Asia Argento - March 1998 Don't be fooled by her Pre-Raphaelite beauty - this actress is happiest plumbing the depths of deviance By Glenn Kenny "I must inspire something crooked in directors." Asia Argento laughs when it's pointed out that terrible things happen to her onscreen. Stalked in Trauma, killed by a kiss in Queen Margot, tortured in The Stendhal Syndrome (a horror fan cult item via import video), she's now navigating a violent transition between street life and stability in B. Monkey, in which she plays a graffiti artist caught in entanglements both romantic and criminal. "There's this strange synchronicity between my life and my movies," the Italian-born Argento notes of Monkey, director Michael Radford's follow-up to Il Postino. "Before I went to do Monkey, I was hanging out with a graffiti gang in Rome - not for research or anything, just because..." Though she never admits to nail-biting during the film's casting process - the first director, Michael Caton-Jones, left after Miramax nixed his choice for the lead, then Radford ended up picking the relatively unknown Argento - the 22-year-old actress takes pride at having beaten out a thousand others to play opposite Rupert Everett and Jared Harris. "I was the first person interviewed for the role," she says, "and after all that, they came back to me." The daughter of horror director Dario Argento (who crookedly put her through her paces in Trauma and Stendhal), Argento's been acting since age nine and has done twenty pictures in Italy. As she goes international (she recently shot New Rose Hotel with director Abel Ferrara), she says she has no dreams of "big movie, big bucks - I just want to do my thing." Which she hopes will be directing features eventually: "It's interesting to be an instrument, but it's more interesting to be the guy who plays the instrument."
