Ursula Andress: Movies
built 635 days ago
Ursula in London's Hyde Park Ursula Andress remains an icon, and is one of the great classical beauties of the twentieth century, firmly in the pantheon of awe-inspiring faces alongside Marlene Dietrich, Maureen O'Hara and Ava Gardner. However, as far as working in the movies is concerned, she should be seen as the opposite of Claudia Cardinale. Unlike Cardinale, Ursula Andress has almost no films which stand the test of time, and unlike Cardinale she diminished her box office potency by disrobing in both magazines and movies.
The bathing suit, which Ursula Andress wore in the famous scene on the beach in the movie Dr. No, was sold for $61,500. The suit was made from Ursula's bra and was decorated with ivory.

After this her burst of super-celebrity, Andress settled into a series of increasingly humdrum films. During the making of 1981's Clash of the Titans, she linked up with the film's much younger leading man Harry Hamlin, who became the father of her child. Although Andress continued to make movies in the 1980s and '90s, she remained what she was in 1962: a stunning beauty of modest talents.
All the evidence suggests that Ursula simply did not take her film career seriously, and felt that other things were far more important. No-one can criticise her for that, but it does mean that the movies were denied a great star, who might have done work that lived on for decades or more.
