A wonderfully perverse noir classic...

Cast and crew spin a twilight magic.

No wonder we all feel nostalgic for the past.

A real 1940s Hollywood treat.

Examples of film noir don't come much headier or more perverse than Charles Vidor's sultry little number...

"There never was a woman like Gilda!" drooled the posters - and no, there probably wasn't.

[Rita] Hayworth's sudden yet glorious entrance is pure Hollywood starmaking...

It put Glenn Ford on the movie star map, and reinforced Rita Hayworth's seamy stardom.

Featuring Rita Hayworth in her best--and sexiest-- performance, this post WWII noir romance centers on one of Hollywood's most bizarre triangles, one ripe with S&M as well as homoerotic overtones--a guilty pleasure if there ever was one.

One of the great films noirs, softened just a little by the moralising censorship strictures of the time. See it.

The camera was in love with Rita Hayworth and she made sure we noticed it. One of the best noirs out there with probably the most strange case of a m�nage a trois ever seen in a Hollywood pic.
