She was wonderful-- I was waiting for Lucas to give her his late mother's ring he wore around his neck.

This was a lovely film-- not at all what I expected, but I found it very touching and I really enjoyed it.

Give thanks for a little and you will find a lot.

oh come on..:D anyway, she's a fantastic italian actress (from south italy, just like me:D). quite reasonable doubt, anyway :D

Sorry there is not a drag-queen alive that could have carried off the part of Rose. Victoria was on for just a few minutes but she carried the movie , which by the way I thought was very good. Martin's part was a little annoying , but all and all it was a good flik. Martin wants , Martin gets' , Martin pushes away his love. Don't forget this was 1997 , and Aids was still a hot topic .

it would be of no use to just forget about it as some on this board would want

Victoria was simply wonderful in this film... She has an off-beat but sweet and delicious presence, which is just the right note for this nice movie... Bravo! If I was a director, I would give this wonderful actress a movie...!

I just don't know why she has not been more popular in the Movies she has a presence that is rare...and should have been picked up by the gay world as a women to be...a great actress!!

...life is a fugue in "F" major, and I am standing on the shore , waiting...

She did get picked up by film director Jacques Nolot in a 2002 flick called " La Chatte À Deux Têtes"... U-tube has a clip of this film and it looks quite interesting... and the film got some good reviews too... and was screened at Cannes... check it out.
Yes, Vittoria does have a screen presence... Actually she reminds me of another great actress, Carmen Maura, in Pedro Almoddóva's 1998 film, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. That film came out 10 years ago, in 2002, and Vittoria still looks great then...

I am also a great fan of Almodovar's films and Carmen Maura & Peredies are two of my favorite's . Peredies was great in "The Devils Backbone" ,All About MY Mother'.

'Victoria is just as facinating as any of Pedro's female leads, I would like to see her in a P.A's film Thanks for the info
