Gilda (1946)
Rita Hayworth practically invented the character of the femme fatale - and she was never more convincing as a temptress than in Gilda, in which she stars as the wife of a dodgy casino owner (George Macready) in Buenos Aires. More than $50,000 were allocated for Hayworth’s wardrobe during filming - and costumer Jean Louis put it to good use in the form of diaphanous lace slips; plunging sequined dresses; and a gown inspired by the one worn in John Singer Sargent’s ‘Portrait of Madame X’.

Over the course of protagonist Travis Henderson’s (Harry Dean Stanton) journeys between Texas and California, every quintessentially American landscape gets a cameo - from diners illuminated by neon signs to the wilds of the Southwestern desert.
