Nunca houve outra mulher tal como Rita Hayworth. Exímia dancarina, uma atriz convincente e comediante irresistível, era dona de um sorriso capaz de iluminar um salão.
.
Além de Gilda, personagem que a perseguiu (como todos os grandes personagens fazem com os que os interpretam) até o fim da carreira, teve atuações brilhantes em "Cover Girl", "Salomé" e "Down to earth" onde merecidamente fez o papel de Terpsícore, musa do teatro, canto e dança.
Em 1957, atua em seu último grande musical, "Pal Joey", onde interpreta Vera Simpson, ex-stripper e mecena apaixonada por Joey Evans (Frank Sinatra) que se vê dividido entre o dinheiro e o amor de Linda English (Kim Novak). Na cena abaixo, coagida por Joey, Vera se vê obrigada a confessar em uma festa beneficiente seu passado, contando à platéia o que passava por sua mente durante seus anos no palco.

Hum-hum, strippers pensam. E como. Ok, esta talvez fosse um tantinho esnobe.
"(...) You're looking at a former stripper
But before I unzip ONE zipper
I want you to know that I was quite the artist
But...of the intelectual kind
What was I thinking while I worked you might ask?
While I worked this thoughts kept crossing my mind
(...)
Zip! I was reading Schopenhauer last night
Zip! and I think that Schopenhauer was right.
Sigmund Freud has often stated
Dreams and drives are all related
Zip! I'm a firm believer
Dorothy Dix's daily collum
Tells us love is clear and solid
Zip! I can take or leave her.
Zip! It took intellect to master my art
Zip! Every movement from the heart.
I have read the works of Plato
Translated most of Gato
Zip! I am such a starlet!
I don't care for Whistler's Mother
Charlie's Aunt and Shubert's brother
Zip! (...)
Zip! You have asked me what I think while I work
Zip! I've got intelectual quirk.
And my thoughts may skip whenever so inclined
Oh zip!
Zip! Zip!
I'm a broad with a broad broad mind!"
But before I unzip ONE zipper

Vocês não fazem idéia da quantidade de coisas que conseguem nos ocorrer enquanto sobre o palco. Isto é, além de 5, 6, 7, 8...

Rita Hayworth divide com Lucille Ball o posto de rainha ruiva do meu coração.

Hoje embarco para Joinville, rumo a lindos espetáculos sobre o palco e muita chuva. Tenham uma semana brilhante!
