Born Doris Kristanel, Krista Nell debuted in French cinema, then moved to Rome where became a minor starlet in Italian genre films, especially Spaghetti Westerns and commedie sexy all'italiana.[1][2] Nell went on to star in such films as Ivanhoe, the Norman Swordsman,[3] and Spaghetti Westerns suchs as Paid in Blood, Blindman, Kill Django... Kill First and Django and Sartana Are Coming... It's the End.
