Lea Padovani by Truus, Bob & Jan too! Via Flickr: Italian postcard by Nannina, Milano. Lea Padovani (1923-1991) was an Italian stage and film actress. She appeared in 60 films between 1945 and 1990. She starred in the French crime film Le Dossier noir/Black Dossier (André Cayatte, 1955) which was entered into the 1955 Cannes Film Festival. Lea Padovani was born in Montalto di Castro, in 1923. Against her father's advice, Lea enrolled at L'Accademia d'Arte Drammatica, the National Academy of Dramatic Art in Rome, which she left in 1944. She made her debut as a soubrette in Garinei and Giovannini's revue 'Cantachiaro'. The following year, she was part of Erminio Macario's company in 'Febbre azzurra'. She demonstrated excellent acting skills and enjoyed great success. Her meeting with Macario led to work in the film industry. She made her film debut with the female leading role in the comedy L'innocente Casimiro/The Innocent Casimiro (Carlo Campogalliani, 1946) starring Erminio Macario. In 1946 she began her long and successful career as a theatre actress with Armand Salacrou's 'Un uomo come gli altri' and with Jean Cocteau's 'I parenti terribili' in Luchino Visconti's Milanese revival. In 1953, she was alongside Ruggero Ruggeri on a tour to London and Paris with 'Enrico IV' and 'Tutto per bene'. In 1954 she was awarded a special Nastro d'Argento (Silver Ribbon award) for her theatrical performances. From 1947 Lea Padovani appeared in international films, such as Una lettera al Alba/Letter at Dawn (Giorgio Bianchi, 1948) and the British social drama Give Us This Day (Edward Dmytryk, 1949) with Sam Wanamaker. Orson Welles originally cast Lea as Desdemona in his 1952 film production of Othello back in 1948. After Welles began the filming in Venice, producer Montatori Scalera informed Welles that he wanted to make Verdi's opera, not the Shakespearean play, so the money ran out and the film was shelved. By the time the film was made years later, Lea had been replaced by Suzanne Cloutier. She starred in the French crime film Le Dossier noir/Black Dossier (André Cayatte, 1955) which was entered into the 1955 Cannes Film Festival. A big hit was the comedy Pane, amore e...../Scandal in Sorrento (Dino Risi, 1955) in which she co-starred with Sophia Loren and Vittorio De Sica. In the 1950s, Padovani also took part in several TV dramas, including Piccole done (Anton Giulio Majano, 1955), Il romanzo di un giovane povero (Silverio Blasi, 1957) and Ottocento (Anton Giulio Majano, 1959-1960). During the 1960s, the stage and television became more important than her film career. In 1990, she made her last film, La putain du roi/The King's Whore (Axel Corti, 1990) with Timothy Dalton and Valeria Golino. Shortly before her death, the actress told writer Renzo Allegri about her encounters with Padre Pio in the late 1950s, asking for help for one of her lovers, who was terminally ill with cancer. She died in 1991 of a heart attack. In 2006, director Oliver Parker directed the film Fade to Black, based on the novel Fade to Black by Davide Ferrario, inspired by a fictional story involving the actress, played in the film by Paz Vega, and the director Orson Welles, played by Danny Huston. In 2012, a theatre named after Lea Padovani was inaugurated in Montalto di Castro by Mayor Sergio Caci and Culture Councillor Eleonora Sacconi. Sources: Wikipedia (Italian and English) and IMDb.

“ I giornalisti di passaggio a Palermo hanno più volte cercato di scoprire come viveva, qual era l'intensità della sua paura quotidiana, se la vicinanza del pericolo gli procurava angoscia. Falcone ha sempre risposto con serenità: «Il pensiero della morte mi accompagna ovunque. Ma, come dice Montaigne, diventa presto una seconda natura. Certo, si sta sul chi vive, si calcola, si osserva, ci si organizza, si evitano le abitudini ripetitive, si sta lontano dagli assembramenti e da qualsiasi situazione che non possa essere tenuta sotto controllo. Ma si acquista anche una buona dose di fatalismo; in fondo si muore per tanti motivi, un incidente stradale, un aereo che esplode in volo, una overdose, il cancro e anche per nessuna ragione particolare». L'ironia sulla morte fa parte del retaggio culturale siciliano. Leonardo Sciascia ne era maestro. Falcone da parte sua racconta con un certo divertito compiacimento le battute del tempo del maxiprocesso. «Mi viene a trovare a casa il collega Paolo Borsellino. "Giovanni," mi dice devi darmi immediatamente la combinazione della cassaforte del tuo ufficio. E perché? Sennò quando ti ammazzano come l'apriamo?». “

Hi how are you? So as a new fan I have seen everyone talking about Nadia -I believe that is her name- who is she? Because I tried searching for someone who say who she is but I haven’t found anything and thought who better than you to help me

Hi anon 👋👋👋👋. I'm fine thanks for asking.

My guess is that people is talking about Nadia Padovani. She is the team owner and team principal of Gresini Racing MotoGP™. She was Maried to Fausto Gresini and she took over the management of the team once Fauto died.

People talk about her because she's (I think) the first female to be team principal in MotoGP. Also because Gresini is doing well at the moment and a lot of riders have been part of that family at some point. Gresini is considered to be a family team, where riders are happy.

People is also talking about her because she has said she ask Fausto about any important decision, such as when they decided to sign Marc (or any other rider). And also people is reminding that she is the cause Diggia doesn't have a bike at the moment because she has signed Marc.

Overall she seems to be one of the 'good' team managers on the paddock and good for women in motorsports to have a so visible face up there.

As always people is invited to talk more about this not only in the comments or the tags, also in this same post
