Rita Hayworth Cycles Around The Beverly Hills Hotel
The early days of Hollywood set a strict standard for its female actors, which would ensure that they would be cast into various leading films. Carmen Cansino was one woman who changed both her name and appearance to seem more traditionally ‘American’ by having her heir thinned and changing her name to Rita Hayworth. Director George Cukor, who spotted Cansino among the cast of Susan and God, realized that this was an actress that was destined for greatness, even before her physical transformation.
