The Lady from Shanghai
Welles cast his wife Rita Hayworth as Elsa and caused controversy when he instructed her to cut her long red hair and bleach it blonde for the role. "Orson was trying something new with me, but Harry Cohn wanted The Image—The Image he was gonna make me 'til I was 90," Rita Hayworth recalled. ""The Lady from Shanghai" was a very good picture. So what does Harry Cohn say when he sees it? 'He's "ruined" you—he cut your hair off!'"
