Nora Ricci, née le 19 juillet 1924 à Viareggio et morte le 16 avril 1976 à Rome, est une actrice italienne.

Biography

Fille de Renzo Ricci et de l'actrice Margherita Bagni, Nora Ricci a passé, après la séparation de ses parents, son enfance chez sa grand-mère paternelle Adolfa Ciapini à Florence, pour ne revenir à Viareggio qu'en été, en vacances chez ses grands-parents maternels.

À 17 ans, elle quitte l'école et s'installe à Rome pour entrer à l'Académie Royale d'Art Dramatique, où elle rencontrera, en 1941, Vittorio Gassman dont elle fut la première épouse de 1944 jusqu’en 1952. et de qui elle eut une fille, Paola Gassman, également comédienne.

Avant tout actrice de théâtre, Ricci a joué avec succès à la télévision. Ses rôles au cinéma ont été marginaux et épisodiques, de simples seconds rôles néanmoins significatifs, comme dans Ces messieurs dames de Pietro Germi en 1965.

Elle travailla régulièrement avec Luchino Visconti, de 1951, dans Bellissima à 1972, dans Ludwig ou le Crépuscule des dieux. Elle a interprété, en 1972 à la télévision, le rôle de Giselda dans la série télévisée des Sœurs Materassi, basée sur le roman du même nom d’Aldo Palazzeschi. Elle avait également participé au drame La Fiera della Vanità d’Anton Giulio Majano en 1967.

Évocation de la vie de Louis II de Bavière, depuis son couronnement à l'âge de dix-huit ans et demi jusqu'à son internement et sa mort à quarante. On y découvre la complicité presque amoureuse qui le lie à sa cousine Sissi (la jeune impératrice d'Autriche-Hongrie) qui est à deux doigts de parvenir à lui faire épouser sa sœur Sophie malgré le peu d'attirance qu'il a pour celle-ci, son entichement déraisonnable pour la musique de Richard Wagner, dont il devient le très généreux mécène au point de lui faire construire un opéra, les circonstances qui l'amènent à céder aux penchants qui lui seront funestes : son goût du rêve, du post-romantisme, des garçons (son palefrenier devenant son chambellan et homme de confiance très intime), des châteaux de contes de fées, pour l'édification desquels il dépense des fortunes et dans lesquels il fuira les dures réalités de son temps (à savoir : l'irrésistible unification allemande autour de la Prusse de Bismarck qui vassalise tous les autres royaumes ou principautés germaniques, Bavière y compris) en s'imaginant, entouré d'une garde rapprochée de serviteurs, qu'il est encore vrai roi en son royaume. Jusqu'à ce que le gouvernement effectif de Munich l'extirpe de son rêve et l'interne au château de Berg… où il meurt dès le lendemain de son arrivée en tentant, dans des circonstances jamais vraiment élucidées, de s'évader.
