Sweet and unlucky Annamaria

(5 out of 5 stars)
"Annamaria Pierangeli, know in usa only as Pier Angeli, has been a very troubled woman. Her relationship with James Dean, a strong mother.... Her life has been very strange, with great success and deep depressions. From stars to suicide, Annamaria can be the symbol of so many people raised by Hollywood and then pushed aside.
This japanese reissue of her rare lp is a little tresure. Not because she was a great singer. She can sing, her rendition of italian standards is nice. But what makes these reissue so important is that they are actually little, sometimes funny, works of art, made for us by gifted artists. Do not expect Sarah Vaughan, just listen to this little italian sweet voice and dream of Sicily, Hollywood and... the real era of movie stars."
