Noris Assia began her artistic career in France. When she came to live in Italy, she was initiate by Amato, an expert of the Italian starry firmament, in the film Tre uomini in frak. Then came Una donna fra due mondi, which was like the graduation exam for the young actress, who immediately jumped into the foreground for her capricious acting style and her very peppery, devilish temperament.[1]
Married to the director Mario Camerini, she worked very often with him, and under his expert guidance, she gave life to her most sincere cinematographic creatures, much humanly felt.[1]
