She was a better Bond girl than Swann.

Also, she was also considered for a Bond girl during Brosnan’s days. But the producers declined her and Brosnan was disappointed.

The first movie I ever saw her was Malena. She was always a fascinating actress, but she’s a really fascinating person.

God’s favorite. The way her face stayed this way at 60 looks amazing. I don’t think surgery can do this it looks natural. That’s crazy. AND LUCKY :’)

Irreversible still remains the most f’d up movie I’ve ever seen. Props to her for getting through that “scene.”

Somehow her daughter came into my algo (I didn’t even know of her) and now Monica herself.
