Silvana Mangano
Italian actress (1930–1989)
Silvana Mangano (Italian pronunciation:[silˈvaːnaˈmaŋɡano]; 21 April 1930[1] – 16 December 1989[2]) was an Italian film actress. She was one of a generation of thespians who arose from the neorealist movement, and went on to become a major female star, regarded as a sex symbol for the 1950s and '60s.[3] She won the David di Donatello for Best Actress three times – for The Verona Trial (1963), The Witches (1967), and The Scientific Cardplayer (1972) – and the Nastro d'Argento for Best Actress twice.
Raised in poverty during World War II, Mangano trained as a dancer and worked as a model before winning a Miss Rome beauty pageant in 1946. This led to work in films; she achieved success in Bitter Rice (1949) and went on to forge a successful career in films, working with many notable directors like Pier Paolo Pasolini, Luchino Visconti, Alberto Lattuada, and Vittorio De Sica. Her career continued well into her 50s, with supporting roles in David Lynch's Dune (1984) and Nikita MikhalkovDark Eyes (1987).
Mangano was the wife of international film producer Dino De Laurentiis and had four children with him, including Veronica De Laurentiis and Raffaella De Laurentiis.
Early life

Silvana Mangano; Italian Movie Actress
Silvana Mangano, an Italian screen beauty and former wife of producer Dino De Laurentiis, died Saturday in a Madrid hospital of cancer. She was 59.
Mangano had been in a coma for several days after surgery, a hospital spokesman said. Three daughters from her marriage to De Laurentiis--Francesca, Veronica and Raffaela--were at the hospital when she died.
Mangano was perhaps best known for her role as a sensual country girl in director Giuseppe De Santis’ 1949 film “Bitter Rice,” a film about peasant girls working in the rice fields of northern Italy.
She emerged as a dark, sensuous star in the post-war era that also saw the rise of such world-famed Italian beauties as Sophia Loren and Gina Lollobrigida. Throughout her film career, Mangano was often overshadowed by the two better-known actresses.
Her career was also eclipsed in later years by the fame of De Laurentiis, her husband for 34 years. She separated from De Laurentiis in 1983 and filed for divorce last year.
Mangano was born April 21, 1930, in Rome, the daughter of a Sicilian railroad worker and an English mother.
She began her film career in 1947 at the age of 16 after being selected Miss Rome in a beauty contest.
In 1949, she became an international star with her role in
