Sophia Loren may be 73, but the raven hared beauty still turns heads and makes hearts swoon with her regal looks and killer smile.

Loren spoke to USA today and revealed her beauty secrets. "If you think joyful about life and find a serenity inside of you, it's very gratifying," she tells USA Today. "Then when your children grow up and you start to have grandchildren, it's a divine caress from God. That's the secret."
Loren also shared that she missed her late husband, Carlo Ponti: "I wish," she says, sighing. "To be able to (experience) these kinds of things, you must believe in certain things. I don't even dream about my husband, and it's so sad for me. But in life, I think he's always beside me."
Turner Classic Movies (TCM) channel will celebrate the career of Loren in a 23-film salute.
It starts with 1954's Too Bad She's Bad and ends with 1972's Man of La Mancha (June 26, 5:30 a.m. ET/2:30 PT).
"They followed my career very, very nicely," Loren told USA Today. "The films that really count in my life are there."
She had kind words for her leading men: "Marcello (Mastroianni) was the boy next door, and Cary (Grant) was the dream of my life."
Loren came to Los Angeles to visit her sons and meet with TCM special host, director Rob Marshall. "It was right out of a movie," recalls Marshall, who narrates a tribute part of the Loren TCM marathon.
"My heart almost leapt out of my chest because she's so tall and beautiful. Everything you imagine her to be on screen — the humor, the warmth, that great laugh — is all there in reality."
