Cover Girl (Columbia, 1944). One Sheet (27" X 41") Style A. Despite the star power of leading man Gene Kelly, this poster belongs to Rita Hayworth! In Cover Girl , she's Rusty Parker, a woman whose ambition is to become a Broadway star. To achieve her goal, she has to leave the small dinner theater where she works with her true love, Danny McGuire, played by Kelly. At the time she made this film, Hayworth was still primarily seen as a singing and dancing star. It wouldn't be long, however, before her talent for portraying femme fatales would become obvious in such classics as Gilda (1946), The Lady from Shanghai (1947), and Salome (1953). Charles Vidor was the director of record, but Gene Kelly had a large amount of creative input, and many credit his ideas for the film's enduring appeal. Rita Hayworth stars as a dancer and aspiring Broadway star who gets her big break when a wealthy theatrical producer stages a musical just for her, but her old boss and flame (Kelly) is threatened.
