Bad Girls: Film Fatales, Sirens, And Molls
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Blinded by desire, crazed with jealousy, and ripe with sin, the B movie bad girls of the big screen starred in sexy suspense thrillers during film's golden age. These luscious, lascivious ladies broke female stereotypes as they antagonized with a vengeance, hiding guns in their garters and knives in their hair. Featuring an interview with Angie Dickinson, BAD GIRLS: FILM FATALES, SIRENS, AND MOLLS presents vintage movie posters and publicity stills from movies like Gun Crazy, Sin and Desire, and Blonde Savage. Working with scant scripts, these gals relied on their beauty, bodies, and female prowess to carve their own niche in the male world of moviemaking. Vaulted in Hollywood's archives, these actresses and the movies they starred in have developed a cult following. Prized for their campy quality and overacting, these bad girls redefined the Hollywood girl-next-door ideal and paved the walk of fame for villainous vixens to come.
