0:01:47 > 0:01:50High heels? Boots?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Leather boots... With laces?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Very good, yes. I'll take that.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Um, do you have any other material.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06that shows...
0:02:06 > 0:02:08restraint?
0:02:16 > 0:02:20It's a big favourite among certain customers.
0:02:20 > 0:02:21The model is very popular.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Do you have any more pictures like this?
0:02:29 > 0:02:30I'll have to check the stockroom.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Sir, I'm Detective Farrell of the New York Police Department.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38We have to ask you a few questions about the material for sale in your shop.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42We have reason to believe you are selling obscene and indecent literature on these premises.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52Any witness who feels that he or she may be.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55embarrassed by the lights or by the TV and movie cameras,

0:02:58 > 0:03:03Because of the rules of the building, we cannot have smoking in the courtroom.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05That is difficult for some, I realise,
0:03:05 > 0:03:07including the chairman.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11Since assuming the chairmanship of the Senate sub-committee.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15to investigate juvenile delinquency, I have become increasingly concerned
0:03:15 > 0:03:17during each passing week.
0:03:17 > 0:03:23with the effect pornographic material has on American adolescents and juveniles,
0:03:23 > 0:03:25and with the widespread distribution
0:03:25 > 0:03:29of this insidious filth.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Father Egan, you think this pornographic literature
0:03:32 > 0:03:36- is having a substantial and degrading effect?- I certainly do.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38It is corrupting.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42It is rotting at the very roots of our nation.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Communism will never defeat America.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47No, it's something from within,
0:03:47 > 0:03:51WITHIN the nation that will rot and corrupt it.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23"Dear Bettie, how are things in New York City?
0:04:23 > 0:04:25"We haven't heard from you in a while.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28"I guess you must be real busy with your modelling career.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32"Here's a picture of you and me at Christmas after church.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35"It was nice being together again.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37"Hope you visit soon.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39"All my love, Goldie."
0:04:40 > 0:04:44And they went forth and preached everywhere.
0:04:44 > 0:04:49The Lord working with them, confirming the word
0:04:49 > 0:04:51with signs.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52Amen.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57I know, friends, that one of these days, God's gonna call me home.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00When he calls, I know it's gonna be, praise God,
0:05:00 > 0:05:02to my eternal home.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06But before he calls, he's gonna give you the chance.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09to come to him. Yes, friends, don't you know the Lord
0:05:09 > 0:05:12gives every sinner man
0:05:12 > 0:05:16and every sinner woman the chance to come to him, seek him out?
0:05:16 > 0:05:20I feel like singing an invitational hymn now. Brother John?
0:05:20 > 0:05:23If there be any unsaved souls here tonight
0:05:23 > 0:05:28who feel like giving their hearts to Christ, come seek him out.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31# Come all you sinners
0:05:31 > 0:05:35# And be not proud
0:05:35 > 0:05:39# For you must die
0:05:39 > 0:05:42# And wear this shroud
0:05:42 > 0:05:46# For time will rob you
0:05:46 > 0:05:50# Of all your bloom
0:05:50 > 0:05:54# And death will drag you
0:05:54 > 0:05:57# To your tomb
0:05:57 > 0:06:02# Oh, then you'll cry
0:06:02 > 0:06:07# "I want to be"
0:06:07 > 0:06:11# So happy in
0:06:11 > 0:06:15# Eternity. #

0:08:12 > 0:08:13Well, you can.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- They're prettier than me. - That's hard to believe.

0:08:25 > 0:08:30"One of the fundamental principles of democracy is the people's right..."
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- Did you write that?- Yes, I did.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36I'm on the debating team. Got to memorise it by Friday.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38I'd like to debate you sometime.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42You're probably a lot smarter than me, but I bet I could put up a good fight.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44That's very interesting.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46I was never much for studying.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49They just passed me in school so I could play ball.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03- How good are you? - I know a few steps.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05If you come out with me, I'll show you.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Well, I'd like to, but... - Better hurry up.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11You're gonna run out of time.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- I signed up.- You're going overseas? - That's right. The army.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Well, my mother doesn't approve of dating.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23That's a shame. That's a darn shame.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26You tell your mother Billy Neal would like to take you out.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Maybe I will.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32I'm gonna marry that girl.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35No, you ain't gonna marry her. Everybody wants that gal.

0:17:04 > 0:17:09"I've decided to make a fresh start in New York City.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11"I've found an apartment just off Times Square
0:17:11 > 0:17:14"and painted and decorated it myself.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17"I entered a beauty contest or two.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21"I won second prize in one, which was not too bad.
0:17:21 > 0:17:26"A set of brand new Revere pots and pans, which I needed very much.
0:17:26 > 0:17:32"I hope this finds y'all well and healthy and you kids are staying out of trouble.
0:17:32 > 0:17:33"Love to y'all,
0:17:33 > 0:17:35"Bettie."

0:17:45 > 0:17:51# Evermore. #
0:17:52 > 0:17:53Can I ask you a question?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55- Well... - Don't be nervous. I'm a policeman.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Let me show you my badge.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00See?
0:18:01 > 0:18:05I was just curious. Have you ever done any photographic modelling?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Well, not for photographs. - Well, you look like a model.
0:18:08 > 0:18:13I'm a policeman, but I'm a photographer, too. On weekends, you know?
0:18:13 > 0:18:15If you let me take your picture, I'll give you copies for free.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Take my photo? Right here?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Sure, why not?- Looking like this?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21Sure!
0:18:21 > 0:18:25- I don't know. - You're a southern girl, aren't you?
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Well, I don't wanna make you feel uncomfortable.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Oh, no, no, it's not that. Don't get me wrong.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34I worked with a coloured woman, and she was real nice. It's just...
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Well, I...
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Oh, what's the harm in it?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Come on, over here.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Good, Bettie. So where're you from in the South?
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Nashville, Tennessee.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Ah, home of the Grand Ole Opry.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57- You know it? - I hear it on the radio sometimes.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59My wife listens to it now and then.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Could you lift your chin up for me, please?
0:19:02 > 0:19:05A little more. Good.
0:19:05 > 0:19:10Now, uh... Head up and to the right.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Great, Bettie. Good.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Hey, Officer.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33It seems as if some of the people here aren't happy about me taking your picture, Bettie.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Well, they're just prejudiced.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39I used to be when I was younger, but I grew up and I learned better.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41All we're doing is taking pictures.
0:19:41 > 0:19:42< There's kids here.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46Maybe next time we should use my studio.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06Good. Good.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26- I'd like to see your figure in profile.- OK.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Right. Now, this is a trick.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32that a lot of photographic models use.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36If you put this in your swimming suit top, it will enhance your bustline.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42This is all lumpy.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Well, you have to put it underneath.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Oh...
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Good. Now give me saucy.

0:21:06 > 0:21:11Would you mind if I changed your hairstyle?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Come, please.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15You have a high, round forehead.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19There's nothing wrong with it, but it catches the light.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21But if we covered it...
0:21:28 > 0:21:30..it wouldn't catch the light,
0:21:30 > 0:21:33and it frames your face.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35Yeah, I see what you mean.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Yeah? Shall we try?

0:22:27 > 0:22:31Maxie, we're dying over here. Don't forget us boys in the corner.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Very good, Maxie. Can you bend over on one leg?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37- No, like this.- Hey!
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Hey, no touching! Do it again and you're out on your ear.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43You don't have to worry about that. There's no funny business here.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45I see to that.
0:22:45 > 0:22:46You think you can do it?
0:22:46 > 0:22:49I can sure try.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06CAMERAS CLICK
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Let's see that smile, kid.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Turn to me.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Lift that leg a little bit.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Yeah. And higher.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27I saw it. I saw beaver!
0:23:27 > 0:23:29You're dreaming. It was a shadow.
0:23:29 > 0:23:30I saw it!
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- What's her name?- It's Bettie.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36Hey, Bettie. Can you bend over for us a little bit?
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Please?- Show us your keister?
0:23:45 > 0:23:46APPROVING MURMUR
0:23:46 > 0:23:49Hello, keister! Very nice.
0:24:04 > 0:24:11To want or need a mask to hide behind. Comes from a distrust of ourselves.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13It comes from our fear that we ourselves are boring.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15All right. Now, let's try to go back.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17to that first object exercise,
0:24:17 > 0:24:21recreating two minutes of ordinary life
0:24:21 > 0:24:22when we're alone.
0:24:22 > 0:24:27Bettie, would you like to show us what you've been working on?
0:24:38 > 0:24:42The curtain rises. and you are sitting on stage.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44You are alone. You sit...
0:24:45 > 0:24:47..and sit.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50At last, the curtain comes down.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55Nothing could be simpler, could it?
0:24:55 > 0:24:56The curtain rises...
0:25:36 > 0:25:37The curtain comes down.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Bettie, my angel,
0:25:43 > 0:25:46it's not necessary to remove your clothes.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53I'd like to try the exercise next, if I may.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56OK, Marvin.
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Ahem.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05Curtain rises.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26Curtain down. You see,
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Marvin sat...
0:26:30 > 0:26:31..and waited,
0:26:31 > 0:26:33and did not act anything.
0:26:33 > 0:26:40Now, it may not seem interesting to you, to sit and wait as you do it, but it's life.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43Now, that's all for today. I'll see you on Wednesday. Thanks.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52Hey, don't worry, Bettie.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54It's like he said. It was a hard exercise.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57I was terrible.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59I couldn't concentrate. I felt silly.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02No, no. I liked what you did.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05I thought it was really interesting and very modern.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Don't feel bad.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Hey, how about a milkshake?
0:27:13 > 0:27:15That was back when I was trying to write a great American novel.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18It all seems so juvenile. You know, trying to be Ernest Hemingway.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23But then a friend dragged me to Herbert's class, and, I don't know,
0:27:23 > 0:27:26acting just felt so...inspiring.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29I know exactly what you mean. It's like when you're in church.
0:27:29 > 0:27:36- Uh-huh.- Well, sometimes with the preaching and the singing and all, you get lifted up,
0:27:36 > 0:27:39- up out of yourself. It's like you're taken to another place.- Yeah!
0:27:39 > 0:27:41Taken to another place, that's it.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48Bettie, I feel like I've been talking about myself for hours.
0:27:48 > 0:27:53- So what about you? What drew you to acting?- I started in high school.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55and did all the plays.
0:27:55 > 0:27:56I guess you could say
0:27:56 > 0:27:58it ruined my life.
0:27:58 > 0:28:02- How so?- Well, I was gonna be our high school valedictorian.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05Everyone said it was gonna be me.
0:28:05 > 0:28:09The valedictorian gets a full scholarship to Vanderbilt University.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11- It's a real big deal.- Hmm.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Well, one day I had a dress rehearsal
0:28:14 > 0:28:16and I cut one class,
0:28:16 > 0:28:19one stupid art class.
0:28:19 > 0:28:24So I got an A-minus instead of an A, and Martin Murphy got the scholarship.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27And I got to be salutatorian
0:28:27 > 0:28:30and a place at a teacher training college.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34And I hated teaching. All the boys whistled at me and acted up.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37I just couldn't control the class.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40I wanted that scholarship so much.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Jeez, I'm sorry, Bettie.
0:28:45 > 0:28:49Hey, you know, it seemed so bitter at the time, but maybe it's fate telling you
0:28:49 > 0:28:52you were meant for something else.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54Well, I wonder.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58I hope you're right about that.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01TYPEWRITERS CLANG
0:29:13 > 0:29:17Look at that over there. Here we go again. I know it's coming.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Listen, girls, I just want you to know. That Peggy is gonna be doing
0:29:20 > 0:29:24- some semi-nude posing today. - All very tasteful, of course.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27If you're feeling shy about that, bathing suits are just dandy with us.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30Although there's nothing more beautiful than nude modelling in open air.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34Art, I've told you, my boyfriend would blow his top if I did that.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37Of course, of course. It's completely up to you.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39Thank you, Art, Frank.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42We appreciate you telling us.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44Beautiful.
0:29:44 > 0:29:49Sometimes when I get homesick, I just go to Central Park and walk around for hours.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Gee, I like to do that too.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55Some people think I'm funny for spending so much time alone.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58Oh, no, Bettie. You're in very good company.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- Many of the world's greatest thinkers spent most of their time alone.- They did?
0:30:02 > 0:30:04Well, I'll be.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07CAMERA CLICKS
0:30:11 > 0:30:13I'm roasting. Do you wanna call it quits?
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Oh, no, I'm fine. I love the sun.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Well, we'd better move into the shade after these shots, though.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21You don't want get a mark from your bathing suit straps.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Well, thank you, Charlie.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25That's very thoughtful of you.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30You know,
0:30:30 > 0:30:34I could take this little old bathing suit top off, if you like.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36Really?
0:30:36 > 0:30:38Oh, sure, yeah.
0:30:38 > 0:30:41- If you don't mind. - Well, I've been thinking about it
0:30:41 > 0:30:44and what difference does it make, a little piece of cloth?
0:30:44 > 0:30:46I agree. Absolutely.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Oh, thank you.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56You know, Bettie, you're the most popular model at our club.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00Flattery is the devil's tool, Charlie.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02How's this?
0:31:02 > 0:31:06I don't know how to say this, and don't be offended, but...
0:31:06 > 0:31:09well, we've come this far...
0:31:09 > 0:31:12Do you think you could take off the bottom as well?
0:31:12 > 0:31:15After all, it's just a little piece of fabric.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17Don't you go throwing my words back at me, Charlie.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21Just kidding you. It's fine.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24Sure, I don't mind.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45Um, um... Bettie?
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- Bettie?- Yes?
0:31:50 > 0:31:53If we show too much, I could get arrested.
0:31:53 > 0:31:55What do you mean?
0:31:55 > 0:31:59The top is OK, but you have to hide that.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03Oh... Oh, I'll just put the bottoms back on.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06No, no, no, you don't have to do that.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08Um, the backside's OK.
0:32:12 > 0:32:13How's this?
0:32:15 > 0:32:19Oh, thank you. That's perfect.
0:32:53 > 0:32:58- A copy of "She", the man's picture magazine.- Oh, Marvin.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03A-ha, there she is.
0:33:03 > 0:33:04In roller-skates this time.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06I know, they're silly.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08"Gals think men are beasts!
0:33:08 > 0:33:12"This doll thinks a gorilla makes a safer boyfriend." You wolf!
0:33:13 > 0:33:17I'm not sure I like the idea of other men seeing you like this.
0:33:17 > 0:33:21It's a bathing suit, Marvin.
0:33:21 > 0:33:22You make it look so good.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Come on.
0:33:29 > 0:33:31Yeah, I know. I know.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36- Yes... yes? - Hi. I got your name from Maxie.
0:33:36 > 0:33:40- My name's Bettie Page. I'm a model. - Oh, yeah. She told me about you.
0:33:40 > 0:33:45Just one minute. Yeah, we got some nice William Holden. Colour, eight by ten.
0:33:45 > 0:33:49Yeah, Stewart Granger we got, yeah. Just come into the store. Anything you want, we got, OK?
0:33:49 > 0:33:51- Thank you so much.- All right.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53So Maxie told you about us?
0:33:53 > 0:33:56Yes. She said there would be some unusual costumes to put on.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59OK, great. Why don't you go right upstairs
0:33:59 > 0:34:02and talk to my brother Irv while I close up here, OK?
0:34:02 > 0:34:03PHONE RINGS
0:34:03 > 0:34:04Klaw Studios
0:34:04 > 0:34:09featuring the largest variety of popular model photos in the world. Well, what are you interested in?
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Films, cartoons, pictorials?
0:34:12 > 0:34:16We got some great new pictorials in, very high quality... Just a moment.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18Hi, I'm Irving Klaw. You hungry?
0:34:18 > 0:34:22We've got sandwiches over there... some beautiful sliced brisket.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Oh, I'm fine, thanks.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28OK. Dressing room's through there.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Uh, no more "Boudoir Beauties in High Heels".
0:34:35 > 0:34:38What about some fighting girl movies? No?
0:34:38 > 0:34:40"Bound In Rubber",
0:34:40 > 0:34:41"Pleasure Parade",
0:34:41 > 0:34:44and "Fearful Ordeal In Restraint Land."
0:34:44 > 0:34:49That last one's an excellent seller, because of the quality of the poses, which, in my opinion,
0:34:49 > 0:34:51are among the most strenuous bondage photos ever made.
0:35:00 > 0:35:04Whoa-whoa, how anyone walks in these old shoes is beyond me.
0:35:04 > 0:35:07- You don't have far to go. Jack, give her a hand.- Oh, hello.
0:35:07 > 0:35:08- Pleased to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
0:35:08 > 0:35:13- These shoes are kind of unusual. - We get a lot of requests for them, don't we, Irving?- Sure do.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17Stiletto heels, black seamed stockings, different poses.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19High heels are very popular.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21- There you go. - OK, sit her down there, Jack.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23All right, Bettie.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25Let's go. Beautiful, Bettie.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Oh!
0:35:27 > 0:35:30- I think we got a little problem. Something's peeking out.- Yep.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32We better put another pair over them.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36Yeah, we gotta put these over the ones you got on. These will be OK, huh?
0:35:36 > 0:35:39As if the customers care. It's the shoes they want.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41Shoes and boots, boots and shoes,
0:35:41 > 0:35:44- they can't get enough of them.- Why?
0:35:44 > 0:35:48- Don't ask. It takes all types to make a world.- What kind of types?
0:35:51 > 0:35:56You see, the customers who want this stuff, they're very respectable, very high quality people.
0:35:56 > 0:36:01Doctors, lawyers, diplomats... Even a judge. They're not people like us.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05The pressures they've got... they're not your average Joe.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08So what if they want something that seems a little strange, right?
0:36:08 > 0:36:13- If it makes them happy?- Sure. - Sometimes they come into the store, and I can see they want
0:36:13 > 0:36:18- something different. Irving says I can spot them a mile off. - She can. She's got an instinct.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21If I think it's shoes they want, I'll pull out a movie star -
0:36:21 > 0:36:24Lana Turner, let's say, with a nice pair of high heels -
0:36:24 > 0:36:28and I'll point to them and say, "Hmm, something like this, maybe?"
0:36:28 > 0:36:32Oh, the look on their face, like they're so relieved I understand.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34And then I start pulling out the special stuff.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37Look at the time. We gotta go.
0:36:37 > 0:36:42- Jack, let's put some music on.- OK. - Let's put some music. You like music, Bettie?- Oh, yeah.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45- You OK, Bettie? The shoes hurting? - I'm fine. Just fine.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48Turn your backside to us so we can see the stocking seams.
0:36:48 > 0:36:52Nice, nice. Wonderful, Bettie.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55To me, turn to me.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57Great! It's nice, right?
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Just get into it, feel it.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03MUSIC PLAYS
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Gorgeous, gorgeous. Oh, you're so happy.
0:37:10 > 0:37:14She's great. Oh, that's right, honey.
0:37:14 > 0:37:19Do that cha-cha, give me that. Great, Bettie. Gorgeous.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22Listen to this. "You have long stretches of nervous letdown
0:37:22 > 0:37:25"in playing your part, complete artistic impotence.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28"At such times your playing is lifeless, stilted."
0:37:28 > 0:37:30I think he was talking about me there.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33No, no, he's talking about all of us.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36I'm just so nervous.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39They liked the photographs I sent them, but they never heard me speak.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41- It's a western?- Uh-huh. - Maybe they'll need
0:37:41 > 0:37:45a good Southern girl. Just remember, acting is about truth.
0:37:45 > 0:37:49You find truth in the character, no-one will give a damn that you're from Tennessee.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58OK, start from here.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01Come on, turn.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04Not... Slowly slowly, not so quick.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09And look at me
0:38:09 > 0:38:11with your beautiful eyes.
0:38:14 > 0:38:19Now, this way. Straight.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Now, say something nice.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Um...
0:38:29 > 0:38:31I don't know what to say.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35Come on, we're recording sound so you can say something.
0:38:40 > 0:38:44- I'm sorry.- Don't be so sorry, OK?
0:38:44 > 0:38:46You're behaving like a six-year-old.
0:38:46 > 0:38:50Come on, look at me with your beautiful eyes.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53And?
0:38:58 > 0:39:00Ahem... Hi, I'm Bettie Page.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Um... I'm from Nashville, Tennessee.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11Right. OK, that's it. You're all done, sweetie.
0:39:13 > 0:39:17I thought you looked really great under the lights. You're a knockout.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20- Real star material. - Uh, you think so?
0:39:20 > 0:39:22I was awfully nervous.
0:39:22 > 0:39:25You'll have to work on that accent, of course,
0:39:25 > 0:39:28but it would be no fun if you were perfect.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Say, why don't you have dinner with me tonight?
0:39:30 > 0:39:34I could give you a few pointers. We could get to know each other better.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37Oh, I'm sorry, but I can't. I already have a boyfriend.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Oh, come on.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41It'll be fun.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44It's always an advantage to know the producer personally.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46I really have to go.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50You try and do a girl a favour...
0:39:58 > 0:40:01- Still not tight enough. - I told you, it won't go any tighter.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03I've been trying for 20 minutes.
0:40:03 > 0:40:09- You'll ruin the whole thing because you're too lazy to do it properly. - Oh, come off it.
0:40:09 > 0:40:13- Set the shot up the way I told you. - I got it. Bettie, you're supposed to be in at ten.
0:40:13 > 0:40:15You're not on the clock, you don't get paid.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Irving, you're in the shot.
0:40:17 > 0:40:19OK?
0:40:23 > 0:40:25Give it in the eyes.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27Give it in the eyes, darling.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29- Beautiful. - Can we see a bit of heel maybe?
0:40:29 > 0:40:32- A little bit of heel.- Uh, that's good. A little bit of bum.
0:40:32 > 0:40:36- I really like bum.- That's perfect. - Lovely bum, darling.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37See, she's one of our best.
0:40:37 > 0:40:43And then he admitted that he paid Roz 12 bucks an hour and they gave me ten. Cheek of it!
0:40:43 > 0:40:46So I says to Irving, "Pardon me, but who's been freezing her derriere off
0:40:46 > 0:40:50"every Saturday for the past six months? Not Roz Greenwood."
0:40:50 > 0:40:51Gee, that's not fair.
0:40:51 > 0:40:55Roz is real nice, but you're a better model. Everyone says so.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58- Hey, girls, how you doing? - We're cold. Can we get another heater in here?
0:40:58 > 0:41:03I'll see what I can do You keep brushing your hair, it'll fall out of your head.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07Let me explain something to you. This is one of our private sessions. John.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10We call him Little John to tell him apart from Big John.
0:41:10 > 0:41:15He's the photographer out there. Anyway, Little John has some special outfits he'd like you to put on.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17- I'd say they're special.- Maxie.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21Yeah, all right, some of them are a real hoot, but he's a very nice man.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24Yeah, he's not normal, but he's nice.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27He's one of our best customers, so will you try and do what he says?
0:41:29 > 0:41:31What does she mean?
0:41:31 > 0:41:36Oh, it's nothing bad. You just have to scare him and act mean. Like this.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Actually, it's kind of fun.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42You're lucky. Wait until you see what I have to do.
0:41:45 > 0:41:49- Hey! Ouch, that's too tight.- Well, that is rather the point, my dear.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52- The tighter the better. - Paula.- Maxie, are they hurting you?
0:41:52 > 0:41:54She's all right. Aren't you, Maxie?
0:41:54 > 0:41:56I am not. I'm getting rope burns.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58All right. Let's get a move on.
0:41:58 > 0:41:59Bettie, stand over there.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05I'd like this young lady to look very strict.
0:42:05 > 0:42:09- He'd like her to look very strict. - He'd like you to look very strict.
0:42:22 > 0:42:26Come on, my dear, more passion. Fire.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32More...
0:42:32 > 0:42:34tigress, huh?
0:42:35 > 0:42:36HE SNARLS
0:42:36 > 0:42:39SHE SNARLS
0:42:39 > 0:42:42HE SNARLS MORE VIGOROUSLY
0:42:43 > 0:42:44Whoa, very good.
0:42:44 > 0:42:50Dominate the men who adore you. Crush them with your exquisite high heels!
0:42:55 > 0:42:58Come, fill the cup.
0:42:58 > 0:43:02And in the fire of spring, the winter garment of repentance fling.
0:43:02 > 0:43:04Oh, that's very nice. Is that from a poem?
0:43:04 > 0:43:06Not just a poem, my dear, the poem...
0:43:06 > 0:43:09The Rubaiyat Of Omar Khayyam.
0:43:09 > 0:43:14- Whoa...oh, no, thank you. I don't drink.- Come on, have a drink with me.
0:43:14 > 0:43:17Most of the time these last six months, I seem to be drinking by myself.
0:43:17 > 0:43:19Or with strangers whom I don't much like.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25- Might I tempt you with a mushroom cap?- Oh.
0:43:25 > 0:43:29- So what do you do, Little John? - He has a very successful legal practice
0:43:29 > 0:43:31with many distinguished clients.
0:43:31 > 0:43:36- How is business, John? You been keeping busy?- Uh, quite busy, But mother hasn't been very well.
0:43:36 > 0:43:40- So I've been spending a lot of time at home with her.- Sorry to hear it.
0:43:40 > 0:43:43And what about those legal difficulties you mentioned?
0:43:44 > 0:43:46I had a letter from the postal inspector warning me
0:43:46 > 0:43:49about sending some of my pictures through the mail.
0:43:49 > 0:43:51What do you know about getting around that?
0:43:51 > 0:43:54The only court ruling that I know of on that issue
0:43:54 > 0:43:58is the case of this fellow, Al Urban. The post office tried to prevent him
0:43:58 > 0:44:00from sending photos of nude men through the mail.
0:44:00 > 0:44:03They got the Civil Liberties Union involved.
0:44:03 > 0:44:05The Chicago court ruled that the materials
0:44:05 > 0:44:07- were not obscene. - We don't even have nudes.
0:44:07 > 0:44:10He had to be careful he was only sending stuff to adults.
0:44:10 > 0:44:14Tell me, what do you think of all this tying-up business?
0:44:14 > 0:44:16You seem to have a knack for posing.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19And I'm always on the lookout for comely wenches
0:44:19 > 0:44:21who don't mind a bit of the old rope and gag.
0:44:21 > 0:44:24Well, it certainly was different.
0:44:24 > 0:44:27I liked what you did with that riding crop.
0:44:27 > 0:44:30It's a treat to see a girl with so much spirit.
0:44:30 > 0:44:33Oh, I enjoy acting very much.
0:44:33 > 0:44:36I've been taking lessons.
0:44:36 > 0:44:41Oh... we shall have to put you in a little film or something, shan't we?
0:44:41 > 0:44:46Little John, old cock, what say we give this charming creature a role
0:44:46 > 0:44:47in "Sally's Punishment"?
0:44:47 > 0:44:51I bet she's a dab hand with the cords.
0:44:51 > 0:44:54MUSIC: "It's A Good Day" by Peggy Lee
0:47:17 > 0:47:20Could you stop there, please?
0:47:20 > 0:47:23These films include bondage, spanking and flagellation,
0:47:23 > 0:47:26all illegal to send through the U.S. Mails.
0:47:26 > 0:47:28I will need you to sign a stipulation
0:47:28 > 0:47:33stating that you will agree not to sell any films, photographs or drawings depicting these acts.
0:47:33 > 0:47:36Sir, if I may. My client sells
0:47:36 > 0:47:40a number of photographs of stills from Hollywood films.
0:47:40 > 0:47:44Take one, for example, from "Tarzan And The Slave Girl".
0:47:44 > 0:47:47A scantily clad actress is tied up.
0:47:47 > 0:47:50Lash marks are visible on her back.
0:47:50 > 0:47:54Now, this film passed the National Board of Review.
0:47:54 > 0:47:59- What is your point, Mr Gangel? - Well, certainly, you can't intend for my client to stop selling
0:47:59 > 0:48:01these Hollywood film stills, Inspector.
0:48:01 > 0:48:05Those images represent a minute part of a feature-length film
0:48:05 > 0:48:07intended as harmless entertainment.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09Mr Klaw's films and photographs are created
0:48:09 > 0:48:13with the deliberate intention of inciting lust
0:48:13 > 0:48:16and lascivious thoughts, and should therefore be barred
0:48:16 > 0:48:18from being sent through the mails.
0:48:18 > 0:48:22If you do not cease and desist, this will become a matter for the courts.
0:48:41 > 0:48:46Hi, girls. That looks very artistic.
0:48:46 > 0:48:51- What's it called?- Bettie's Clown Dance.- Very nice.- How'd it go?
0:48:51 > 0:48:53- Not good.- You look terrible.
0:48:53 > 0:48:57- Is it your heart? Did you get the fluttering again? - Ah, no, I'm fine.
0:48:57 > 0:48:58Bettie, that's all for today.
0:48:58 > 0:49:01Listen, Bettie, I hope you don't mind...
0:49:01 > 0:49:04we need to take a little break from production, maybe a couple of weeks.
0:49:04 > 0:49:06- Sure.- Take off. Take a vacation.
0:49:06 > 0:49:09You know where I'd go if I could ever get away from here?
0:49:09 > 0:49:14- Where would you go?- Miami Beach.
0:49:14 > 0:49:17That's where I'm gonna go if I ever get to retire.
0:49:17 > 0:49:21Sit in the sand and watch the waves.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23Sun and fun, Bettie.
0:49:28 > 0:49:31Dear Goldie, guess what?
0:49:31 > 0:49:33I decided to take a vacation.
0:49:33 > 0:49:35I've been spending loads of time on the beach.
0:49:35 > 0:49:38The water is so clear and so blue.
0:49:42 > 0:49:44Now I've been working, too.
0:49:44 > 0:49:47A friend gave me an introduction to a photographer
0:49:47 > 0:49:50who takes beautiful artistic pictures.
0:49:50 > 0:49:54I hear she's one of the top glamour photographers working today.
0:49:54 > 0:49:58Her name is Miss Bunny Yeager.
0:49:58 > 0:50:01- Miss Yeager?- You must be Bettie.
0:50:01 > 0:50:02Please step this way.
0:50:05 > 0:50:07Would you like some water?
0:50:07 > 0:50:09Yes, I would. Thank you.
0:50:12 > 0:50:16- Is this you?- Yes. That was taken in Hawaii.
0:50:16 > 0:50:20I was a model, too. You brought some clothes with you.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25I made this.
0:50:34 > 0:50:37Is this what you normally pose in?
0:50:37 > 0:50:39Yes. What do you think?
0:50:39 > 0:50:43Well, maybe the bathing suit and the stockings. Not the corset.
0:50:43 > 0:50:46I believe the female form can stand on its own.
0:50:46 > 0:50:49In fact, I'd like to see you in the light.
0:50:49 > 0:50:51Do you mind standing over here by the window?
0:50:56 > 0:50:58And what brings you to Miami, Bettie?
0:50:58 > 0:51:00I don't know.
0:51:00 > 0:51:04- Well, I love the sunshine, love the ocean.- Well, that's perfect.
0:51:04 > 0:51:07I do some of my best work outdoors.
0:51:10 > 0:51:12Yes, she's been shot by just about every
0:51:12 > 0:51:16photographer in the country, but I think I caught something special
0:51:16 > 0:51:19in her personality when I photographed Bettie Page.
0:51:19 > 0:51:23The first thing I noticed was that for some reason, when she's nude,
0:51:23 > 0:51:24she doesn't seem naked.
0:51:24 > 0:51:29Maybe it's just her all-over coppery tan, or maybe just her attitude.
0:51:29 > 0:51:31Whatever it is, it conveyed to me
0:51:31 > 0:51:33that here is a true nudist.
0:51:33 > 0:51:36Bettie's attitude towards her lovely healthy body
0:51:36 > 0:51:38is the essence of nudism.
0:51:43 > 0:51:46Dear Goldie, yes, they made a postcard of yours truly!
0:51:46 > 0:51:49A bunch of them, in fact.
0:51:49 > 0:51:53I had a wonderful time at the beach here, and made some money, too.
0:51:53 > 0:51:54Wish you could have been here with me.
0:51:54 > 0:51:56Hope to see you at Christmas.
0:51:56 > 0:51:59I can't wait to walk through those old piney woods again.
0:51:59 > 0:52:02Love, Bettie.
0:52:05 > 0:52:09What are you bringing us for Christmas, bricks?
0:52:09 > 0:52:11Hope you got something good for me.
0:52:11 > 0:52:15You won't be getting a thing if you don't stop bellyaching.
0:52:15 > 0:52:18And thank you for giving us this food when others are in want.
0:52:18 > 0:52:20And thank you, Lord, for the blessing of family.
0:52:20 > 0:52:25Please shine your precious light on our son, Jimmy, who's in mobile and can't be with us today.
0:52:25 > 0:52:29And on this day of celebration, let us say a prayer for Roy Page.
0:52:29 > 0:52:33And, Lord, help us to forgive him for abandoning his wife and family.
0:52:33 > 0:52:36For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly thankful.
0:52:36 > 0:52:39- Amen.- Amen.
0:52:39 > 0:52:42Jack, don't take all the mashed potatoes.
0:52:42 > 0:52:44Save some for the rest of us.
0:52:44 > 0:52:47So have you met Marilyn Monroe yet?
0:52:47 > 0:52:50- No, Jack.- She lives in Hollywood. I'm in New York.
0:52:50 > 0:52:53A man from The Tennessean called. Says he wants to interview you.
0:52:53 > 0:52:57- He did?- Says you were voted Pin-Up Queen of the Universe.
0:52:57 > 0:53:00- Oh, my!- How long are you gonna make a living doing that?
0:53:00 > 0:53:04Uh, you know, Mama, I'll get by.
0:53:04 > 0:53:05All that teacher training.
0:53:05 > 0:53:09It just seems a shame to waste an education.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12You know I hated teaching.
0:53:12 > 0:53:14I wish Mama would just let that be.
0:53:14 > 0:53:17- Has Mama said anything to you about my modelling?- Not a word.
0:53:17 > 0:53:20But a few weeks ago, I was rooting around in her closet.
0:53:20 > 0:53:24Suddenly, I came across a whole stack of magazines with you in them.
0:53:24 > 0:53:26- Not the nudist ones.- Of course not.
0:53:26 > 0:53:28Just the glamour stuff.
0:53:28 > 0:53:29You still look good in a swimsuit.
0:53:29 > 0:53:32Oh, I never was as pretty as you.
0:53:37 > 0:53:41Madam, as I live and hope for salvation...
0:53:41 > 0:53:44- Ha!- Aye, I am as like to be saved as thou
0:53:44 > 0:53:49that believes naught save some black magic of words and verses.
0:53:49 > 0:53:51Oh, madam, if you would know what misery is,
0:53:51 > 0:53:55listen to this man who is more than man and less at the same time.
0:53:55 > 0:54:02He will tie you down to anatomize your very soul, he will wring tears of blood from your humiliation, and
0:54:02 > 0:54:07then he will heal the wound with flatteries no woman can resist.
0:54:07 > 0:54:10Madam, she is jealous, and heaven help me,
0:54:10 > 0:54:17not without reason, for how can I be content with this black-haired, black-eyed, blackavised devil
0:54:17 > 0:54:21now that I have looked upon real beauty and real majesty?
0:54:21 > 0:54:24Oh, he is compact of lies and scorns.
0:54:24 > 0:54:26I'm tired of being tossed up to heaven
0:54:26 > 0:54:29and dragged down to hell with every whim that takes him.
0:54:29 > 0:54:32I am, of all ladies, most deject
0:54:32 > 0:54:34and wretched.
0:54:34 > 0:54:37We know from Stanislavski
0:54:37 > 0:54:40that there can be no true art without living.
0:54:40 > 0:54:47To reproduce feelings, you must be able to identify them out of your own experience.
0:54:47 > 0:54:51Now, Bettie, would you tell the class what you did
0:54:51 > 0:54:56to find the truth in the lady in waiting's emotions?
0:54:56 > 0:54:58Well, I tried to think of something that would make me
0:54:58 > 0:55:00really scared.
0:55:00 > 0:55:02And what was that, Bettie?
0:55:02 > 0:55:06I thought of what Jesus might do to me for all my sins.
0:55:08 > 0:55:09Marvellous.
0:55:48 > 0:55:50Are you sure?
0:55:50 > 0:55:51OK, I'll get back to you.
0:55:56 > 0:56:01This is quite an elegant knot, really. The more the subject pulls, the tighter the knot becomes.
0:56:01 > 0:56:06- What did the lawyer say?- Not good. It's not good. Can I have a word with you in the office?
0:56:06 > 0:56:09Of course. Carry on. You're off the clock at nine.
0:56:15 > 0:56:17Mmmm.
0:56:20 > 0:56:25# My gal's the queen of all the acrobats
0:56:25 > 0:56:29# The see her perform would give you the ruddy shits
0:56:29 > 0:56:33# She could shoot green peas right out of her dirty arsehole
0:56:33 > 0:56:36# Turn a double somersault and catch them on her tits
0:56:36 > 0:56:41# She can run, jump, fight, fuck, roll a hoop, a porsche truck
0:56:41 > 0:56:45- # And that's the kind of great big... # - SHE PROTESTS
0:56:45 > 0:56:46What's the matter, Bettie?
0:56:50 > 0:56:54- Watch your language, Mr Willie. - Oh, it's just an old army ditty.
0:56:54 > 0:56:58It helped keep our spirits up while we were fighting the beastly Hun.
0:56:58 > 0:57:00Don't you approve?
0:57:00 > 0:57:02I believe in Jesus.
0:57:02 > 0:57:05But of course you do, my dear.
0:57:10 > 0:57:11Of course you do.
0:57:28 > 0:57:31Do you mind if I ask you a question, Bettie?
0:57:40 > 0:57:44What do you think Jesus would say about what you're doing now?
0:57:46 > 0:57:48Well, Mr Willie...
0:57:50 > 0:57:52I've thought about this quite a bit.
0:57:53 > 0:57:55I'm not really sure any more.
0:57:57 > 0:58:00I think God has given each of us
0:58:00 > 0:58:03some kind of talent and he wants us to use it.
0:58:03 > 0:58:04That's why he gave it to us.
0:58:06 > 0:58:10Mr Willie, would you mind untying my hands?
0:58:10 > 0:58:13- It's hard for me to think like this. - Certainly.
0:58:13 > 0:58:17God gave me the talent to pose for pictures,
0:58:17 > 0:58:20and it seems to make people happy.
0:58:20 > 0:58:25- Well, that can't be a bad thing, can it?- Not to me, it's not.
0:58:25 > 0:58:27But what does God think?
0:58:27 > 0:58:29Well, I can't say for certain.
0:58:29 > 0:58:32I can't speak for him.
0:58:32 > 0:58:34I do worry sometimes
0:58:34 > 0:58:38- about some of the things. that I've done.- What things?
0:58:42 > 0:58:46I posed naked for photographs.
0:58:47 > 0:58:49Have you, my dear?
0:58:51 > 0:58:54You naughty girl.
0:58:54 > 0:58:59But is that really bad? Adam and Eve were naked in the Garden of Eden.
0:58:59 > 0:59:00So they were.
0:59:02 > 0:59:05Oh, I don't know what God thinks about all this.
0:59:05 > 0:59:07I hope that if he's unhappy
0:59:07 > 0:59:10with what I'm doing,
0:59:10 > 0:59:12he'll let me know somehow.
0:59:12 > 0:59:14I'm sure he will, my dear.
0:59:14 > 0:59:16I'm sure he will.
0:59:27 > 0:59:30Did you love it?
0:59:30 > 0:59:32Bettie, you love of my life!
0:59:33 > 0:59:37- Oh, come on in. What's your poison? Whiskey?- Orange juice, please.
0:59:37 > 0:59:42Oh, Bettie, you will kill me. You're such a square. Hey, would you do me a favour and grab those?
0:59:42 > 0:59:46There's somebody you gotta meet. He'll murder me if I don't introduce you.
0:59:49 > 0:59:52Did anyone ever tell you you look like Montgomery Clift?
0:59:52 > 0:59:54No.
0:59:54 > 0:59:55Howie, Howie.
0:59:55 > 0:59:59- I'd like you to meet Bettie Page. - Hi.- Howie Lippman. Pleasure.
0:59:59 > 1:00:02Listen, I've got this sensational new nightclub opening next week.
1:00:02 > 1:00:07We've got a full orchestra, a floor show, comedians, a juggling act...
1:00:07 > 1:00:10I'd love it if you and your friends would come and see us.
1:00:10 > 1:00:11Did you see that girl?
1:00:11 > 1:00:14- The black-haired job over there? That's Bettie Page.- No, really?
1:00:14 > 1:00:19That's her? She looks different with her clothes on.
1:00:19 > 1:00:23There will be a lot of press. You could be in Winchell's column, and "Hello, career,".
1:00:23 > 1:00:25- You're Bettie Page, aren't you? - Yes, I am.
1:00:25 > 1:00:30I'm really sorry to bother you, I heard you might be here.
1:00:30 > 1:00:33Um... I have a lot of your pictures.
1:00:33 > 1:00:36- If you don't mind, do you think you could sign this for me?- Sure.
1:00:36 > 1:00:39And could you tell me something?
1:00:39 > 1:00:42Does it just make you sick to see guys like me grovel like this?
1:00:42 > 1:00:44Oh, no, it's fine.
1:00:44 > 1:00:51- It's flattering.- Don't you just wanna crush us, humiliate us, punish us?
1:00:51 > 1:00:54No, sir. I'm sure you're a very nice person.
1:00:54 > 1:00:56Hey, there you are, doughnut.
1:00:56 > 1:01:00- Hello, there. Here you go.- Thanks. - Hey, are you signing autographs?
1:01:00 > 1:01:03- Can I see?- Thank you.
1:01:05 > 1:01:07Hmm...
1:01:07 > 1:01:10Long black stockings, hmm.
1:01:14 > 1:01:19"200 excellent poses, bound and gagged"?
1:01:19 > 1:01:22"Rubber masks"? Bettie, what is this?
1:01:22 > 1:01:26Oh, it's just some silly photographs I did for Irving and Paula.
1:01:26 > 1:01:31Bettie, I... I don't think you understand what this is.
1:01:31 > 1:01:34It's just... weird.
1:01:34 > 1:01:36It's just costumes, Marvin.
1:01:36 > 1:01:38We're just dressing up. There's no harm in it.
1:01:38 > 1:01:43Bettie, doctors write books about this sort of thing. It's...
1:01:43 > 1:01:45it's abnormal.
1:01:45 > 1:01:47For goodness sake, Marvin, I'm not nude.
1:01:47 > 1:01:52Bettie, Do you understand what kind of man buys these pictures?
1:01:52 > 1:01:55They're for special customers who like these kinds of costumes...
1:01:55 > 1:01:58high-quality people. I met one of them. He's a lawyer.
1:01:58 > 1:02:01He's very nice. Wouldn't hurt a fly.
1:02:01 > 1:02:03These people you work for...
1:02:03 > 1:02:05is this what they ask you to do?
1:02:06 > 1:02:08Who are these people?!
1:02:08 > 1:02:10They're very nice people, Marvin.
1:02:10 > 1:02:15Look... this thing in your mouth, what is this?
1:02:15 > 1:02:16It's just a prop, Marvin.
1:02:16 > 1:02:20It's just silliness. We're laughing all the time when we're doing it.
1:02:20 > 1:02:21Bettie, it...
1:02:22 > 1:02:24it's disgusting.
1:02:31 > 1:02:34I'm gonna go get some air.
1:03:18 > 1:03:22- Hi.- Hi. - Will you take a picture of me?
1:03:22 > 1:03:27- Yeah.- It's silly. People take pictures of me all the time, but I don't know how to take one of myself.
1:03:29 > 1:03:31- Shall I just stand right here?- Yeah.
1:03:33 > 1:03:36- You just press the little button there.- OK.
1:03:43 > 1:03:45Here's your camera, Miss.
1:03:50 > 1:03:52Where are you going after the beach?
1:03:52 > 1:03:53Home.
1:03:53 > 1:03:56Would you like to go out with me?
1:03:56 > 1:03:58Uh-huh.
1:03:58 > 1:03:59- I'm Bettie.- Hi.
1:03:59 > 1:04:03I am Armand.
1:04:03 > 1:04:06- Oh... it's nice to meet you, Armand. - Nice to meet you too.
1:04:38 > 1:04:42Don't think for a minute that the jungle abounds with cuties like this.
1:04:42 > 1:04:48That pretty hairdo and that naughty little leopard skin are products of a complex civilization.
1:04:48 > 1:04:52Of course, what lies underneath is both civilized and primitive...
1:04:52 > 1:04:54depending on her mood.
1:04:59 > 1:05:03I'm gonna send these pictures to a new magazine. It's called "Playboy." Do you know of it?
1:05:03 > 1:05:04No, ma'am, I don't think I do.
1:05:04 > 1:05:09It's new... very tasteful magazine, printed on beautiful paper. It's very classy.
1:05:09 > 1:05:10Look towards me, please. Like this?
1:05:10 > 1:05:14Perfect. Now, Bettie, the magazine wants to know how old you are.
1:05:14 > 1:05:17- I'm 32.- Oh
1:05:17 > 1:05:20I never would have guessed. I don't think you should tell them that, though.
1:05:20 > 1:05:23No magazine wants a model who's over 25.
1:05:24 > 1:05:26Smile, Bettie.
1:05:27 > 1:05:31OK, I need you to lift your knee up. I'm seeing a little bit too much.
1:05:32 > 1:05:36You know what's funny? Irving Klaw would never let me pose with my top off.
1:05:36 > 1:05:38- Irving Klaw?- Yeah, you know him?
1:05:38 > 1:05:41No. I think I heard his name on TV last night, though.
1:05:41 > 1:05:43Some government investigation.
1:05:43 > 1:05:46- Irving on television?- Yeah, I think he's in a little bit of trouble.
1:05:46 > 1:05:48- What kind of trouble? - I'm sure it's nothing.
1:05:48 > 1:05:51It's probably just some senators blowing a lot of hot air.
1:05:51 > 1:05:53Eyes to the camera, please.
1:05:53 > 1:05:55How about a wink?
1:06:03 > 1:06:08We shall show by these hearings that a large portion of the market for this material
1:06:08 > 1:06:11is with inquisitive and impressionable teenagers.
1:06:11 > 1:06:15There is a peculiar resemblance to narcotics addiction
1:06:15 > 1:06:21in exposure of juveniles to pornography, but there is one difference, however...
1:06:21 > 1:06:25the injection of heroin into the veins of an addict stops with the addict,
1:06:25 > 1:06:32but the contaminative effects of pornography in the hands of just one minor are incapable of measuring.
1:06:37 > 1:06:42Irving says they can't shoot any more until they sort this out.
1:06:42 > 1:06:47Yeah. Maybe it's time I stopped modelling and worked hard at my acting.
1:06:47 > 1:06:50People are getting tired of taking pictures of me anyhow.
1:06:50 > 1:06:55Never. What are you gonna do?
1:06:55 > 1:06:57- I got a plan.- You do?
1:06:57 > 1:07:00You know Frank and Charlie from the camera club?
1:07:00 > 1:07:04- Yeah.- A couple of months ago, they asked to borrow my apartment for a private session.
1:07:04 > 1:07:06So I said, "What's in it for me?".
1:07:06 > 1:07:10So they paid me a little something, and then it became a regular thing every Thursday.
1:07:10 > 1:07:17- Then another couple of guys asked, and I thought, "Why not go into business for myself?"- How?
1:07:17 > 1:07:20Well, I got myself a white fur rug.
1:07:20 > 1:07:23- Nice.- Well, not real fur, but good enough for pictures.
1:07:23 > 1:07:26And a couple of pillars. That's on one side.
1:07:26 > 1:07:30And on another wall, I'm gonna get a mural painted of an Italian lake
1:07:30 > 1:07:34and maybe a fake fireplace on another wall, so I can shoot three sides.
1:07:34 > 1:07:36and get the most out of the space.
1:07:39 > 1:07:42Do you think Paula will be upset?
1:07:42 > 1:07:45- Maybe. It's competition.- Mmm...
1:07:45 > 1:07:48But you got to look after yourself in this world.
1:07:48 > 1:07:50And you can't be a model forever.
1:07:54 > 1:07:58I was reading the theatre section. of the goddamned "New York Times"
1:07:58 > 1:08:01and a drawing of this guy, Petruchio, swinging a whip in "The Taming of the Shrew"...
1:08:01 > 1:08:03a play by Shakespeare...
1:08:03 > 1:08:06- is all over the first page. Nobody cares.- They're all hypocrites.
1:08:06 > 1:08:11Then, I see this illustration in the "New York Times Magazine" of "Kiss Me Kate," a Broadway musical.
1:08:11 > 1:08:12What does it show? Spanking!
1:08:14 > 1:08:18They wanna shut me down for distributing images almost identical to these.
1:08:18 > 1:08:21Shh. Don't say too much. Remember what the lawyer said.
1:08:25 > 1:08:29I'm beginning to get a persecution fear complex.
1:08:32 > 1:08:34You are Mr Klaw?
1:08:34 > 1:08:37- Yes.- Mr Klaw, were you...
1:08:40 > 1:08:45Sir, in accordance with your suggestion, we don't want any pictures.
1:08:47 > 1:08:51Thank you very much. We appreciate your cooperation.
1:08:51 > 1:08:55Uh, Mr.. Klaw, were you requested to bring any books or records?
1:08:55 > 1:08:58- Yes.- Do you have them, sir?
1:08:59 > 1:09:03I decline to make them available under the 5th amendment of the constitution,
1:09:03 > 1:09:06that they may tend to degrade or incriminate me
1:09:06 > 1:09:11and under the 4th amendment of the constitution that the subpoena is vague and illegal.
1:09:11 > 1:09:17Do you wish to make any statement as to why you think producing any books or records called for here
1:09:17 > 1:09:19might tend to incriminate you?
1:09:21 > 1:09:25I decline to answer under the 5th amendment of the constitution,
1:09:25 > 1:09:27that an answer may tend to incriminate me.
1:09:34 > 1:09:40Dr. Henry, I direct your attention to a booklet entitled "Cartoon and Model Parade,"
1:09:40 > 1:09:43published by Irving Klaw of 212 east 14th street.
1:09:43 > 1:09:47I specifically call your attention to the movie "Negligee Fight."
1:09:47 > 1:09:54The heading reads that this 16mm movie shows the terrific battle that ensues
1:09:54 > 1:09:56when both girls claim a black negligee.
1:09:56 > 1:10:01Is this the masochistic type of perversion to which we just referred?
1:10:01 > 1:10:08- It is.- Is there a sexual deviation known as "bondage," where a person is trussed up with rope and chains?
1:10:08 > 1:10:10Yes.
1:10:10 > 1:10:12That is fairly common.
1:10:12 > 1:10:15You say that... that bondage is fairly common?
1:10:15 > 1:10:17Fairly common in this particular group...
1:10:17 > 1:10:19that is, the group of sexual deviants.
1:10:19 > 1:10:24Tell us more about that... uh... bondage being fairly common.
1:10:24 > 1:10:28Among those that are familiar with this variety of sexual deviation,
1:10:28 > 1:10:30it is a matter of common knowledge to them.
1:10:30 > 1:10:34- You mean they like to see someone who is bound up...- Yes, they do.
1:10:34 > 1:10:38- Pictures of them?- Some of them do.
1:10:38 > 1:10:41Now I direct your attention to a series of photographs called "New Specially Posed."
1:10:41 > 1:10:47"Bettie can only feel fear as she is unable to see her captors.
1:10:47 > 1:10:55"Now that the pole was bound to her body, Bettie had to crawl on all fours like an animal.
1:10:55 > 1:10:59"The floor made Bettie's knees red and sore.
1:10:59 > 1:11:05"The unwieldy steel brank kept slipping back and forth, irritating the tender flesh at Bettie's neck,
1:11:05 > 1:11:08"thus making the cold steel an added menace.
1:11:08 > 1:11:14It was most exhausting, but Bettie's strength and endurance were equal to the task."
1:11:15 > 1:11:18Doctor, could I ask you... could... could...
1:11:18 > 1:11:22could children be sexually perverted by looking at photos of this nature?
1:11:22 > 1:11:24Yes.
1:11:24 > 1:11:30Would you say it is a fair statement that suicide, murder and psychosis is the result of this type of trash?
1:11:30 > 1:11:33In some instances, yes.
1:11:37 > 1:11:41Mr Grimm, I want say as Chairman of this Subcommittee...
1:11:41 > 1:11:46I know the embarrassment and the distaste you have in coming here
1:11:46 > 1:11:50to talk about the tragic happening to your son on August 20th of last year.
1:11:50 > 1:11:52We appreciate your cooperation.
1:11:52 > 1:11:54Mr Gaughan, you may proceed.
1:11:54 > 1:12:00Can you, Mr Grimm, tell the subcommittee how it was that your boy met his sudden end
1:12:00 > 1:12:06on the evening of August 20th? Now, I realize it is an unsolved murder, but tell us what you know.
1:12:06 > 1:12:11He'd worked all day for me, come home dirty and tired in his work clothes.
1:12:13 > 1:12:15He was away all evening, which was unusual.
1:12:15 > 1:12:17He never left the house without telling us.
1:12:20 > 1:12:23I found him the next morning in a very...
1:12:23 > 1:12:28grotesque, weird situation that I've never been able to cope with or understand yet.
1:12:31 > 1:12:33He was, um...
1:12:34 > 1:12:38trussed up in a very unnatural position.
1:12:39 > 1:12:42Looked like it had been planned in some way.
1:12:43 > 1:12:48He wasn't hung like most people hang themselves by the neck from a rope.
1:12:48 > 1:12:53And the fact that he didn't have any clothes on... he was a modest boy...
1:12:53 > 1:12:56led me immediately to believe that there was some sex angle to it.
1:12:56 > 1:13:01Mr Grimm, do you recognize, sir, that booklet, entitled "Cartoon and Model Parade,"
1:13:01 > 1:13:06published by Irving Klaw the Pin-up King?
1:13:06 > 1:13:08Yes.
1:13:08 > 1:13:11Would you tell the Subcommittee how you first came across a copy of this book?
1:13:12 > 1:13:16Through a mutual friend who was interested in the case.
1:13:16 > 1:13:19I found very similar pictures of tying people up in this book.
1:13:19 > 1:13:22that reminded me of my son's case.
1:13:22 > 1:13:25I've never come across anything like that before.
1:13:25 > 1:13:27I was looking for a clue.
1:13:27 > 1:13:30Sir, let me direct your attention specifically to page four.
1:13:30 > 1:13:34That picture illustrates a model named Bettie Page.
1:13:34 > 1:13:37Does that accurately reflect how your boy was found?
1:13:37 > 1:13:38It's more or less the same...
1:13:38 > 1:13:40a very similar position.
1:13:40 > 1:13:43I haven't had the police into it. They let the case rest.
1:13:43 > 1:13:47They said it was some sort of accident due to some impulse on the part of the boy.
1:13:47 > 1:13:49I-I don't care what the police think.
1:13:49 > 1:13:55The way he was tied... it wasn't anything any youngster like him with his character could concoct himself.
1:13:55 > 1:13:59There wasn't any history of that, no similar action on his part.
1:13:59 > 1:14:01He led an outdoor life.
1:14:01 > 1:14:05He was active in the boy scouts from the time he was a little bit of a fellow.
1:14:07 > 1:14:11He had only been home for two days from boys' camp in Tennessee when...
1:14:14 > 1:14:15when I found him.
1:14:15 > 1:14:21I feel he could not have put himself into this position of his own making.
1:14:21 > 1:14:23It... it had to be brought to his attention.
1:14:23 > 1:14:27Either by someone else showing him how or he saw a picture of it.
1:14:27 > 1:14:31I do feel there is a definite connection between this sort of thing and his death.
1:14:31 > 1:14:34And I also feel there is a definite evil to this,
1:14:34 > 1:14:37and I'm bound and determined to do what I can to suppress it.
1:14:38 > 1:14:41This is not a healthy situation!
1:14:41 > 1:14:43It's not wholesome.
1:14:43 > 1:14:44There's nothing cultural about it.
1:14:44 > 1:14:46It's just no damn good!
1:14:50 > 1:14:52And that's all I got to say about it.
1:15:02 > 1:15:04Miss Page?
1:15:04 > 1:15:08- Yes, sir?- Your testimony is no longer necessary.
1:15:08 > 1:15:09You can go now.
1:15:09 > 1:15:10What do you mean?
1:15:10 > 1:15:12I've been sitting here for 12 hours.
1:15:12 > 1:15:14Why is it no longer necessary?
1:15:14 > 1:15:17They didn't give an explanation, ma'am.
1:15:18 > 1:15:20Do I have to come back tomorrow?
1:15:20 > 1:15:23No, ma'am. They said they won't need you any more.
1:15:23 > 1:15:24You can go.
1:15:48 > 1:15:51Our girls had fun doing this.
1:15:51 > 1:15:53A fetish? Do you got a fetish? I don't got a fetish.
1:15:53 > 1:15:56All we were interested in was and making money.
1:15:56 > 1:16:00We gotta burn them... burn up those negatives and they'll get off our backs.
1:16:00 > 1:16:03Are you crazy? After all that work? Years and years of work.
1:16:03 > 1:16:05I've had it.
1:16:05 > 1:16:07Come on, there's no point any more.
1:16:07 > 1:16:09The lawyers, the money...
1:16:09 > 1:16:13I'm gonna get out of here and retire to Florida, sit in the sun and enjoy life.
1:16:13 > 1:16:16All this stuff's wearing me out.
1:16:16 > 1:16:18You needn't try to comfort me.
1:16:18 > 1:16:21I haven't come here on any but equal terms.
1:16:21 > 1:16:23You said, "Let's talk truthfully."
1:16:23 > 1:16:28Well, let's do. Unsparingly, truthfully, even shamelessly then.
1:16:28 > 1:16:31It's no longer a secret that I love you. It never was.
1:16:31 > 1:16:36I loved you as long ago as the time I asked you to read the stone angel's name with your fingers.
1:16:36 > 1:16:42Yes, I remember the long afternoons of our childhood, when I had to stay indoors to practice my music.
1:16:42 > 1:16:48and I heard the playmates calling you... "Johnny! Johnny!"
1:16:48 > 1:16:52Not bad. Not bad at all. Thanks for coming in.
1:16:54 > 1:16:58It's quite a treat to meet the notorious Bettie Page.
1:17:03 > 1:17:05Send the next one in.
1:17:25 > 1:17:28Let's get out of here, make a fresh start.
1:17:28 > 1:17:31Look at what this life is doing to you.
1:17:38 > 1:17:40Hey, Bettie.
1:17:40 > 1:17:47Bettie! Bettie? Bettie?
1:17:47 > 1:17:48Bettie.
1:18:18 > 1:18:21Sweetheart, do you want something to eat?
1:19:16 > 1:19:19PEOPLE SINGING HYMNS
1:19:46 > 1:19:49Oh, my God...
1:19:49 > 1:19:52tonight, I know that first things come first.
1:19:52 > 1:19:54And the most important thing of all.
1:19:54 > 1:19:58is that men and women and young people surrender their lives to Christ.
1:19:58 > 1:20:04God, don't let a mother's boy who heard me preach here tonight go to hell.
1:20:04 > 1:20:07Don't let a mother's girl who heard me tonight go to hell.
1:20:07 > 1:20:12Don't let a daddy or a mother who heard me preach tonight go to hell. Save them!
1:20:12 > 1:20:14ALL: Amen.
1:20:14 > 1:20:17Save them tonight...
1:20:17 > 1:20:18from all their sins.
