Ava Gardner

Ava Gardner was striking, to be sure, but I still think that the most attractive thing about her was her confidence. Ava loved her some Ava and it came through in every movie, every interview, and every picture!

From what I’ve read she wasn’t quite as sweet as Rita Hayworth or as naive as Marilyn Monroe. She was Ava from her head to her toes and never tried to be anyone else. She seemed to have the attitude that anyone who didn’t accept her on her terms wasn’t worth her time. Kind of like Katharine Hepburn. Sad that when actors were strong, confident, and self-assured - they were looked at as demi-gods. But when actresses had these traits, they were….well, something all together different.
