| • | "There is a reason actors do or do not smoke in a movie. In real life both Ava Gardner and Ingrid Bergman were chain smokers. Yet Ava Gardner in the famous scene in the [Barefoot Contessa, The (1954)] pointedly refused to smoke, even though virtually every character did, and Ingrid Bergman never smoked in Casablanca (1943). The Barefoot Contessa was apparently loosely based on Howard Hughes and Rita Hayworth. The Howard Hughes character was a heavy smoker in the Barefoot Contessa, but in real life Hughes surrounded himself with non-smoking Mormons. Rita Hayworth was a heavy smoker. So much for art imitating life.", Winnipeg Sun, Feb. 28, '05
