Ava Gardner: Life Is Bigger Than the Movies (2017)
• June 9th, 2017 • 0h 51min
Documentary
Overview
A barefoot contessa, a screwed-up princess, an exquisite drunk, a bawdy aristocrat, a nightmare for puritanical America and the moguls of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Ava Gardner never stopped loving those she loved. She turned women green and made men sweat. And rejected with all her force the bulwark of normality.
