Ava Gardner - gorgeous in "Pandora and the Flying Dutchman"

 


PICTURESQUE Spain got more attention than it's had since the Spanish Civil War when one act of the front page romance of Ava Gardner and Frank Sinatra was played there. Ava was on location for "Pandora And The Flying Dutchman" when Frank, estranged from his wife, followed her to Spain. In an effort to throw a smoke screen over the Gardner-Sinatra relations, a local matador was mixed into the plot and publicized as Ava's real interest. This ruse failed. Frank and Ava, despite denials, seemed more in love than ever.
