How did Clarissa Burt land the role?
First off, she is former Ms. Universe. Secondly, the majority of her acting portfolio is Italian. How ever did she land the role?
shareI was wondering that myself, because she bears no resemblance whatsoever to Xayide's depictation on the box art. Maybe because she was Miss Universe-level beautiful, yet unknown to American audiences? Maybe because the director wanted an actress who would over-the-top emote, as Burt obviously threw herself into.
