* Very Important Notice *
Simonetta Stefanelli is NOT dead! She did NOT die of cancer in 2006. This was an ugly rumor that someone spread. She is alive and well. She owns a boutique in Rome called Simo Bloom. Sadly she is losing customers because of this ugly lie that she has died. Please, let's stop spreading these untruths.

For Beginners: Where to Start?
discover Simonetta Stefanelli
The Godfather I - for her most memrable/popular performance
Tre Fratelli (Three Brothers) - She appears in flashbacks. One of my favorite scenes I've seen of her, when she lost her wedding ring on the beach and searched frantically in the sand for her.
Moses the Lawgiver - extremely brief appearance. She is killed. I guess for being a Pagan or something like that.
Unfortunately, those three are all I know of. See the problem of access to her films?

Simonetta Stefanelli Quotes
"I do not picture myself as a victim at all, nor as a fragile woman. Rather, I go through life with a certain sureness and as far as films are concerned, I think I possess a flair for the dramatic" (Playboy Magazine, March '74)*Do you have any real-life quotes from Simonetta Stefanelli? If so, please e-mail them to me.*
Better access to her films
this is sort of a call-to-action
For most of us who are fans, it is frustrating not to be able to get a hold of most of her films. We need to do something (letters, petitions, etc.) to compel the film companies that own her films to convert them from VHS to DVD. And for those that are already on DVD, they should have more formats (playable in more countries: USA, Canada, etc.) and also, the films should be more readily available on Amazon, Netflix, etc. Simonetta Blog Posts from Google

- I just happened to be watching The Godfather for the twenty-somethings time and decided to see if I could find any additional information on Simonetta Stefanelli. I must say, your resource is the best I have come across. Anyone who was able to participate in this groundbreaking movie, should be able to have an unbiased place of their work.
Keep up the good work. You have done a great job!
