She was a stunner.

There’s one of those mashup vids on the ‘Tube, the scenes were taken from the movie “You’ll Never Get Rich” — it’s Fred A and Rita apparently dancing to Led Zep “Rock and Roll”. ;^)

One of the best looking screen stars ever.

Sad that she had serious mental health issues, I think, compromised by the then “star system”.

One of her famous comments, in that regard, was “Men want to go to bed with Gilda (one of her screen siren characters) but they wake up with Rita”

Watch her on YouTube. I think she’s very equal to her dance partner, Fred Astaire.

Later the movie Xanadu was made based on this with Olivia Newton-John & Gene Kelly.

She was such a superb athlete. I have saved that “staying alive video”, where she proves she has the range of skill to dance with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly.

Never guilty.
