Ken Valentine Wrote:What does "Italian" look like?
If I remember right, Gia's family came from Northern Italy, and up to at least 1893, France went down the left (western) side of the Italian "boot" almost to Rome, and Italy (then called "The Italies") squirted around the Adriatic on the East, all the way down the Dalmatian coast to Ragusa (Dubrovnic) in what was later Yugoslavia.
In the north of what is now Italy, there was a mixture of peoples, French, Swiss, and others.
Maybe you're thinking of the dark-haired, dark-eyed, olive-skinned people who lived in the Southern part of Italy, and Sicily.

I finally have an answer for Ken:
Italian, to me, looks like:
Sophia Loren
Michelle Pfeiffer
Jessica Biel
This list occurred to me when I (again) saw Jessica Biel and said to myself "Damn! She looks just like Gia, to me."
My very next thought was "Damn! She reminds me of Sophia Loren."
...and so on, etc.
She's a little young now, but she'd be perfect in 3 years.
