Her mother is actress Daria di Nicolodi and her father is Dario de Argento, an Italian film director, producer and screenwriter, well known for his work in the Italian giallo genre and for his influence on modern horror and slasher movies. Her maternal great-grandfather was composer Alfredo Casella. Asia Argento started acting at the age of nine, playing a small role in a film by Sergio Citti. She also had a small part in Demons 2, a 1986 film written and produced by her father, at the age of 10, as well as its unofficial sequel, La Chiesa (The Church), when she was 14, and Trauma (1993), when she was 18. She received the David di Donatello (Italy's version of the Academy Award) for Best Actress in 1994 for her performance in Perdiamoci di vista, and again in 1996 for Compagna di viaggio, which also earned her a Grolla d'oro award. In 1998, Argento began appearing in English-language movies, such as B. Monkey and New Rose Hotel. Argento has proven her ability to work in multiple languages, adding French, with a role as Charlotte de Sauve in 1994's La Reine Margot. That same year, she made her first foray into directing, calling the shots behind the short films Prospettive and A ritroso. In 1996, she directed a documentary on her father, and in 1998 a second one on Abel Ferrara, which won her the Rome Film Festival Award. Argento directed and wrote her first movie, Scarlet Diva (2000), which her father co-produced. In 2002, she portrayed Russian undercover spy Yelena in the action film XXX alongside Vin Diesel. In 2004 she directed her second film The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things, based on a book by JT LeRoy, the pen name of Laura Albert, this time in the United States.

for Vincenza Santorini in Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Suggested by mr95
Many centuries ago, an accidental energy discharge caused a titanic tsunami that threatens to destroy the capital city of Atlantis. A huge azure light floating above the city calls upon the King and pulls him up so that they would be bonded in order to save the city. His young son, Prince Kidogakash, watches in tears before his mother, Queen Kashekine Nedakh, runs to him and covers his eyes. The power of the crystal creates a protective barrier around the center of the city, keeping it from being destroyed by the tsunami. However, it also results in the city being buried beneath the subsiding waters. In 1914, Mila Jennifer Thatch is preparing her presentation to her employers at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. on the lost continent of Atlantis. She notes that she believes there is a power source that the Atlanteans used and that it could still be hidden within the sunken city. She reasons that there is a book called the Shepherd's Journal that has been seen throughout history that would contain a detailed road map to the city and believes that the book is in Iceland. During the presentation, she gets a call to fix the boilers, revealing that she is not an employed linguist or cartographer, but rather the janitor. The Institution's board then attempts to deceitfully back out.
