2017年CRI Italian actress Maria Grazia Cucinotta: a fan of Chinese pop drama（在线收听）

Boasting an impressive list of screen credits in her native Italy, actress Maria Grazia Cucinotta is probably most famous on the world stage for her role as a ruthless assassin in the 1999 James Bond film "The World Is Not Enough." Cucinotta also played a guest role on the hit American TV series "The Sopranos."

The actress is now in Beijing, as one of the guests invited to attend the closing ceremony of the now-concluded Beijing International Film Festival. Our reporter Sam Duckett sat down with Cucinotta to get her thoughts on the Beijing Film Festival, as well as the Chinese film market and international movie productions.
