Sophia Loren, born Sofia Villani Scicolone on September 20, 1934, in Rome, Italy, is one of the most enduring and beloved stars in the history of international cinema. With a career spanning more than seven decades, Loren is celebrated not only for her remarkable beauty but also for her formidable acting talent and indomitable spirit. As the film industry evolved in the 1970s and 1980s, Sophia Loren adapted gracefully. Though she reduced her output during these decades to focus more on her family, she continued to appear in select film and television projects that reflected her maturity and depth as an actress.
