Affair in Trinidad

Rita Hayworth Spanish dancer Eduardo Casinos daughter Margarita was trained as a dancer from early childhood. At age 12, mature looking Rita joined Eduardo's stage act in which she was spotted by Fox studio head Windfield R. Sheehan, leading to her first studio contract and film debut at age 16 in Dante's Inferno (1935). Fox dropped her after five small roles, but expert, exploitative promotion by first husband Edward Judson soon brought Rita a new contract at Columbia Pictures, where studio head Harry Cohn changed her name to Hayworth and approved raising her hairline by electrolysis. After 13 mainly minor roles, Columbia lent her to Warner Bros. for her first big success, The Strawberry Blonde (1941); her splendid dancing with Fred Astaire in You'll Never Get Rich (1941) made her a star. In person Rita was shy, quiet and unassuming; only when the cameras rolled did she turn on the explosive sexual charisma that in Gilda (1946) made her a superstar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d1C1qQ_VoI To Rita, though, domestic bliss was a more important, if elusive, goal, and in 1949 she interrupted her career for marriage-unfortunately an unhappy one almost from the start--to playboy Prince Aly Khan. Her films after her divorce from Khan include perhaps her best straight acting performances, Miss Sadie Thompson (1953) and They Came to Cordura (1959). From 1960 (age 42), early onset of Alzheimer's disease (undiagnosed until 1980) limited Rita's powers; the last few roles in her 60-film career were increasingly small. Almost helpless by 1981, Rita was cared for by daughter Yasmin Khan until her death at age 68. Rita Hayworth Hija de un bailarn espaol Eduardo Cansino, Margarita se form como bailarina desde su infancia. A los 12 aos, tenia un aspecto maduro y Rita se uni al acto de su padre, alli fue descubierta tres aos ms tarde por el jefe del Fox Studio Winfield R. Sheehan. La contrataron y debuto en el cine cuando tenia 16 aos en el film Infierno de Dante (1935). Luego Fox le dio cinco pequeos papeles, pero al casarse con Edward Judson un experto en promociones artsticas ella obtuvo otro contrato con Columbia Pictures, donde cambiaron su nombre por el de Hayworth. Despus de 13 trabajos Columbia la prest a Warner Bros. y obtuvo su primer gran xito, (1941 La Rubia Pelirroja). Mas tarde su esplndido baile con Fred Astaire en Nunca Sers Rica (1941) la hizo estrella. En persona Rita era tmida, tranquila y sin pretensiones, slo cuando las cmaras rodaban se veia su carisma sexual que en Gilda (1946) la convirti en una superestrella. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d1C1qQ_VoI Sin embargo para Rita su felicidad fue ms importante pero difcil de alcanzar. En 1949 interrumpi su carrera para contraer matrimonio con el Playboy Prncipe Aly Khan y el matrimonio termino en divorcio. Despus realizo sus mejores actuaciones como actriz. En 1960 y a los 42 aos comenzo con precoz Alzheimer la cual fue diagnosticada recien en 1980 y limito las funciones de Rita. Casi indefensa en 1981, Rita fue atendida por hija Yasmin Khan, hasta su fallecimiento a los 68 aos. Please, click
