Donatella Damiani
- Actress
Donatella Damiani, the artistic name of Donatella Casula, is an Italian actress and model. She was born in January 6, 1955, in Naples, Italy. Donatella is the daughter of a ministerial employee and lives in Rome since she was one year old. The former political science student, began her career in Liebes Lager (1976), the mysterious Nazisploitation film. The image of Donatella that remained engraved in the collective mind is that of the soubrette of The City of Women (1980), of Federico Fellini. In this film Damiani embodies a sweet woman, protection, seductive, flirtatious, exuberant and more, as she herself admits, "full of" contradictions in the interpretation surmounted by a Neapolitan twisting inflection. The films that she played later (Miele di donna (1981), by Gianfranco Angelucci and Il peccato di Lola (1985), by Bruno Gaburro) insisted on her roundness, and particularly on the generous breasts that Fellini liked to call "a pagliaro". In 1986, she appeared in a series of photographic services in glamorous magazines. In 1988, she participated in the TV show Fantastico 9 with Enrico Montesano. She also posed completely naked for the erotic Playboy and Playmen magazines and for the pornographic Le Ore.
