Lady from Shanghai

[RetroMom]

Wow, what a great movie!!

I just finished watching this on TCM. It's pouring rain here in Ct., so it was a perfect movie day

I love a good mystery/suspense film and this held my attention all the way.

Any other fans out there?

A little t-AAHH-get practice.

 

[Marc Chevalier]

Rita Hayworth

Hey its Rita Hayworth's Birthday (October 17, 1918)
Happy Birthday Rita, we miss you!

I have this DVD but haven't had the time to see, I've read reviews, it should be a good one. Lady from Shanghai :eusa_clap

Oh, I DVR'ed this for later. It's rainy and cold out tonight, great night for (yet another) movie.

Rita Hayworth was an incredible beauty. Her parents were Spanish, you know.

Her parents were Spanish, you know.

Rita's father, Eduardo Cansino, was Spanish but her mother, Volga Hayworth, was Irish American.

Thanks! Irish blood mixes well. Think Anthony Quinn: Mexican-Irish.

He wasn't Greek!?!

 

[Marc Chevalier]

And he wasn't a Bedouin chieftain, either.

[Tomasso]

Irish blood mixes well.

I'm not a geneticist but I'd certainly agree that it doesn't hurt to have a little Irish in the genes.

Think Anthony Quinn

.

Several years ago, I was standing on a mid-town Manhattan corner, waiting to cross the street. As I waited for the light, a car that was attempting to make a right turn stopped in the crosswalk right in front of me. Anthony Quinn was in the passenger seat, in a fully reclined position. Our eyes met and he gave me a wink, to which I returned a smile. A moment later, the light changed and we were both on our way. He passed away around a month later.

Unfortunately

Unfortunately, HollyWood and it's current lacking
of original ideas, is re-making Lady From Shanghai...

They can never leave well enough alone...
