Yes, the psychological aspect is fascinating.
That response shows that Rita had a depth of character, and I'm not the least bit surprised. To be able to separate the two worlds of fame and make believe, with the reality of everyday life and struggle, very impressive indeed.

@HannahHowe

I think that it would be very hard to live up to an image, an ideal falsely created, so many actors of that era must have found that and struggled mentally, you would have to be very grounded not to lose your way in life.

@HannahHowe

Revealing the Hollywood veneer, a lifetimes work. There are so many stars of that era that would be wonderful to research. Sometimes their actual life stories were more incredible than the image created by the Hollywood Star system. 🙏

@HannahHowe

Really looking forward to reading both. Rita Hayworth had such a sad life in so many ways. Unlike the presented Hollywood dream image of so many Stars of that era. 🙏
