Rebellious Celluloid

a wonderfully bizarre love triangle

Under discussion:

Gilda  (1946)

A film-noir classic focused around a wonderfully bizarre love triangle between a gambler, his boss (a front for a Nazi cartel) and his boss' wife (who is also the gamblers ex-lover). On the surface Gilda is all about the strikingly beautiful Rita Hayworth, but if you can manage to detach your eyes from her hourglass figure and take a look under the hood you'll witness a strikingly strong story built on male self-loathing, misogyny and a fear of liberated female sexuality. Fans of The Shawshank Redemption will remember the famous Hayworth/Gilda poster image, you need to see this film if it's the last thing you do.
