Giulietta Masina is read about 556 times a day, in 47 languages.
A typical day, 30 days to 16 September 2026
The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
Something wrong?She made heartbreak look like grace. Giulietta Masina turned two performances - a traveling fool in La Strada and a stubborn prostitute in Nights of Cabiria - into something Chaplin called the most moving work he'd ever seen.

About this person
Giulia Anna Masina was born in Italy on 22 February 1921 and built a career that cinema historians would later call masterful. In 1954 she played Gelsomina in La Strada, a role that became her signature; three years later she was Cabiria in Nights of Cabiria, winning Best Actress at Cannes in 1957. Both films took the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, and both were described as inspired by her humanity. Critics compared her work to Chaplin's, and Chaplin himself said she was the actress who moved him most. She died on 23 March 1994.
