Lana Turner: 10 Essential Films

"Turner's off-screen life would overshadow her on-screen one. Her father was murdered when she was 9 years old (they never found his killer). She had 8 marriages to 7 husbands. One of Turner's boyfriends, Johnny Stompanato, was killed by her teenage daughter Cheryl, in an attempt to save her mother from his violent rage. Turner's acting prowess was never valued particularly highly – for the most part, it still isn't – and her personal travails added to the consensus that she was frivolous through and through; not worth respect as either a person or as an actor.
The consensus was wrong. For her centenary, here are 10 films that prove that Lana Turner was well worth taking seriously."
