Lisa Gastoni | 86 years old

There is certainly no doubt that Lisa Gastoni was hailed as the Best Italian Actress of the Year back in 1996, along with receiving two more awards that included a Golden Globe. A native of Italy, her family migrated to England back in 1948. She originally intended to be an architect but went on to be a successful model and actress.

In the 1950s, she played minor roles in several series such as The Four Just Men and Danger Man. During the 1960s, she returned to Italy and caught the attention of respected directors. She eventually appeared in Grazie, zia and Cuore Sacro. During the 1980s, Gastoni took a step back from acting and put all of her investments into painting and writing.
