Listen to Rita Hayworth and husband Orson Welles perform Break of Hearts for Lux Radio Theatre. Rita plays Ann opposite Orson’s Franz in the play, which was presented by Cecil B. DeMille on September 11, 1944. The couple had just celebrated their first anniversary! The last clip features a short but never the less interesting interview with them.

Hop on to the BBC Archive website to listen to a wonderful and rare four minute audio interview with Rita, which was originally broadcast July 14, 1956. She is interviewed during a visit to London about her latest film, Fire Down Below (1957), in which she plays alongside Jack Lemmon and Robert Mitchum. A softspoken Rita talks about her return to the big screen, her role in the movie, her wishes for future parts and sightseeing the city of London. A lovely little gem for all Rita fans!
