Edwige Fenech (born 1948)

Interview with Barbara Bouchet:

Q: Whenever fans talk about gialli and Italian sexy comedies, the names of two actresses always come up – yourself and Edwige Fenech. What are your memories of La Fenech?

A: (Smiles) We only appeared together in one movie, you know? (Hm, I think there were a couple more than that – Ed.). When they wanted a blonde they would call me, when they wanted a brunette it was Edwige and there were other girls who could fill these roles if we were not available for a movie. The press are always trying to get an angle, to make a story, you know, so they wanted us to be rivals but it was all stupid, there were never any problems with Edwige.

Q: You never appeared in any of the excellent gialli directed by Sergio Martino…

A: … but I appeared in sexy comedies that he directed, which were produced by his brother Luciano, the lover of Edwige.
