"(About Lilli Carati) We called her the “velvet doll” because she was petite, not very tall and very beautiful. She had a well-proportioned body and was very sensual. [...] When we acted together, she was very young, while I was in my thirties or forties. She wasn't just beautiful, she was one of the few talented actresses of the time. Many of the girls who played those roles were foreigners, they were talented, but they had to struggle with the language. Each had a different kind of sensuality. She spoke well, she was very smart. I think she was also cultured, because she expressed herself correctly and demonstrated a certain level of education."
