About Corinne Calvet

Corinne Calvet, born Corinne Dibos, was a French actress who appeared mostly in American films. According to one obituary, she was promoted "as a combination of Marlene Dietrich and Rita Hayworth", but her persona failed to live up to this description, though the fault lay partially with a string of mediocre films. She eventually became better known for her turbulent private life and some well-publicised legal battles. Her first marriage was to actor John Bromfield (1948 – March 17, 1954), who co-starred with her in Rope of Sand and who she claimed had been ordered to marry her by his studio. Calvet once said "American men make wonderful husbands if you don't love them.
