| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | (on why she came out of retirement to appear on a soap opera) For the loot, honey, for the loot. |
| 2 | [on why she had an abortion during her marriage to Frank Sinatra] We couldn't even take care of ourselves. How were we going to take care of a baby? |
| 3 | [on her role in The Bible: In the Beginning... (1966)] I've never thought of myself as right for this type of part. But John [John Huston] said he had faith that I could do it. Now I am glad I listened to him. Sarah is a wonderful role. She is a selfless woman who gives her maid servant Hagar to her husband when she herself cannot give Abraham a son. Later she is blessed by God and gives birth to a son, at 90. This is one of the most beautiful love stories in the Bible. |
| 4 | God knows I've got so many frailties myself, I ought to be able to understand and forgive them in others. But I don't. |
| 5 | [on her first screen test] There wasn't a thing that I could do. I couldn't act--I was the first to be eliminated in high school plays. I had no training whatsoever. I was just a pretty little girl. But I loved the idea, because I loved movies. |
| 6 | I really had very little to contribute, so I played a lot of hatcheck girls, and did mob scenes, extra scenes, dancing scenes, just to have the experience of being on a set. I spent years at that. If the studio wanted a photograph to advertise a film they'd say, 'Who is it that has a good pair of legs and a good pair of breasts and is pretty and not working?' And it was always Ava because she was never working. |
| 7 | [on her career] Christ, what did I ever do worth talking about? Every time I tried to act, they stepped on me. That's why it's such a goddamn shame, I've been a movie star for 25 years and I've got nothing, nothing, to show for it. |
| 8 | [when asked if her time at MGM had been any fun at all] Christ, after 17 years of slavery, you can ask that question? I hated it, honey. I mean, I'm not exactly stupid or without feeling, and they tried to sell me like a prize hog. |
| 9 | I can't bear to face a camera. But I never brought anything to this business and I have no respect for acting. Maybe if I had learned something it would be different. But I never did anything to be proud of. |
| 10 | [on Robert Taylor] I knew him as a warm, generous, intelligent human being. Our love affair lasted three, maybe four months. A magical little interlude. I've never forgotten those few hidden months. I think Bob, despite all his efforts, couldn't break the mold of the beautiful lover. The film world remembers him that way, and I have to say that I do, too. |
| 11 | Although no one believes me, I have always been a country girl and still have a country girl's values. |
| 12 | Maybe I just didn't have the temperament for stardom. I'll never forget seeing Bette Davis at the Hilton in Madrid. I went up to her and said, "Miss Davis, I'm Ava Gardner and I'm a great fan of yours." And do you know, she behaved exactly as I wanted her to behave. "Of course you are, my dear," she said. "Of course you are." And she swept on. Now that's a star. |
| 13 | What I'd really like to say about stardom is that it gave me everything I never wanted. |
| 14 | [in 1985, on why she came out of retirement to appear on a prime-time soap opera] For the loot, honey, for the loot. |
| 15 | I wish to live until 150 years old but the day I die, I wish it to be with a cigarette in one hand and a glass of whiskey in the other. |
| 16 | I made it as a star dressed, and if it ain't dressed, I don't want it. |
| 17 | What's the point? My face, shall we say, looks lived in. |
| 18 | Everybody kisses everybody else in this crummy business all the time. It's the kissiest business in the world. |
| 19 | After my screen test, the director clapped his hands gleefully and yelled, "She can't talk! She can't act! She's sensational!" |
| 20 | Deep down, I'm pretty superficial. |
| 21 | I couldn't imagine a better place [Melbourne, Australia] for making a film on the end of the world. |
| 22 | Nobody ever called it an intellectual profession. |
| 23 | I haven't taken an overdose of sleeping pills and called my agent. I haven't been in jail, and I don't go running to the psychiatrist every two minutes. That's something of an accomplishment these days. |
| 24 | I must have seen more sunrises than any other actress in the history of Hollywood. |
| 25 | I don't understand people who like to work and talk about it like it was some sort of goddamn duty. Doing nothing feels like floating on warm water to me. Delightful, perfect. |
| 26 | When I lose my temper, honey, you can't find it any place. |
| 27 | I have only one rule in acting -- trust the director and give him heart and soul. |
| 28 | All I ever got out of any of my marriages was the two years Artie Shaw financed on an analyst's couch. |
| # | Fact |
|---|---|
| 1 | Underwent two abortions during her marriage to Frank Sinatra. |
| 2 | She and Gregory Walcott both came from the same hometown. |
| 3 | When he was married to her, Artie Shaw paid tribute to her home town by making an instrumental record with his Gramercy Five (a small group within his big band) called "The Grabtown Grapple.". |
| 4 | Louis B. Mayer once said of her, "She can't talk, she can't act, she's terrific". |
| 5 | Aunt of Billy Grimes. |
| 6 | Charlton Heston revealed that Gardner behaved badly during the troubled shoot of 55 Days at Peking (1963) in his autobiography "In the Arena". For example, she stopped the filming when a Chinese extra took her picture without permission. Heston also stated that her character was killed off to keep the producers and director from having to deal with her anymore. |
| 7 | London neighbor and close friend of Charles Gray. |
| 8 | She was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 1560 Vine Street in Hollywood, California on February 8, 1960. |
| 9 | She underwent a hysterectomy in 1968 from worries about contracting uterine cancer, the disease that had taken her mother's life. |
| 10 | She and Robert Taylor had a brief love affair during the filming of The Bribe (1949). |
| 11 | Frank Sinatra bought her a puppy for her birthday during their courtship, a Corgi she named Rags. For the rest of her life she always had a Corgi with her. After Rags died, she had Cara and then Morgan. |
| 12 | When her first husband, Mickey Rooney, brought his hugely successful musical "Sugar Babies" to London in the late 1980s, Gardner confessed to him that she had contemplated suicide after being left partially paralyzed by two strokes in 1986. |
| 13 | She suffered from a severe case of emphysema in her later life, and she could not travel far without an oxygen tank for breathing. |
| 14 | In Italy, most of her films were dubbed by Rosetta Calavetta. She was occasionally dubbed by Dhia Cristiani, Lidia Simoneschi and Andreina Pagnani. |
| 15 | Biography in: "The Scribner Encyclopedia of American Lives." Volume Two, 1986-1990, pages 319-321. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1999. |
| 16 | Ava's paternal great-grandparents, William Gardner and Cynthia Eliza Batts, were also the paternal great-great-great-great-grandparents of actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead. This makes Ava and Mary Elizbaeth second cousins, three times removed. |
| 17 | Her The Angel Wore Red (1960) co-star Dirk Bogarde nicknamed her "Snowdrop" because, he said, anything less likely was difficult to imagine. |
| 18 | Her three husbands were eventually married to a total of 20 brides between them. |
| 19 | The production designer John Hawkesworth, an Englishman who was the set designer of her movie Pandora and the Flying Dutchman (1951), said about Gardner that she "could eat twice as much as anyone, and drink three times as much.". |
| 20 | An Australian reporter found that Gardner was quite adept at foul language, and her swearing was "like a sailor and a truck driver were having a competition." She threw a glass of champagne at the reporter, who said that at the moment she did so "the only thing I could think was how bloody gorgeous the woman was.". |
| 21 | While living in Spain, became a good friend of the writer Ernest Hemingway, whom she and his other friends called "Papa". Both of then were fans of bullfighting. |
| 22 | During her final years living in London, she became the dinner companion of director Michael Winner. |
| 23 | Had appeared in three films based on Ernest Hemingway stories: The Sun Also Rises (1957), The Snows of Kilimanjaro (1952) and The Killers (1946). |
| 24 | Frank Sinatra nicknamed her "Angel". |
| 25 | Is portrayed by Deborah Kara Unger in The Rat Pack (1998), by Christine Andreas in Love and Betrayal: The Mia Farrow Story (1995), Jon Mack in Introducing Dorothy Dandridge (1999), and by Kate Beckinsale in The Aviator (2004). |
| 26 | Although she often gave the name of her North Carolina hometown as Grabtown, and at other times as Smithfield, the township is a crossroads community named Brogden. "Grabtown" is a nickname given to it by locals. Smithfield is a larger town seven miles west. |
| 27 | Chosen by the American Film Institute as one of the greatest American female screen legends (Number 25). |
| 28 | Once named "The World's Most Beautiful Animal" (in a 1950s publicity campaign). |
| 29 | Part of On the Beach (1959) was filmed in Berwick, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia. Ava had a street - on that was being developed at the time - named for her. Its name is "Gardner Street". |
| 30 | During the first two years of her marriage to Frank Sinatra, he was at the lowest point of his career. She often had to lend him money so he could buy presents for his children. He went broke in 1951, and Gardner had to pay for plane tickets for him so that he could go with her to Africa, where she was shooting Mogambo (1953). This all changed after he won his Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his performance in the film From Here to Eternity (1953). |
| 31 | A statue of her from The Barefoot Contessa (1954) was given to Frank Sinatra as a gift. He kept it in his backyard garden well after their divorce. When he married Barbara Marx, she forced him to get rid of it. |
| 32 | When shooting Earthquake (1974), she surprised director Mark Robson by insisting that she do her own stuntwork, which included dodging blocks of concrete and heavy steel pipes. |
| 33 | Was a good friend of Kathryn Grayson and Lena Horne, despite the fact that Ava and Lena both competed for the part of Julie LaVerne in Show Boat (1951). |
| 34 | Ex-daughter-in-law of Joe Yule (Mickey Rooney's father). |
| 35 | Once met J.R.R. Tolkien and neither knew why the other was famous. |
| 36 | After her death in 1990, Ava's longtime housekeeper, Carmen Vargas, and her dog, a Welsh Corgi named Morgan, were taken in by her former co-star Gregory Peck. |
| 37 | She spent her final years as a recluse in her London apartment -- her only companions were her longtime housekeeper Carmen Vargas and her beloved Welsh Corgi, Morgan. Two strokes in 1986 left her partially paralyzed and bedridden. Although Gardner could easily afford her medical expenses, Frank Sinatra wanted to pay for her to visit a specialist in the United States, and she allowed him to make the arrangements for a medically-staffed private plane. Her last words (to her housekeeper Carmen), were, "I'm so tired", before she died of pneumonia at age 67. Vargas took her body home to her native North Carolina for private burial. None of her ex-husbands attended. |
| 38 | There is an Ava Gardner Museum of memorabilia in Smithfield, North Carolina. |
| 39 | She was continuously under contract at MGM, 1941-1958. |
| 40 | In a promotion for The Little Hut (1957), a small island in Fiji was renamed Ava Ava and leased to a contest winner. |
| 41 | Flamenco became one of Ava's favorite pastimes after she learned it for The Barefoot Contessa (1954); increasingly proficient and needing little sleep, she often danced all night. |
| 42 | She sang in her own voice for The Killers (1946) but in all MGM films her singing voice was dubbed (much to her disgust). |
| 43 | Her early education was sketchy; by 1945, she had read two books, the Bible and "Gone with the Wind." In later life, she more than made up for this lack by continual self-education. |
| 44 | The youngest of 7 children. Her older siblings were Raymond, Melvin ("Jack"), Beatrice ("Bappie"), Elsie Mae, Inez, and Myra. |
| 45 | She was the daughter of Mary Elizabeth (Baker) and Jonas Bailey Gardner. Her father was a tobacco farmer who died of bronchitis in 1935. Ava had British/English ancestry. She is sometimes cited as having had Native American ancestry, but this ancestry has never been verified/documented. |
| 46 | Her singing voice in Show Boat (1951) was dubbed by Annette Warren, although her voice is left in on the soundtrack album. |
| 47 | Chosen by Empire magazine as one of the 100 Sexiest Stars in film history (#68). [1995] |
