(1946) Gilda

ROMANTIC/ DRAMA

What I remembered most about this film are the dialogue exchanged between it's two central characters of Glenn Ford and Rita Hayworth. And the reason that is so is because often what I see in most films is that it is always the females that're sometimes playing hard to get, but in this case on a civilized, controlled, respectable manner that it was the guy playing hard to get. I often don't see that kind of thing happen in too many films, and when I do see that happen, it would be like "that was fast" before the two leads decided they would be together!!

Rita Hayworth is stunning. I think that sentence HAS to start off this review because even today her star quality and ritzy glamor shine in this picture. Gilda to me is not even the main character of this picture however, it's the two men whose lives revolve around her. Glenn Ford is hired to look over a casino by a man who ends up marrying Gilda unexpectedly. What his boss doesn't know is that Gilda is his ex lover, and so the tension isn't just high, it's soaring.

Rita Hayworth is exceptional in this picture, but I think it is really Glenn Ford who takes the cake and keeps the movie going as well as it does. His characters' quick wit and short temper are ablaze and his interactions with Gilda are the reasons I watch movies; I was totally captivated and engrossed in the picture.

The picture also has a ton of twists and turns which made it all the more interesting, Glenn Ford's boss marrying Gilda is just one of many, many more. I wouldn't want to spoil the picture but one scene pretty far into the picture shocked me pretty good and I definitely didn't see it coming. It may have just been the scenery but I also thought this movie reminded me of a 40's version of Casino, with way less violence and much more glamor.

I honestly picked up this movie after seeing a poster of it in David Lynch's 'Mullholland Drive' and one of the characters who had amnesia named herself Rita, based on seeing Rita Hayworth's name on the poster. I was interested cause the poster looked really good and I had not seen a Hayworth picture yet and thought it would be the best place to start if any.

All in all, this movie has great acting, a superb story and really good cinematography for a dated picture. I was thoroughly pleased with it and have a giant crush on Rita Hayworth...

Didn't really strike a chord with me. Seems like a poor man's Casablanca. Started off rather cryptically, with curious obfuscation of the relationships and motives. Never really took off though, leaving me confused and bemused at the end.

A sexy and good looking film. Rita Hayworth has never looked or been better than in this film.

Rita Hayworth is the symbol of freedom in Stephen King's novella from which this review's title is taken. However, it is not that novella--nor even the movie based on it!--that we'll be reviewing tonight. Instead, we're taking a look at the movie the pinup is taken from.

In Gilda, Rita Hayworth is the kind of woman who brought King's Andy Dufresne to his fate, with one major difference--this woman feels some sense of shame about who and what she is. She has married for money, and she's fairly honest about it; probably even her husband knows, whether he'll admit it to himself or not. She knows that she's bad for the men around her. She knows that she's bad at being married. She is, so far as we are left to suppose, loyal enough so that she's not actually sleeping with anyone else.

The documentary about Rita Hayworth that comes with the DVD refers to the plot as melodramatic and almost impossible to follow, but I'm not sure that's true. Certainly not if you look at it as a character study. Or a dual one, really, because we are certainly as involved in Johnny Farrell. It's the portrait of two people, people who both love and hate each other. What happens around them is largely irrelevant.

Actually, my grandmother looked not unlike Rita Hayworth herself, when she was younger. She was a lovely woman--they both were. This predisposes me to like Rita Hayworth movies, though I admit I haven't seen many of them. She's definitely sexy, and she's a talented actress as well. It's a shame that so many people care more about the former than the latter--even today.

Rita Hayworth at her most beautiful, most sexy and most alluring. This is her most famous role, perhaps not her best, but she is damn good. The film goes over the top sometimes, but that's also what makes it so enormously appealing. It is Hayworth's picture all the way. The "Put the Blame On Mame" is one of the sexiest and tantalizing scenes ever filmed. Superb costumes and sets.
