Sensuality and flirtatiousness: She is a malicious and sensual character, who walks in tight skirts and has a Romagnolo accent (despite the fact that the actress was Turkish by birth and French by passport). Romantic illusion: Despite her sensuality, Gradisca is seen as a slightly mature village beauty, looking for a husband and with romantic dreams.
