The reports said she had an accidental fall in her home in Geneva on Sunday and had suffered a broken hip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Loren has won two Oscars, the first in 1961 for her tragic portrayal of a war-time mother in Vittorio De Sica&#8217;s neo-realistic classic &#8220;La Ciociara&#8221; (Two Women). The second was a career award in 1991.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/image-542-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10032383882 lazy\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of her most memorable and successful film were made with fellow Italian co-star Marcello Mastroianni, who died in 1996. She has also co-stared with Cary Grant, Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra and Paul Newman, among other 20th century film giants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her most recent starring role was in 2020&#8217;s &#8220;La Vita Davanti a Se&#8221; (The Life Ahead).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In it, she plays a former prostitute and Holocaust survivor who looks after children of working prostitutes in the southern Italian city of Bari and helps an orphaned Senegalese migrant boy who had robbed her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was directed by her son, Edoardo Ponti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">News of the fall and hospitalisation was first reported on the Facebook page of Sophia Loren Restaurant, a chain of venues that bears her name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It said she had been planning to open a new one, the fourth in Italy, in Bari on Tuesday.<\/p>\n                                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n                <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                         \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oscar-winning Italian film star Sophia Loren, a national icon and one of the most enduring movie divas of the 20th century, has had surgery after a fall in her home in Geneva, her spokesperson said on Monday.
