Featured Actor/Actress
Top 10 Ava Gardner Films (Coming Soon)
Ava Gardner was simply one of the most beautiful women to ever appear on a movie screen. She was much more than just a pretty face, however, she was a talented actress. From her breakout role in The Killers ('46) through her last great performance in Night of the Iguana ('64), Gardner personified Hollywood glamour. She appeared opposite some of the greatest actors in Hollywood history, but was never overshadowed & quite often overshadowed bigger male stars. She was also strong, outspoken & always her own person.

About Me:
I've loved movies for as long as I can remember. For the past 20 years, I've worked for several of the major studios, including MGM, Warner Bros. & 20th Century Fox in their Home Entertainment divisions. The 1930's is my favorite decade for movies and I'm really partial to pre-code & Film Noir.
