Rita Hayworth in “Gilda”, 1946
Rita Hayworth, from “Gilda” (1946), singing parts of “Put the Blame on Mame” – acoustic verses and nightclub verses
As the lead actor said just before this clip starts – her voice permeated my dreams – it was also so for me. Watched “Gilda” last night and then heard Rita’s acoustic singing in my dreams all night. Beautiful, haunting. Of course, the nightclub verses are also great in a razzmatazz way.
