Welcome Home Rita - 1952 Photo
Right now, this photograph is very rare and very few of these photos around and she is on the Columbia Studios lot and getting ready for her shooting of
Affair in Trinidad Movie of where she and Glenn Ford is starring in. It was a great kick in the arm for Columbia Pictures and something that Hollywood was missing for 4 long years after her bittersweet divorce from Prince Aly Khan that she had to go through two separate divorce proceedings one in 1952 and another one in 1953.
She wasn't herself in this movie and many of her associates in Affair in Trinidad and her close friend Glenn Ford noticed that too. That's why she wanted to work to keep her mind off of it and start getting her career on track in the 50's of where she did eight movies in 10 years. She wanted to do more but Columbia Pictures worried that she will be overworked and all.
I just wanted to share that.
