Italian Film Goddess 'Gina Lollobrigida' dies at 95

Throughout the 1950's. The question was, "Who has the Bigger Breasts?" In regards to Italian film actresses Gina Lollobrigida and Sophia Loren. The war over their breasts with the tabloid magazines had lasted for decades. Both beauties had talent and legions of fans around the world. That includes me. 

My favorite film with Gina is, "Beat the Devil" (1954) along-side Humphrey Bogart. It has become a cult classic 65+ years after its' release. My second favorite is "Trapeze" (1956) with Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis. I had watched both movies too many times. 

Gina Lollobrigida has died at age 95 and I will miss her as a fan. She was a beautiful, talented, sexy, Italian woman. RIP....
