This is the part I really like, where she does that shit with her hair.

[VodKaLogic]

This is the single most beautiful character entry in cinema history.

@rockybrazil1 Excellent info!!

[rockybrazil1]

You can see her showing her latin origin in her first film, "Charlie Chan in Egypt", with her original name, black hairs, different from that Rita we are used to see, but beautiful the same. She was only 17, and the film is from 1935. Can get it in DreaMule. Her father arrived in the US in 1914; he was spanish and she started dancing flamenco, with him, when she was 13..

@rockybrazil1 Thanks for the info hun! I saw a montage of her Performances and she was Dancing Flamenco Style and she also was playing a Guitar. What a shame it was that Actresses had to hide their "Latin" Heritage or they wouldn't get the part.

@LadyTwentySeven It's a pítty films like these can't be seen anymore.

[rockybrazil1]

@laminage Yes; Rita's real name was Margarita Cansino. She marreid Ali Khan in 1951 and became a princess. She became muslim and tried to memorize Koran. Later they divorced and she came back to Hollywood. Her daughter Yasmin is a princess.

@kittyscratchesboo Wait...wait, wait wait....you mean my line was in a movie?

Well thank you kittyscratchesboo, I had NOOOOO idea.

@x3Stacy Yeah, it sounds kinda silly. But her voice is normal afterwords.

[laminage]

That was the best example of "Hair Tossing" I've ever seen. Was she Hispanic, and wasn't she a Princess as well?

@TarantinoDork Those 92 thumbs up belong to Morgan Freeman and Stephen King. Just like a real Tarantinodork ~~~~he stole people's ideas too from past films until some one bust him out for being an un original thief. He hasn't made much since. So now he's all dork!

[kittyscratchesboo]

@gridergirl At least you are honest when you give credit to where credit's due! ;-) Unlike TarrantinoDork up there and" Quentin" Tarantino is a real thief in Hollywood too, he steals ideas from film directed in obscurity all the time until he finally got busted by a true afficiando and that is when Ted Turner came to the rescue and put the phony out of business (Which is why we have Turner Classic Movies) ;-)
