Lana Turner
Turner was one of the more iconic actresses from the 1940s and 50s. She was one of the first sex symbols, which she didn't love. Turner felt that her attractiveness overplayed her talent, so she wanted to make more of her career in Hollywood...
No Matter How Hard She Tried
Turner desperately wanted to get away from being an international sex symbol. Throughout her incredible career, she couldn't avoid getting typecast as the stereotypical "hot woman." Between the pigeon-holing and Turner's very public murder scandal, it's sad to look back and see that she lived a life she did not want to live.
