Died on this day: talented, sensitive and exquisite Italian actress Lucia Bosé (28 January 1931 - 23 March 2020). After winning the Miss Italia beauty pageant in 1947 (she beat a young unknown Gina Lollobrigida!), Bosé became a major star of mid-twentieth century Italian neo-realist cinema, working with the likes of Federico Fellini, Luis Buñuel and Jean Cocteau, and was half of a glamorous celebrity couple during her stormy marriage to Spanish matador Luis Miguel Dominguin between 1955 - 1967. Truthfully, I only know Bosé from the two films she made with her then-lover, visionary director Michelangelo Antonioni: Story of a Love Affair (1950) aka Cronaca di un amore and The Lady without Camellias aka La signora senza camelie (1953), (pictured) but she makes a vividly haunting and melancholy impression in both (her sultry dark looks anticipate Isabella Rossellini or Natassja Kinski).
