Glenn Ford is in Gilda more than Rita Hayworth is and the story is more about his character than hers, but the film still belongs to the gorgeous redhead. She was a true movie star, who had sass, brains, marvelous screen presence and remarkable sex appeal. It's easy to see why the prisoners in The Shawshank Redemption loved watching Charles Vidor's movie over and over again. It isn't a perfect '40s noir though. It has terrific dialogue, but the story is overstuffed. The happy ending isn't really earned either, especially since this has subplots like Germans trying to cash in down in post-WWII Argentina. The 546th hair flip of Have You Ever Seen also features a Ryan rant about the AFI's highly questionable Top 50 Stars list. Value added! So dial up this one-man yammer about Gilda, especially if you want to hear a lot of raves about Rita.
