She started off in small roles in Spaghetti Westerns, often uncredited, before landing more prominent parts in the giallos <strong>Torso <\/strong>and <strong>The Case of the Bloody Iris<\/strong>, in both of which she made for a most fetching victim.  Later in the 70s, she gravitated towards comedies, making an impression as a saucy maid in the acclaimed Adriano Celentano comedy <strong>Yuppi du<\/strong> and, err, a maid in the rather less celebrated Mario Bianchi sex comedy <strong>The Black Maid<\/strong>.  After a short gap from the screen, she began popping up in the post-apocalypse wave of films, and has recently appeared in a couple of tv parts.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, however, information about her is very hard to find.  I was unable to dig up any kind of biography, but I assume she was Italian.  Unless&#8230; she is allegedly the same person as Moune Duvivier, who appeared in the Bruno Mattei film <strong>Rats Night of Terror<\/strong> (this is according to Italian databases).  &#8216;Moune Duvivier&#8217; also had tiny parts in an number of UK TV shows: <strong>Pulaski <\/strong>(87), <strong>Strike It Rich<\/strong> (90), <strong>Wings of Fame<\/strong> (90).  So could she possibly have been a Brit, possibly acting under assumed names?
