Reseña del editor:

Considered the most beautiful woman in the world for an entire epoch, Ava Gardner has inspired the dreams of movie goers for generations. Retracing the artistic and private life of a beautiful, charismatic, and exceptional movie queen, this splendidly illustrated biography draws fascinating and hitherto unexplored parallels between Ava Gardner’s personal life and her screen roles. The accounts of each of Ava’s filmsincluding cast, credits, and a brief synopsisare accompanied by a rich selection of private and public black-and-white photos. More than the story of a woman, this is the story of a myth that sheds new light on an enigmatic, enchanting movie legend. Her fascinating story is brought to life through Gilles Dagneau’s sharp, psychological study and the sumptuous photography.
