(1946) dir Charles Vidor w/Rita Hayworth, Glenn Ford, George Macready [110 min]
When washed-up gambler Johnny Farrell (Ford) is saved from a bullet in seedy post-war Argentina by casino owner Ballin Mundson (Macready), he becomes Mundson’s right-hand man. But Johnny quickly finds himself in a love-hate triangle when his boss acquires a sultry wife, Gilda (Hayworth), a woman with whom Johnny shares a past. Of course, GILDA also features Hayworth’s heart-stopping ‘striptease’ rendition of “Put The Blame On Mame” – worth the price of admission all on its own.
