Pina Menichelli

In the world of the silent screen Italian actress Pina Menichelli was a superstar, a diva, a femme fatale. Giuseppa Iolanda Menichelli (10 January 1890 – 29 August 1984), known as Pina Menichelli, was an Italian actress and silent film star. After a career in theatre and a series of small film roles, Menichelli was launched as a film star when Giovanni Pastrone gave her the lead role in Il Fuoco (1915).
