She’s appeared in dozens of films, but for me, she will always be Grazie, the holistic masseuse in Pane e Tulipani.
“Oh mio Dio, si è tutta bagnata mi dispiace. Cosa posso fare? Ah, le va una vodka?” (Oh my God, you’re soaked, I’m sorry! What can I do? Ah, do you want a vodka?), and with these words, Grazie and Rosalba became best friends forever, the girlfriends that I’d love to be third wheel to.
Marina Massironi was born in Legnano and was once married to the Giacomo of the famous Aldo, Giovanni and Giacomo; together they formed the comic duo “Hansel & Strudel”.
She won a best supporting actress David di Donatello and a Nastro D’Argento for Pane e Tulipani (Bread and Tulips) and if you have never seen it, first of all, WHAT???
