Ava & Her Guys

Ava Gardner was one of the Hollywood's great beauties; "a goddess," as described by band leader Artie Shaw, her second husband. She even played a goddess in ONE TOUCH OF VENUS.The daughter of a North Carolina tobacco share-cropper, she was adored and, at times, scorned by her fans. Her many film credits include such classics as THE KILLERS, SHOW BOAT, THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO, MOGAMBO and THE BAREFOOT CONTESSA.

Scott, who has been stalking her.Her efforts to reach third husband and the "great love" of her life, Frank Sinatra, for help have failed. Now, with a drink in her hand, Ava revisits the life choices she's made, as well as her relationships with Sinatra, Shaw, first husband Mickey Rooney, billionaire Howard Hughes and other men, that have brought her to this fragile moment.1 woman; 3 men; single set.
