Gianna Maria Canale in THE WARRIOR AND THE SLAVE GIRL (1958)
Personally, I love the movie's production, cast, etc. The story? Meh. It's not a compelling story. The direction, by Vittorio Cottafavi, is better than the script. The storyline, of her character poisoning a kid, was really bad. It made her character unredeemable. Gianna was eventually typecast playing evil characters after this role. Aside from a couple of titles, she appeared in a string of movies as the bad girl. It's a shame because she was such a good actress and could play other types of roles.
