Sad that she had serious mental health issues, I think, compromised by the then “star system”.
Think of the Jack Woltz character in “The Godfather”. And his depiction in the movie was much tamer than it was in the novel.
I’m not sure exactly what mental issues Rita Hayworth really had. She was a very talented actress. The biggest mistake she made was marrying Prince Aly Khan. That hurt her a lot. Then in her later year, she ended up with Alzheimer’s.
I was watching the thing last night and probably the most sad case of mistreatment in Hollywood was probably actress Francis Farmer, who did have some mental issues who knows what dealing with the studios and she had a sad ending. She was beautiful and talented.
