Rita Hayworth in Gilda - first appearance in the movie (complete scene)

Johnny Farrell (Glenn Ford) meets Gilda (Rita Hayworth) for the 'first' time in this great movie. Johhny works for Ballin Mundson (George Macready) and finds out that when his boss returns from a trip he's gotten himself a canary:). Ballin introduces Johnny to his canary. It's obvious that Johnny and Gilda do not like each other to say the least. Watch the movie to find out why. I highly recommend it!

I really like how - in classic Hollywood tradition - her first appearance is accompanied by the music to "Put The Blame On Mame", which she's humming. And then, towards the end, she notoriously sings the song in the nightclub while drunkenly pulling off one glove and enticing all the men in the audience to assist her in taking off other clothing. So the same song is in these two pivotal scenes.

Rita was Fred Astaire's partner before Ginger Roger's. Fred was to say in some ways he preferred her. However, what is interesting is Rita has been written out of Fred's dancing history - yes I do know she only made a few films with him. But she still deserves a mention

[@hebneh]

No, Ginger made multiple movies in the 1930s with Fred, and it was only after their last one in that decade ("The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle") that Fred appeared with Rita. Fred and Ginger later made one last film together ("The Barkleys of Broadway").

People sometimes wonder why Gilda flipped her hair like that. It was no affectation. The proper way to brush your hair out at the end of the evening is to hold your head down, brush it upside down from root to tip, flip it up, and then smooth it back down. A proper brush out was part of every lady's toilette. It distributed the oils to the hair, and kept the scalp healthy. The gentlemen had walked in while she was brushing her hair out, which would not have looked as glamorous as the flip when she was done.

Rita was so exquisite in this film- her beauty breathtaking. She was luminescent, sexy, but, not forced or trashy like todays concept of sex appeal. Many actresses in Hollywood can learn from Rita. All she did was flip her hair and let a shoulder strap fall yet she smoldered.

[@christopherrourke9701]

I don't think that there is much value in making a comparison with other actors... Rita, like Garbo was unique. She didn't find herself to be at 'sexy' (read her interviews or the accounts of her actors and lovers) but she was remarkably fluent in movement and was quite brilliant in the medium of cinema, in which close-up photography magnifies a 'star's' appeal.

Just watched this movie and it's a really really good movie. There's a lot of layers, and some of the pieces don't quite come together, but the real movie is about the relationship between Johnny and Ballin, and Johnny and Gilda. There's a lot more than initially meets the eye, so pay attention. Humphrey Bogart turned down the roll of Johnny Ferrell. He thought that people would be paying too much attention to Rita Hayworth. But understanding some of the complex relationships it also kind of explains why Bogey might have turned down the role. And yes Rita Hayworth is absolutely stunning. For those who already know, she was a highly trained dancer so some of the dance scenes are not to be missed. But her sex appeal is second only to her beauty.
