Annamaria Clementi

Annamarie Clementi grew up with a brother who had a deep burning passion and obsession with cinema. Clementi was discovered walking down a street by agent Pino Pellegrino, who asked Clementi if she wanted to be an actress. Annamaria started acting in movies in small parts. After playing Sister Angela in the sublimely sleazy _Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals (1977)_ (qv) for notorious Italian exploitation director 'Joe D'Amato' (qv), Clementi tackled a rare lead role in D'Amato's equally trashy _Pleasure Shop on the Avenue (1979)_ (qv). In the wake of calling it a day as an actress, Annamaria went on to become a casting agent.::woodyanders
