"Bad girls make good parts."
¿- Cleo Moore in 1953
Cleo Moore endured in a profession in which only the strong survive¿- not only because she overcame her rural Louisiana background, but because she drew her strength from it.
Raised in poverty, she moved to California to seek a better future. Cleo soon became known as 'Louisiana's Canary Blonde Bombshell' and reached her peak of fame when director, producer and actor Hugo Haas chose her to be his muse in the seven movies they made together.
Surpassed by Marilyn Monroe, Kim Novak, Anita Ekberg and Jayne Mansfield, Cleo kept fighting for fame and recognition, carving out a remarkable career, in and out of the spotlight. She became a successful businesswoman, and married a real estate mogul, but money did not guarantee happiness. Having kept a secret all her life¿- why she left Hollywood in 1957¿- she died far too young, unfulfilled in her career and her personal life.
