HelpRe: Old Hollywood Insp. CAF (Part 2)
in reply to a message by Antique_Cherub
In 1940 at age 31, Wilda would go on to win an Oscar for her portrayal of a heartbroken wife who combs the beach, looking for the husband she lost at sea in “Albatross”. In her speech she thanked her parents for teaching her how to work hard, her daughter, for bring light into her life, and, to the gasps of the audience, her ex-husband for teaching her how to take a punch. Later in an interview, she would recount how her first marriage was “fueled by liquor and jealousy”, and how it was her daughter who gave her strength to leave her abusive relationship.
In 1945, Wilda would go on to star in a romantic comedy “Flirting”, opposite Italian heartthrob, Dario Mastroianni. After dating for only half a year, they would get married in his hometown of Venice, Italy. Paparazzi fought to get a snap of the bride’s dress, made entirely of Venetian lace, or her twenty-inch train. Her new husband was known for his charm, his accent, and the fact he could speak five languages: Italian, English, French, Spanish, and German. In 1947, Wilda would become a mother again to boy-girl twins. Wilda and Dario were together five years, before calling it quits due to “irreconcilable differences”. Luckily, the two remained good friends, and their children would spend their summers in Venice, with their father.

Unlike Willy, Gioia would thrive in the spotlight. With her thick black hair, green eyes, and Patrician nose – all courtesy of her father – she would become something of a sex symbol after her film debut in 1966 at the tender age of nineteen. The film, “Spider’s Kiss”, is a cult classic made with an all-European cast and shot in English. She would go on to star in several more Giallo films, to model for Vogue, and to eventually marry the frontman of the Brit-rock band “The Deceivers”, Dax Roxburgh. They are one of the longest enduring couples of Hollywood, and the parents of four children.

Andrea would become a photojournalist for Time Magazine. He and his long-time girlfriend, Rita Lopez, were planning on getting married in 1972 when he went missing in Cambodia, thought to be captured by communist guerillas. He was never seen, or heard from, again. Later, his mother would have him declared dead in absentia. It was one of the hardest times in Wilda's life, and she would never speak of him publicly again. His girlfriend was only two months pregnant with their child, a little girl, when he disappeared.
