Buccella screen tested for the role of Domino Derval in the 1965 James Bond film Thunderball. The role eventually went to French actress, Claudine Auger.[1] That year, she appeared in the Dino Risi-directed film Il Gaucho which co-starred actors such as Vittorio Gassman.

In 1966, she played the beauty Miss Okra in the Peter Sellers film After the Fox. In 1968, she won a Silver Ribbon award at the Italian National Syndicate of Film Journalists for Best Supporting Actress (Migliore Attrice Non Protagonista) in the film Ti ho sposato per allegria.[2]

She was featured on the cover of Playboy magazine in July 1977. She virtually retired from film in 1979 although she made two small appearances in the late 1980s and a final appearance in the 2000 TV series Hotel Otello.

gollark: I don't see how that works. That's just putting your brain into bizarre edge-case states, it wouldn't give you visibility into the afterlife or lack thereof (unless whatever controls access to that is very badly designed and easily tricked).
gollark: If it just means it in some fuzzy sense of "we are somewhat connected and should be nice to each other" then... sure, but it should say that directly (in a more eloquent way I can't be bothered to come up with).
gollark: I'm not aware of *other* definitions which, well, make sense.
gollark: Impressive sleep schedule.
gollark: That's not the same thing, though.
