A mini-biography on the life of Ava Gardner.
Ava Gardner's performance in "The Killers" made her an instant star. Gardner's off-screen life was often as dramatic as the roles she played, with marriages to Mickey Rooney, Artie Shaw and Frank Sinatra.

Here's Ava's own vocal track - she was dubbed by Annette Warren in the released film.
From "Ava: My Story"
"Now, I can sing. I do not expect to be taken for Maria Callas, Ella Fitzgerald, or Lena Home, but I can carry a tune well enough for the likes of Artie Shaw to feel safe offering to put me in front of his orchestra. But since Julie's two songs, "Bill" and "Can't Help Loving That Man," are so beloved by everyone, I decided to work as hard as I could to fit the bill. I even found this marvelous teacher, who'd worked with both Lena and Dorothy Dandridge, and we slaved away for several weeks and produced a test record of those two songs.
Then, rather nervously, I took my life into my hands and gave the record to Arthur Freed himself, God Almighty of musical productions. I don't think the son of a bitch ever even listened to it He just put it on a shelf and delivered the usual studio ultimatum: "Now, listen, Ava, you can't sing and you're among professional singers." So that settled that one.
Or did it? Because the singer they'd chosen to dub my singing had a high, rather tiny voice, totally inappropriate when it was paired with my own speaking voice. The studio spent thousands and thousands of dollars and used the full MGM orchestra trying to get this poor girl right. I mean, there was nothing wrong with her in the first place, except for the obvious fact that she wasn't me.
Finally, they got Annette Warren, this gal who used to do a lot of my singing off-screen, and they substituted her voice for mine. So my Southern twang suddenly stops talking and her soprano starts singing - hell, what a mess.
When it came to the album version of the movie, things got even worse. Being a great fan of Lena's, I had copied her phrasing, note for note, on my test record. So they took my record imitating Lena and put earphones on her so she could sing the songs copying me copying her.
But Metro soon found out that they couldn't legally release the album with my name and image, as they called it, without my voice being part of the package. So then I used earphones to try to record my voice over her voice, which had been recorded over my voice imitating her. I did it note for note, they wiped Lena's voice off the album, and the record was a success. That's the way they worked in those days. And I still get goddamn royalties on the thing!"
From Hugh Fordin's book "The World Of Entertainment!":
Ava had made up her mind to sing her two numbers herself: no dubbing. Both songs, Can't Help Lovin' That Man" and "Bill," not only require a voice but vocal skill of a high degree. Coaching her, Fdens knew from the very start that his efforts were in vain. Accompanying her at the piano, he recorded a test which turned out to be pale, thin and tentative. He decided to audition voice doubles: Marni Nixon, Anita Ellis, Carole Richards and Annette Warren. He found Warren's singing voice best suited as a match for Gardner's speaking voice.
When it came to the prerecordings Gardner still insisted on singing the songs herself. As a precaution a set of tracks was also made by Warren.
After a couple of weeks of screening the two scenes for a number of in- and outsiders, Annette Warren was called back to rerecord the songs, now to Gardner's lip-synch. What ensued until after the production had closed was a kind of a parlor game. Warren's tracks were in; Warren's tracks were out. Gardner's tracks were in, and then they were out; and so on and so forth, depending on the comment of whoever had seen the sequences last.
Before starting the dubbing of the picture, vocal director Lela Simone asked music director Roger Edens "And who is singing?" The answer was a not very enthusiasic: "Ava."
The picture was previewed on March 22, 1951. The one change that was made afterward was that Gardner's voice was out and Warren's voice was in. At the second preview on April 3, the change had a very noticeable and positive effect on the audience.
When Simone asked and Jesse Kaye discussed the forthcoming soundtrack album he felt that for reasons of exploitation and sale Ava Gardner's name on the cover would be an added plus. Simone took great pains in the dubbing of Gardner's tracks, backing up her voice with the accompmaniments to make her sound more palatable.
Show Boat cost $2,295,429 and grossed in excess of $8,650,000.

Tomorrow is December 24th, Ava Lavinia Gardner's birthday. No one looked better(!) in a one-strap (or even two) black gown as the first third of this video show her at her best in The Killers and The Bribe. Ava Gardner was the ultimate, exotic-looking femme fatale, often caught in a love triangle as in The Barefoot Countessa, Bhowani Junction or Mogambo. She had a sexy voice which was sadly often dubbed for singing. (Supposedly she was dubbed here even at the beginning of the song when she lights up but it seems so vintage Ava). She was her own person who didn't mind going barefoot in the grass, making snappy remarks about her sex life, using colorful language or romancing Mickey Rooney or Robert Taylor. The love of her life was Frank Sinatra who sings the middle song "I'm a Fool to Want You" when he and Ava split.
Movies included: The Bribe, The Killers, Mogambo, Bhowani Junction, The Barefoot Contessa, On the Beach, and Knights of the Round Table. Songs include a gorgeous version of Once Upon a TIme in the West (with Ennio Morricone and YoYo Ma) and the Theme from Marco Polo (last song, by Ennio Morricone) which I feel really fits the femme fatale, fragile but dangerous woman she often played. The crescendo from Marco Polo was timed to her scene in The Barefoot Contessa since I felt that was perfect for her power over men (the scene on the boat). I choose to focus on the limelight in The Killers and the Bribe in the first third, gorgeous stills of Ava in the middle when Frank sings his heart out. And Ava's exotic looks in color in the last third.
This video is especially for Claudia (who always has good advice, even on this video), my best friend here! And Dina who always wants me to do an Ava tribute.

Ava Gardner's North Carolina Highway Historical Marker was awarded on the 25th anniversary of her death. It was dedicated on November 18, 2015 by Frank Sinatra, Jr. at the Carolina Theatre of Durham in a private ceremony following his performance of "Sinatra Sings Sinatra." During his speech, Mr. Sinatra spoke for the first time publicly about his experience with Ava in never-before-revealed story which puts much conjecture about Ava and Frank to rest, saying that she was "a great star and honest person." He also talks about how she was "absolutely maligned" and that she was misunderstood by those who didn't even know her. He explains how she understood his own situation all too well as they spent time together one night in Spain in 1964. His words about the true Ava Gardner are very touching and one of the best memories we could hope to hear about Ava. Please join us to hear about Ava in the words of Mr. Sinatra.
The marker was unveiled in a public ceremony near Ava's gravesite at Sunset Memorial Park in Smithfield, North Carolina by Ava's family members and Ava's closest companion Carmen Vargas on November 20, 2015.
Special thanks to everyone who made this possible, and especially to Mr. Sinatra and Ms. Vargas.

Ava Lavinia Gardner (December 24, 1922 – January 25, 1990) was an American actress.
She was signed to a contract by MGM Studios in 1941 and appeared mainly in small roles until she drew attention with her performance in The Killers (1946). She became one of Hollywood's leading actresses, considered one of the most beautiful women of her day. She was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her work in Mogambo (1953).
She appeared in several high-profile films from the 1950s to 1970s, including The Hucksters (1947), Show Boat (1951), The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952), The Barefoot Contessa (1954), Bhowani Junction (1956), On the Beach (1959), Seven Days in May (1964), The Night of the Iguana (1964), The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean (1972), Earthquake (1974), and The Cassandra Crossing (1976). Gardner continued to act regularly until 1986, four years before her death from pneumonia, at age 67, in 1990.
She is listed 25th among the American Film Institute's Greatest female stars.

Introducing Dorothy Dandridge (1999)
Actors: Clement von Franckenstein (actor), Loretta Devine (actress), Raphael Sbarge (actor), William Atherton (actor), Joanne Baron (actress), Halle Berry (actress), Brent Spiner (actor), D.B. Sweeney (actor), Larry Poindexter (actor), Dave Mallow (actor), Klaus Maria Brandauer (actor), Guy Torry (actor), Obba Babatundé (actor), Elmer Bernstein (composer), Halle Berry (producer),
Plot: This biography of Dorothy Dandridge follows her career through early days on the club circuit with her sister to her turn in movies, including becoming the first black actress to win a Best Actress Nomination in 1954 for "Carmen Jones", to her final demise to prescription drugs, which was debated whether it was suicide or accidental. Brent Spiner plays her faithful manager who stood beside her through all of the roller coaster of her career. The film also examines her love affair with director Otto Preminger, which is shown to have probably initially helped her career, but later probably led her to some wrong decisions. The film also examines 50's racism as the black star is not permitted to use white bathrooms or the Vegas pool. In the first situation, she was given a bathroom cup to pee in. In the second situation, the hotel drained the pool and scrubbed it after she dared put her foot in the water.

Quotes:
Harold Nicholas: Dottie, it's a whole different ballgame over there! They don't know the difference between black and white, and when they do, it's because they're treating us better than they treat their own!::Dorothy Dandridge: I can't go to Paris! Lynn is going to need special care!::Harold Nicholas: Then get special care.::Dorothy Dandridge: Not in an institution!::Harold Nicholas: Dottie, she doesn't even know we're here.::Dorothy Dandridge: I'm her mother.

And maybe that's all I'm supposed to be.Earl Mills: [notices thick makeup on Dorothy's face] What happened to your face?::Dorothy Dandridge: Guess I wasn't black enough to lead the tribe.
Vivian Dandridge: You think because you've become a big film star by shaking your tail, people aren't going to treat you like you're colored? Well, I'm something too! I'm something too! I'm more than Dorothy Dandridge's *big sister*! Didn't you ever notice that? Didn't you?
Dorothy Dandridge: Have you seen my man? That Carmen Jones snatched him from me and I'm all lost over what to do about it. Can't decide. If it's better I follow him up to the Windy City, or should I wait? Wait for him to come back to his happy-hearted home? Tell me what to do... I'm Cindy Lou.::Otto Preminger: The hell you are.
Dorothy Dandridge: Harold says I'm the most beautiful girl in the world.::Geri Nicholas: I'd rather be smart than beautiful.::Dorothy Dandridge: Well, I'd rather be beautiful.::Geri Nicholas: Beauty fades.

Dorothy Dandridge: Have you ever caught sight of yourself by accident and you see yourself from the outside? That's who you really are.
Mocambo Emcee: Ladies and gentlemen, the delicious... the divine... the delightful... Dorothy Danridge!
Dorothy Dandridge: [angrily] Tonight, I'll take my bows and exit stage rear, go through the kitchen, past the casino, around the pool, which I'm apparently too dirty to swim in, up the service elevator, into my luxurious penthouse, sip my complimentary champagne, and pee in a brand new Dixie cup!::Earl Mills: I take that walk with you every night, you know.::Dorothy Dandridge: But the difference is, Earl, you don't HAVE to!
Dorothy Dandridge: [after Otto attends the premiere of "Carmen Jones" with his wife] How dare you parade her in front of me.::Otto Preminger: I didn't know she was coming.::Dorothy Dandridge: It was *my* night, Otto! You won't be seen with me in public, but then I have to watch you traipse around with her!::Otto Preminger: She's my wife.::Dorothy Dandridge: Tell her to leave. You have an understanding, remember? She openly makes the rounds with another man, Otto, and you don't complain about it! So, why couldn't you spend the evening with me?

Show Boat - Ava Gardner 's own voice -- Bill
Here's Ava's own vocal track - she was dubbed by Annette Warren in the released film. From "Ava: My Story" "Now, I can sing. I do not expect to be taken for Maria Callas, Ella Fitzgerald, or Lena Home, but I can carry a tune well enough for the likes of Artie Shaw to feel safe offering to put me in front of his orchestra. But since Julie's two songs, "Bill" and "Can't Help Loving That Man," are so beloved by everyone, I decided to work as hard as I could to fit the bill. I even found this marvelous teacher, who'd worked with both Lena and Dorothy Dandridge, and we slaved away for several weeks and produced a test record of those two songs. Then, rather nervously, I took my life into my hands and gave the record to Arthur Freed himself, God Almighty of musical productions. I don't think ... -
Ava Gardner: The Femme Fatale
Tomorrow is December 24th, Ava Lavinia Gardner's birthday. No one looked better(!) in a one-strap (or even two) black gown as the first third of this video show her at her best in The Killers and The Bribe. Ava Gardner was the ultimate, exotic-looking femme fatale, often caught in a love triangle as in The Barefoot Countessa, Bhowani Junction or Mogambo. She had a sexy voice which was sadly often dubbed for singing. (Supposedly she was dubbed here even at the beginning of the song when she lights up but it seems so vintage Ava). She was her own person who didn't mind going barefoot in the grass, making snappy remarks about her sex life, using colorful language or romancing Mickey Rooney or Robert Taylor. The love of her life was Frank Sinatra who sings the middle song "I'm a Fool to Want Y... -

Ava Gardner Historical Marker Dedication Ceremony with Frank Sinatra, Jr. 11.18.2015
Ava Gardner's North Carolina Highway Historical Marker was awarded on the 25th anniversary of her death. It was dedicated on November 18, 2015 by Frank Sinatra, Jr. at the Carolina Theatre of Durham in a private ceremony following his performance of "Sinatra Sings Sinatra." During his speech, Mr. Sinatra spoke for the first time publicly about his experience with Ava in never-before-revealed story which puts much conjecture about Ava and Frank to rest, saying that she was "a great star and honest person." He also talks about how she was "absolutely maligned" and that she was misunderstood by those who didn't even know her. He explains how she understood his own situation all too well as they spent time together one night in Spain in 1964. His words about the true Ava Gardner are very touc...

Here's Ava's own vocal track - she was dubbed by Annette Warren in the released film.
From "Ava: My Story"
"Now, I can sing. I do not expect to be taken for Maria Callas, Ella Fitzgerald, or Lena Home, but I can carry a tune well enough for the likes of Artie Shaw to feel safe offering to put me in front of his orchestra. But since Julie's two songs, "Bill" and "Can't Help Loving That Man," are so beloved by everyone, I decided to work as hard as I could to fit the bill. I even found this marvelous teacher, who'd worked with both Lena and Dorothy Dandridge, and we slaved away for several weeks and produced a test record of those two songs.
Then, rather nervously, I took my life into my hands and gave the record to Arthur Freed himself, God Almighty of musical productions. I don't think the son of a bitch ever even listened to it He just put it on a shelf and delivered the usual studio ultimatum: "Now, listen, Ava, you can't sing and you're among professional singers." So that settled that one.
Or did it? Because the singer they'd chosen to dub my singing had a high, rather tiny voice, totally inappropriate when it was paired with my own speaking voice. The studio spent thousands and thousands of dollars and used the full MGM orchestra trying to get this poor girl right. I mean, there was nothing wrong with her in the first place, except for the obvious fact that she wasn't me.
Finally, they got Annette Warren, this gal who used to do a lot of my singing off-screen, and they substituted her voice for mine. So my Southern twang suddenly stops talking and her soprano starts singing - hell, what a mess.
When it came to the album version of the movie, things got even worse. Being a great fan of Lena's, I had copied her phrasing, note for note, on my test record. So they took my record imitating Lena and put earphones on her so she could sing the songs copying me copying her.
But Metro soon found out that they couldn't legally release the album with my name and image, as they called it, without my voice being part of the package. So then I used earphones to try to record my voice over her voice, which had been recorded over my voice imitating her. I did it note for note, they wiped Lena's voice off the album, and the record was a success. That's the way they worked in those days. And I still get goddamn royalties on the thing!"
From Hugh Fordin's book "The World Of Entertainment!":
Ava had made up her mind to sing her two numbers herself: no dubbing. Both songs, Can't Help Lovin' That Man" and "Bill," not only require a voice but vocal skill of a high degree. Coaching her, Fdens knew from the very start that his efforts were in vain. Accompanying her at the piano, he recorded a test which turned out to be pale, thin and tentative. He decided to audition voice doubles: Marni Nixon, Anita Ellis, Carole Richards and Annette Warren. He found Warren's singing voice best suited as a match for Gardner's speaking voice.
When it came to the prerecordings Gardner still insisted on singing the songs herself. As a precaution a set of tracks was also made by Warren.
After a couple of weeks of screening the two scenes for a number of in- and outsiders, Annette Warren was called back to rerecord the songs, now to Gardner's lip-synch. What ensued until after the production had closed was a kind of a parlor game. Warren's tracks were in; Warren's tracks were out. Gardner's tracks were in, and then they were out; and so on and so forth, depending on the comment of whoever had seen the sequences last.
Before starting the dubbing of the picture, vocal director Lela Simone asked music director Roger Edens "And who is singing?" The answer was a not very enthusiasic: "Ava."
The picture was previewed on March 22, 1951. The one change that was made afterward was that Gardner's voice was out and Warren's voice was in. At the second preview on April 3, the change had a very noticeable and positive effect on the audience.
When Simone asked and Jesse Kaye discussed the forthcoming soundtrack album he felt that for reasons of exploitation and sale Ava Gardner's name on the cover would be an added plus. Simone took great pains in the dubbing of Gardner's tracks, backing up her voice with the accompmaniments to make her sound more palatable.
Show Boat cost $2,295,429 and grossed in excess of $8,650,000.

Tomorrow is December 24th, Ava Lavinia Gardner's birthday. No one looked better(!) in a one-strap (or even two) black gown as the first third of this video show her at her best in The Killers and The Bribe. Ava Gardner was the ultimate, exotic-looking femme fatale, often caught in a love triangle as in The Barefoot Countessa, Bhowani Junction or Mogambo. She had a sexy voice which was sadly often dubbed for singing. (Supposedly she was dubbed here even at the beginning of the song when she lights up but it seems so vintage Ava). She was her own person who didn't mind going barefoot in the grass, making snappy remarks about her sex life, using colorful language or romancing Mickey Rooney or Robert Taylor. The love of her life was Frank Sinatra who sings the middle song "I'm a Fool to Want You" when he and Ava split.
Movies included: The Bribe, The Killers, Mogambo, Bhowani Junction, The Barefoot Contessa, On the Beach, and Knights of the Round Table. Songs include a gorgeous version of Once Upon a TIme in the West (with Ennio Morricone and YoYo Ma) and the Theme from Marco Polo (last song, by Ennio Morricone) which I feel really fits the femme fatale, fragile but dangerous woman she often played. The crescendo from Marco Polo was timed to her scene in The Barefoot Contessa since I felt that was perfect for her power over men (the scene on the boat). I choose to focus on the limelight in The Killers and the Bribe in the first third, gorgeous stills of Ava in the middle when Frank sings his heart out. And Ava's exotic looks in color in the last third.
This video is especially for Claudia (who always has good advice, even on this video), my best friend here! And Dina who always wants me to do an Ava tribute.

Ava Gardner's North Carolina Highway Historical Marker was awarded on the 25th anniversary of her death. It was dedicated on November 18, 2015 by Frank Sinatra, Jr. at the Carolina Theatre of Durham in a private ceremony following his performance of "Sinatra Sings Sinatra." During his speech, Mr. Sinatra spoke for the first time publicly about his experience with Ava in never-before-revealed story which puts much conjecture about Ava and Frank to rest, saying that she was "a great star and honest person." He also talks about how she was "absolutely maligned" and that she was misunderstood by those who didn't even know her. He explains how she understood his own situation all too well as they spent time together one night in Spain in 1964. His words about the true Ava Gardner are very touching and one of the best memories we could hope to hear about Ava. Please join us to hear about Ava in the words of Mr. Sinatra.
The marker was unveiled in a public ceremony near Ava's gravesite at Sunset Memorial Park in Smithfield, North Carolina by Ava's family members and Ava's closest companion Carmen Vargas on November 20, 2015.
Special thanks to everyone who made this possible, and especially to Mr. Sinatra and Ms. Vargas.

Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man
Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man
Fish got to swim, birds got to fly,
I got to love one man till I die.
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow,
Tell me I'm crazy, (maybe I know).
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
When he goes away,
Dat's a rainy day,
And when he comes back dat day is fine,
De sun will shine!
He kin come home as late as can be,
Home without him ain't no home to me,
Can't help lovin' dat man of mine.
