As we fire ’em up, we might send glamorous birthday greetings to Luciana Paluzzi; she was born on this date in 1937. An actress whose career began with an uncredited walk-on in Three Coins in the Fountain in 1954, she acted in dozens of films, mostly in Italy, until 1965, when she appeared in her best-known role, SPECTRE assassin Fiona Volpe in the fourth James Bond film, Thunderball.
