Italian Classic Bombshell: 40 Stunning Photos of Laura Antonelli in the 1960s and '70s

Born 1941 in Pola, Kingdom of Italy (now known as Pula, Croatia), Italian actress Laura Antonelli made her first feature-film appearance in Le sedicenni, although her performance went uncredited. Her American debut came in 1966 in Dr. Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs. Other roles followed; her breakthrough came in 1973's Malizia. She appeared in a number of sex farces such as Till Marriage Do Us Part/Mio Dio come sono caduta in basso!.


Antonelli worked in more serious films, as well, including Luchino Visconti's last film, The Innocent (1976). In Wifemistress, a romance film of 1977, she played a repressed wife experiencing a sexual awakening. Later, she appeared in Passione d'Amore (1981). Antonelli's most recent role was in the sequel Malizia 2000 (1991).

Antonelli won the Italian National Syndicate of Film Journalists Award, Nastro d'Argento, in 1974 for Malizia.

In April 1991, cocaine was found during a police raid on Antonelli's home. She was subsequently convicted of possession and dealing and sentenced to house arrest. She spent 10 years appealing the conviction, which was eventually overturned.

Antonelli died in 2015, aged 73, from a heart attack.
