Where you’ve seen her:
Fulfilling the fantasies of frustrated postal workers worldwide in Il Postino and as another addition to the Bond-girl pantheon in The World is Not Enough. Other roles include a prostitute opposite David Schwimmer in Picking Up the Pieces and as Mary Magdalene opposite Jesus Christ in Maria Maddalena.
On having no illusions:
“I’ve met many prostitutes, and I think it’s wrong to judge them. I’ll tell you what I think is worse: It’s all the people in the movie business who tell you they are so pure, yet they are fucking this guy and that guy. At least the prostitute is honest about what she is.”
