Orson Welles on Rita Hayworth’s performance in The Lady from Shanghai:
“Rita’s awfully good in it…. At the time, people didn’t even notice—she was too famous as a cover girl. Oh, the French loved her. But then the French do not automatically assume that if a girl is beautiful it follows that she’s a lousy actress.”
(Quote from This Is Orson Welles, 193)
