as Il teatrino di Walter Chiari , successful comedies such as Mezzanotte con l'eroe directed by Leonardo Cortese and Il collegio degli scandali directed by Flaminio Bollini and Carla Ragionieri . Crime films ( Un certo Harry Brent after Francis Durbridge , 1970) and guest appearances in television series and series for directors such as Anton Giulio Majano and alongside Alberto Lupo can also be found in the artist's television appearances.

In 1962 she played with the ensemble around Marina Bonfigli , Vittorio Sanipoli and Aldo Giuffrè in Boeing-Boeing by Marc Camoletti and, under the direction of Silverio Blasi, played the seductive stewardesses of various airlines with Hélène Chanel and Susanne Loret ; her comedic talent was repeatedly praised.

Her pronounced film career, however, barely offered Fabrizi the opportunity to fully demonstrate her abilities and pressed her again and again into the same role schemes, in which she was mostly just a decorative accessory; Between 1955 and 1967 a large number of artistically hardly remarkable and little remembered utility films were made, which kept their popularity constant but never at the highest level. Increased activities in the mid-1970s and the occasional guest appearances on the screen since 1981 did nothing to change that. Again and again she could be heard on the film music accompanying the works with song recordings.

Her television career, on the other hand, was a little more interesting; she was seen in 1981 in Nel silenzio della notte and later in Storia di Anna ; This was followed by other tasks in series and mini-series, including in 2011 in the television film Che Dio ci auiti by Elena Sofia Ricci and the following year for Pupi Avati .

Fabrizi's work also includes photo novels , radio pieces and dubbing assignments. In 1970 the single Un amico was released .
