they said with a certain misogyny. Admittedly, Coppola was one of the first to hire him, but for a silent role, in 1992, in “Dracula”.

She replies that she has always looked for differences, being in the credits of both blockbusters and films that have never even found a distributor. “My background resembles me and age gives me new strength.
