Around 1960s-1970s. In Italian. Perfect conditions.
Andreina Pagnani (Rome, 1906 -1981)is a fascinating actress with an elegant acting intensity. She is famous for interpreting roles in the plays of authors like Shakespeare, Pirandello, Cocteau, O'Neill, and Shaw. The public remembers her especially for the role of the tender and caring Mrs. Maigret, at her old partner Gino Cervi's side in the tv show The Investigations of Commissioner Maigret (1964-1972), and for having been the partner of Alberto Sordi for nine years.
She has also dedicated herself, since the beginning of her carrer, to cinematographic activity in Italy in the second half of the 1960s. Thanks to her intense voice and blended accents, she was, together with Lydia Simoneschi, Tina Lattanzi, Rosetta Calavetta, Dhia Cristiani, and Giovanna Scotto, one of the most sought-after dubbers of her generation, lending her voice to big divas like Bette Davis, Marlene Dietrich, Katharine Hepburn, Gloria Swanson, Barbara Stanwyck, and Greta Garbo.
