Rita Hayworth gets Blondie all worked up!
by cgvsluis β€’ 2022-02-04
6/10

"This is my second Blondie film to see and it involved some Classic Blondie topics: The budget, shopping and jealousy! I was watching along and this gorgeous woman enters the scene and my first thought is, "she's beautiful!"...It turns out it is a young Rita Hayworth! But the person who really steals the show is the kid who plays Alvin! Not only is he a ham but charismatic as all get out! Probably a watch and delete, but fun while it lasted...."
