Marisa Pavan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marisa Pavan (born Marisa Pierangeli on June 19, 1932) is an Italian-born actress who first became famous as the twin sister to movie star Pier Angeli (Anna Maria Pierangeli) before achieving movie stardom on her own. Her breakthrough came in the film The Rose Tattoo as Anna Magnani's daughter; her role was first assigned to her twin, who at the time was unable to play the part. When Magnani won the Best Actress Oscar for her role in the movie version of The Rose Tattoo, Pavan accepted on her behalf as Magnani was not present at the awards ceremony.
Afterwards, Marisa Pavan co-starred in films such as The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit, Diane, John Paul Jones and The Midnight Story.
She married, divorced, and later remarried the French actor Jean-Pierre Aumont between 1956 until his death in 2001; they had two sons.
