Starring Rita Hayworth in the "Loves of Carmen," was a stroke of genius. Filming it in technicolor was another flash of insight. The plot, the scenery and the music made a fine background.
Rita must have done some heavy thinking on her own because she collected a quarter of a million dollars for her artistic efforts. Certain of these efforts deserve comment: (1) Miss Hayworth can wear more clothes and still look under than any female this side of a Restoration book jacket. (2) She can get off a wall and into a man's arms in less time than it takes Leo Durocher to descend on a plate umpire. (3) Rita can achieve more in one glance than Mayor Curley in three terms. (4) She is the only actress in Hollywood who can boast of two relatives who are accomplished on the Spanish guitar, (These gentlemen are on display in the "Loves of Carmen.")
There was a plot in Carmen; it wasn't very good. Fortunately, Rita Hayworth was in nearly every scene, so nobody particularly noticed the story. As far as this department could determine, it concerned a series of affairs between Carmen and some well-born males.
