Fans with flowers greeted movie legend Sophia Loren when she stepped off
a plane in Sydney early today for a film festival and charity engagements.



Sophia Loren arrives in Sydney.

Looking fresh after her long flight, the 72-year-old Italian film star
was welcomed by a small band of admirers and by organisers of Sydney's
Italian Australian Film Festival.

Loren, who began her film career in 1951 and who won the 1962 best
actress Oscar for La Ciociara (Two Women), will attend the world premiere
of the festival's opening film, Anita, on Saturday.

She will also be the guest of honour at The Serata Con Sophia (An Evening
With Sophia) Ball at Miramare Gardens on Sunday.

The gala event will raise money for burns victim Sophie Delezio and the
Day of Difference Foundation.

The Italian Australian Film Festival, affiliated with Sydney's Italian
Festival, will feature 10 Italian films over five days from Saturday.
