Luisa Rossi
Luisa Rossi was an Italian actress. She appeared in 25 films between 1941 and 1978.
Born in Milan, Rossi debuted at young age in a significant role in Mario Mattoli's Ho tanta voglia [di cantare]. In 1945 Rossi obtained a large critical appreciation with Leopold Lindtberg's The [Last Chance (1945 film)|The Last Chance], but she failed to capitalize on her early success and her following parts were mainly supporting roles in often modest productions.
Unsatisfied with her film career, since mid-1950s Rossi focused her career on television and especially on stage, in which she worked with, among others, Luchino Visconti, Giorgio Strehler and Dario Fo.
