sometimes, human psychology BAFFLES me with it inherent hypocrisy.
Like... You can get yourself to forgive a guy who tried to murder you (and NEARLY SUCCEEDED) because he feeds into your self-loathing and was going through a tough time.
But you can't bring yourself to forgive a guy who was basically your brother for giving something precious of yours to someone else because the person who got it is someone you hate, even though your brother was going through an arguably tougher time than the last guy, but you gave HIM a com to contact you and a notice of your location while ghosting the only guy who tried to include you in a family you FORCED YOURSELF INTO!
Tim forgave Jason easily because of his self-hate complex and resents Dick because of his Damian-hate complex. Technically he has every right to hate Damian, but the only reason he hates Damian for trying to kill him, and not Jason, is because JASON had a good enough excuse and Timmy's a fanboy.

Did Claudia Cardinale and María Felix meet?
Yes, they met in June 1961 taking pictures with the singer Lady Patachou at the "Nuit de la chancellerie" gala in France but the Felix - Cardinale relationship was not and did not reach a friendship.
At the end of the following year director Henry Hathaway was looking for an older, experienced actress for his film "Circus World" for the role of "Lili Alfredo", the mother of Tony Alfredo (played by Claudia Cardinale), and here comes the problem. First they offered María Félix the role of "Lili Alfredo" playing the mother of "Tony" but the popular 'María Bonita' expressed herself saying: "I will not play the role of the mother of a novice actress" since she found out that Claudia would be the protagonist.
To María Felix's petulant refusal; the director Henry Hathaway did not know who to offer and this was known to John Wayne (father of Claudia/Tony in the film as Matt Masters) to whom the director gave his trust so that he would not leave his 'daughter' Tony "orphaned" and Wayne contacted his dear friend the iconic Rita Hayworth and she kindly accepted without any differences with the new young protagonist Claudia Cardinale.
Filming began in September 1963 and concluded in February 1964 in Madrid, Spain, premiering that same year, being a great success at the time!
"One day Rita came into my caravan and started crying, something that disconcerted me and she told me: 'I was beautiful too one day'. It hurt me a lot because for me she was a goddess"
-Claudia Cardinale in "Essere Claudia", 2007.
