I’ve moved things around the gallery a little bit as I came to the conclusion that it would be easier to navigate if I moved the relationship and family photos in their own categories. The changes have been made and new photos have been uploaded in many of the albums. Rita always looked her happiest when among her family, especially her two daughters, so do brighten up your day by looking at the lovely imagery.
“It’s only that I do what I love and love what I do / Can’t help the mad desire that’s deep inside of you.”
I have updated the gallery with more high quality images from Vincent Sherman’s film noir, Affair in Trinidad (1952), which stars Rita as Chris Emery and her great leading man, Glenn Ford, as Steve Emery.
I have uploaded DVD screencaptures of Rita’s role as Sheila Winthrop in the Hayworth-Astaire military musical You’ll Never Get Rich (1941), which marks one of Rita’s very first big hit pictures. While I personally much prefer You Were Never Lovelier from the two films she did with Fred, Rita looks absolutely gorgeous in each frame, already shows a great comedic timing and I just adore her chemistry – and dancing! – with Fred Astaire in You’ll Never Get Rich. It is definitely a must see for any Rita fan!
Today I’ve uploaded quite a bit of photos in the gallery, including images of Rita Hayworth in the 1960s and 1970s, as well as some film stills. Rita was such a beautiful woman in every age. Please click here to view all of the new additions.
“If I’d been a ranch, they would’ve named me ‘The Bar Nothing.’”
Here is the second Gilda gallery update that I’ve been promising, which includes production stills and photoshoots of Rita in her legendary, career defining role. Needless to say, Ms. Hayworth looks absolutely flawless in every frame of the picture!
