Sophia Loren


 Sophia Loren was born on September 20, 1934 in Rome, Italy. Her given name was Sofia Scicolone. Her father was an interesting man because he refused to marry her mother even though she gave birth to two of his children. This meant that she grew up in a home with a single mother, and her father did not help her mother in any way. She got her start from entering a beauty contest when she was only 14 years old. She became one of the finalists in this competition, and this was where she was discovered. She was discovered by Carlo Ponti, who was a movie producer. They ended up getting married even though he was 22 years older than she was.


In the beginning, Sophia Loren started her career by playing extras in movies. Finally, after being in ten movies where she was an extra, she began playing some of the supporting roles. By the time she was 18 years old, she was playing the lead roles in many of the Italian films that were being produced. She started acting in the United States in 1957. She did not receive an award for her acting until she went back to make movies in Italy. There, she played the lead role in the movie that was entitled Two Women. Originally, she was cast to play the daughter in this film, but she instead pushed to play the role of the mother. She ended up winning an Academy Award for her role in this film.

Sophia Loren still receives awards for the movies that she has made. She typically travels between Los Angeles and Switzerland in order to spend time with her sons and their children. She was married only to Carlo Ponti during her lifetime though she was said to have had a fling with the famous actor Cary Grant.

Audrey Hepburn was born in Brussels, Belgium on May 4, 1929. She was born to a wealthy banker and a Dutch baroness. However, her parents did not stay together. Once her father and mother were divorced, Audrey Hepburn went to live with her mother in London. She spent her childhood attending private schools in London as well as in the Netherlands. While she was on vacation with her mother in Holland, she ended up in the midst of a Nazi occupation of the town. During this period of time, Audrey Hepburn had problems with malnutrition and depression.

After the town in Holland was freed from the Nazi's, Audrey Hepburn moved to London to attend a ballet school. While she was going through her schooling, she worked as a model. She was happy being a model, but soon she was found by movie producers. She started off much like the other actors and actresses of her time playing small roles. These roles eventually got bigger, and before she knew it, Audrey Hepburn was playing lead roles in movies. She made her final film in 1989, which was entitled Always. Throughout her time as an actress, she had made many movies that were box office hits.

Elizabeth Taylor was born on February 27, 1932. She was born in London, England. Her parents were from the United States, and they had gone to London in order for her father to be able to sell his art. Her mother worked as an actress. When Elizabeth Taylor was very young, her family moved to Los Angeles, California. Her parents noticed at a young age that she was very beautiful. This was what started Elizabeth Taylor's career.

When she was only ten years old, she was already cast in the movie entitled There's One Born Every Minute. Just after this film, Universal Studios did not keep their contract with Elizabeth Taylor, but she did not have time to worry about this. Just after she was dropped by Universal Studios, she was picked up by MGM. Over the next few years, Elizabeth Taylor starred in a number of movies. She even costarred with James Dean, though he was not alive to see the movie released.
