Italian actress Sophia Loren was named one of the greatest female stars of Classical Hollywood cinema by the American Film Institute. As of 2022, she is the only surviving person on AFI’s list.

She began her film career at the age of sixteen with minor roles until her five-picture contract with Paramount launched her international career.
