@SoCalGal52 A lot of Americans prefer living in other countries. What part of her family would she miss? No doubt she loved her family but her experience with the world was far different from theirs. When I retire, I plan on living in other countries... I am not a star just a maverick nobody who loves walking down the backstreets of the world. I enjoyed reading your post and I'm sure your take on things is accurate. Best wishes, Lancer

@bronteteri She lived in Spain for years then moved to London where she eventually died. She is buried in North Carolina next to her parents. This is a really sad song thinking about what could have been. I think they were both too impetuous and fiery, plus she aborted his baby, and he never forgave her for that. It seems to me that she was a somewhat sad person after she and Frankie divorced, and to live the rest of her days in Europe, away from her family. How lonely she must have been.

Ava was blessed with a face that could launch a MILLION ships--forget a thousand!

That sort of beauty only comes along once in a century, possibly a millenia...!!!!

@headedsomewhere he loved his first wife for sure and she was the mother of his children but he didn't love her like he loved ava with that passion. Ava was his soulmate and the love of his life.

they were just sad people after they divorced...she made movies but she always looked sad..then she leaves America and lives in Spain her remaining days.. wonder if that was to put the miles between them? Guess she never went back home to North Carolina hills where she was born... beautiful woman.

You might mention, too, that it was written by Matt Dennis and Tom Adair. Lovely stuff, in any case ...
