Errinerungen

Alles begann mit einem Schönheitswettbewerb, den sie gewann, obwohl sie gar nicht daran teilnahm. Von da an war die Karriere der jungen Claudia Cardinale nicht mehr aufzuhalten. Ihr Weg führte sie aus einer behüteten Kindheit in Tunesien direkt nach Rom, Cannes, Hollywood und Paris – in ein Universum, das von Genies bevölkert war: Luchino Visconti, Federico Fellini, Sergio Leone. Ihre geliebten italienischen Regisseure prägten sie ebenso wie ihre Filmpartner Alain Delon, Burt Lancaster, Marcello Mastroianni, Jean-Paul Belmondo und ihre Kollegin Rita Hayworth. Aber die Cardinale ist nie eine Diva gewesen, der alles in den Schoß fiel. Sie ist eine Frau, die auch Zweifel und Ängste kennt und sich vieles erkämpfen musste. Schon deshalb werden ihre Erinnerungen Generationen von Frauen inspirieren und begeistern.

About the author

Claudia Cardinale

8 books4 followers
Claude Joséphine Rose "Claudia" Cardinale (Italian: [ˈklaudja kardiˈnaːle]; 15 April 1938 – 23 September 2025) was an Italian actress.

Born and raised in La Goulette, a neighbourhood of Tunis, Cardinale won the "Most Beautiful Italian Girl in Tunisia" competition in 1957, the prize being a trip to Italy, which quickly led to film contracts, due above all to the involvement of producer Franco Cristaldi, who acted as her mentor for a number of years and later married her. After making her debut in a minor role with Egyptian star Omar Sharif in Goha (1958), Cardinale became one of the best-known actresses in Italy, with roles in films such as Rocco and His Brothers (1960), Girl with a Suitcase (1961), Cartouche (1962), The Leopard (1963) and Federico Fellini's 8½ (1963).

From 1963, Cardinale appeared in The Pink Panther opposite David Niven. She went on to appear in the Hollywood films Blindfold (1965), Lost Command (1966), The Professionals (1966), Don't Make Waves (1967) with Tony Curtis, The Hell with Heroes (1968) and the Sergio Leone Western Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), a joint U.S.-Italian production, in which she was praised for her role as a former prostitute opposite Jason Robards, Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda.
