Rita Deserved Better.

"Welles told Leaming how Hayworth flew into a rage after discovering that her picture had been affixed to the nuclear test bomb (named 'Gilda') detonated at Bikini Atoll. 'Rita almost went insane, she was so angry,' he said. “She was so shocked by it…She wanted to go to Washington to hold a press conference, but Harry Cohn wouldn’t let her because it would be unpatriotic.”
