Ava Gardner: Behind the Allure Documentary

The most beautiful woman I've ever seen.

Ava Gardner wasn't difficult to work with or late to the set until she did 55 Days At Peking in 1963. Her close friends were Robert Graves & Ernest Hemingway; she was no slouch intellectually.

She is one of the most beautiful actress of her generation. I bought her biography so I can learn more about her I only know her through films I watch in turner classic movie I’m born way way back during her time I only knew about her through my grandmother. I hope I can visit her museum in North Carolina someday

My fav Ava movie,, "Night Of The Iguana"

liked her for her great beauty. but in behaviors and acting, no.

The way his father dressed, No share cropper there. The usual b.s.

Her voice is similar to munica belluchi.

An excellent biography! Watching it you get know & understand her somewhat. I'ts hard not to admire her strength of character. I admire her for fleeing the clutching control of the studio system who virtually owned the lives of the performers in those days. Heartwarming that people had good words to say about & that she remained good friends with Frank Sinatra after their tumoultous marraige. Lastly,she chose to be buried with her family in North Carolina instead of some famous Hollywood site.

An interesting anecdote: Ava was a huge fan of Bette Davis and happened to meet her by chance in a hotel in Madrid. "miss Davis, I'm Ava Gardner and I'm a big fan ot yours" - to which (to the delight of Ava) "Of course you are, my dear, of course you are" and she swept upstairs. "I just loved her looks" Ava once quipped

Представляю: АВА ГАРДНЕР !!!

She was a very handsome man

Not just breathtaking, but a very good actress. There's no one to compare with her.

Elizabeth Taylor said Ava was the most beautiful woman in Hollywood. John

I never thought her photogenic. I guess you had to be there. Artie Shaw was a true putz. He married glamor girls, then tried to change them,

Natural beauty. Tragic life. It is funny though when people think that the stars of yesteryear were saints and angels and compare them to todays stars. Ava drank heavily, Marilyn was a mess in all sorts of ways, Frank Sinatra was not a good person, John Wayne was racists, Judy Garland was an addict, a lot of those actors back then were just as bad as today.

But Mickey Rooney was a midget. Ava Gardner was the most beautiful woman on earth. Why did she marry a midget?

She liked the D, that's for sure.

She was an intelligent person so moulding herself to what was required to be approved was easy. Whilst her feelings about herself was low, She was intuitively clever, and very much her own person.

She definitely had little trouble in dismissing the whole Hollywood narrative.

Kendra is beautiful, too.

People here comment on how she lost her looks because of drink and smoke, these people must be under 50 because we all age, we all loose our looks, some of us are lucky to have had the looks, but nobody looks young after 50 , whether you drink, smoke, do drugs, makes no difference. We have an internal clock that works on its own, we can't stop it, it takes us from fetus to baby, to child, to adult, to old person and eventually to death....there is nothing anyone of us can do...so enjoy your life ...if you don't die young, you will also loose your looks...

Well presented. I don't think Sinatra paid for the funeral but he did pay substantial medical bills for her since she was quite ill for several years before she died.  She probably regretted having ever taken up smoking!

Topp femme fatale ♥️ i got into watching classics because of Ava ive seen her pics on Pinterest I didnt even know her name 😂then booom I cant get her out of my head. I wasn't even born yet when she died. But damn classic Hollywood actresses are somethin else 👌

This is one of the best bios of Ava I have seen. I adored her still do. A special woman uniquely her own. Authentic.

Why is it that all these documentaries about Ava Gardner fail completely to mention her role in On The Beach?

People appear to have missed a part of her life when the aircraft carrying her to Singapore in the early fifties, to make the Premier film, The Barefooted Contessa had to land at RAF Butterworth, Malaya during the monsoon season.. She was accommodated in the Married Families quarters with my boss and his wife. A fantastic experience.

She was so FUCKING BEAUTIEUL. I mean BEAUTIFUL.

О ней страсти ещё долго не утихнут,в нее досих пор влюбляются и это будет продолжаться долго!!!

I believe she got so many abortions(7-8) for fear the baby may reveal her true ancestry...if it didn't look totally white.

George C. Scott was brutal towards her, breaking ribs ,shoulders etc. I'm so glad that her assistant told Frank Sinatra and he sent some men to put the fear of God into him. I can never watch a George C. Scott movie again. He could have killed her. She deserved someone that just loved her, which she really deserved.

Ava Gardner was a very beautiful talented actress. My very favorite actress. It's too bad that she never had a chance for a happy marriage with children. I would love to have her fried chicken recipe, it was supposed to be great. She did have many good friends and admired by many. When she died Gregory Peck adopted her dog. RIP Ava you were better than you thought.

My mum modelled her style after Ava Gardner.

Ava Gardner and Angelina Jolie are the most magnetic women in Hollywood history.

The Nerd commentator disturbs me

THERE IS NOONE GREATER IN LIFE THAN CHRISTIAN ANDERS

They dont make women like that any more.

Кто не видел фильм " На берегу"1959г. Обязательно посмотрите.Две звёзды Ава Гарднер и Грегори Пек захватывающе сыграли свои роли,там несколько душераздирающих сцен.Талант режиссера и актеров!

A real beauty 🌹🦋🦋🦋

The girl narrator is absolutely gorgeous

Am pleased to know who she is .... all my life people said I’m her twin 😂😂😂

2.12 the father is impeccably dressed with quality clothing, don't like like no sharecropper to me.

Like Elizabeth Taylor, one of a kind and impossibly gorgeous. 🤗❤️

Definitely one of the top 10 series women to ever live. Lily Munster was rec hot too

One and only Ava.
RIP Ava , our own Barefoot Contessa.

I just learned there’s an Ava Gardner museum in Smithfield NC. So cool

I saw her first movie, The Killers, with Burt Lancaster, my favorite male star.
