Actresses who have played Snow White in European movies

In my last post, I listed actresses who have played Snow White in U.S. movies and TV series.
Now I’m going to take a look at actresses who have played Snow White in European movies. To a one, they are beautiful women, unlike the recent casting of Rachel Zegler in Disney’s upcoming “Snow White” feature film. (Exhibit 1: See top photo of Italian actress Rossana Podestà in “7 Golden Men” from 1965.) Zegler isn’t ugly, just rather mid.
This list is based on research done by Wikipedia and Internet Movie Database (IMDb).
