EK favored Claude Joséphine Rose Cardinale/OUTW

EK told me that he favored actresses in 1994. I did not look at it until now. 

Why? 

Cardinale said of her acting, "I never felt scandal and confession were necessary to be an actress. I've never revealed myself or even my body in films. Mystery is very important."^[156] In a 2014 interview, she revealed her secret of success: "If you want to practise this craft, you have to have inner strength. Otherwise, you'll lose your idea of who you are. Every film I make entails becoming a different woman. And in front of a camera, no less! But when I'm finished, I'm me again."^[67]"

Claude Joséphine Rose Cardinale (French: [klod ?ozefin ?oz ka?dinal]; born 15 April 1938), known as Claudia Cardinale (Italian: [?klaudja kardi?na?le]), is a Tunisian-born 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 Franco Cristaldi, who acted as her mentor for a number of years and later married her. "
