Nicoletta Machiavelli

Nicoletta Machiavelli had a career in Italian cinema that lasted into the early 1980s. She was born on 1st August 1944 in Ravarino, Italy, and died on 15th November 2015 at the age of 71. Nicoletta was a tall presence on screen, standing 5'9" with a slim build. Her natural brown hair and brown eyes were paired with a look that fit the dramatic roles of her era. She appeared in both film and television, though her filmography is often remembered for its range rather than a single defining part. After the early eighties, she stepped away from the spotlight, leaving behind a body of work that continues to be discovered by new audiences. Nicoletta embraced full nudity in some of her roles, a choice that was more common in the European cinema of her time. Her nationality was Italian, and her ethnicity Caucasian, details that shaped the kinds of characters she was cast to play. Her life and work remain a chapter in the history of Italian film.
