“So”. This is the intermediate layer that Sabrina Impacatore Use more frequently while chatting with in perfect English Jimmy Kimmel for an international interview coming thanks to the success of the second season of White lotus, the HBO series available on Sky and Now, in which she plays Valentina, the resort’s rude manager who gives the fiction its title. The actress previously told the renowned magazine Vulture: “I was never the pretty girl who tries to please at any cost and I didn’t care. I always wanted to be myself, free and ready to fight for everyone’s rights”.
More than a sailor warrior, more than an Instagram sensation, Sabrina Impacciatore is the star we always had our eyes on and mistaken her for an abat jour. While Vulture defines it himself”the Italian Lady Gaga“Hoping to soon work on set with Stefani Germanotta, despite all the evidence, we have not been able to earn Sabrina Impacciatore. But she, there’s no doubt, she deserves it all. And finally, she gets it.” it.
Sabrina Impacciatore in the White Lotus
Born in Rome to an Abruzzo father and a Sardinian mother from Burgos, she is known to have been Gianni Boncompagni and hence It’s not Rai to christen his television career. Protagonists of comic interludes, often together with Lucia Ocone, there are those who still have their irreverent heart stake engraved in their memories as in their ventricles. Or the time when, incredibly in the 1990s, he proposed doing Giorgio Pasotti strands without ammonia, directed by Muccino. Then the courses at the Actor Studios in New York and the dream of cinema.

A dream that comes true from TV appearance to TV appearance in the early 2000s. Perhaps the most important artistic partnership is that with director Gabriele Muccino, which gives her the opportunity to shine in L’Ultimo Bacio and A Casa Tutti Bene. Meanwhile, she alternated between small comedies and glamorous forays onto the small screen: in 2010 she was the first woman to conduct the May Concert. Today, with Kimmel, she says it clearly: “When I was a kid, I wrote in my diary that when I grew up I would be an actress and that my life would be a movie. In fact, it was often a horror.” That must be because I forgot to specify the genre at the time.” Impossible not to thank her from the bottom of my heart for always letting her work, her interpretations, instead of attracting attention with catastrophes that obviously must have happened to her. As with each of us.
Intense in both drama and comedy, to distinguish her from the rest of the parterre of faces that are part of our showbiz, an objective fact: she enjoys herself. The antithesis of the Madame Tussauds diva, she gives a genuine impression of being grateful and enthusiastic, a truly hyperactive volcano that overwhelms everyone, even Kimmel herself. It’s impossible not to be fascinated by this 54-year-old woman inspired by a little girl’s passion for exploring the world. The more real it is, the more it works. And he doesn’t seem to have any of the “fake” Impacciatore at all, including gaffes. Although a tremendous professional in her work, she has always shown an absolute star allergy, she cannot take herself seriously, show business is in her DNA. And this has been spontaneously given to the public since the days of Macao when we existed gorgeous aspiring actress Darla with “Monichetta” (Bellucci) as her best friend who tries to sabotage her every step, besides always declaring herself very “happy for her”.
With Giorgio Pasotti in The Last Kiss.
Today, Impacciatore was finally able to shed the comic book mask of every character he’s played and his true colors have come out, the main talent he possesses: personality, charisma, a Mercalli scale of empathic range, so that he would be able to “get” to the interlocutor, primarily the public, even if they were in Turkish in the middle of an interview. Not knowing how to pronounce a word of Turkish. Voted gay icon “although I don’t know why”, Impacciatore is an icon and that’s it. We’ve spent too much time taking it for granted, like it’s a piece of furniture for our small and big screens.
Now that America loves her (Mel Gibson wanted her as Saint Veronica in The Passion of the Christ), we have no excuses: at last, a talent the envy of the world and of which we can be absolutely proud . Usually, success is synonymous with criticism, often a priori. Nemo is a prophet in his homeland, and in fact every time a local personality reaches an international peak, the social pillory begins: “it’s not that much”, “my carpenter with 30,000 lire did better anyway” and so on . In this case it doesn’t happen. Because it’s impossible not to admire the spontaneous brilliance, the disruptive vibrancy of Sabrina Impacciatore. A creature from Unesco heritage, from the championship and from the script. We didn’t deserve it, that’s obvious. But we always have time to recover. Because she deserves everything.
I write. Constantly waiting for questions to be raised in order to be recognized as an Olympic discipline.
