'NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE' TO KICK-OFF CINEKINK NYC FILM FESTIVAL
Wednesday, October 18th - 6:30 pm
See it one more time on the big screen with other Bettie fans!
Come out for the CineKink NYC season opener film, NOTORIOUS BETTIE
PAGE, which recreates the blazing course of the infamous pin-up girl,
Bettie Page, who grew up in a conservative religious family in
Tennessee and went on to became a photo model sensation in 1950s New
York City. After falling in with photographers Irving and Paula Klaw,
who thought to put her in thigh-high boots with a riding crop in her
hand, Bettie Page's legendary fetish poses made her the target of a
senate investigation into pornography - and transformed her into an
icon who continues to enthrall fans to this day. (Directed by Mary
Harron, 2006, USA, 86 minutes. Starring Gretchen Mol, Lili Taylor,
Jonathan M. Woodward and David Strathairn.)
NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE is preceded by the internet music video
sensation, DO YOU TAKE IT?, featuring the Wet Spots (Directed by Kirby
Ferguson, 2006, USA, 3 minutes).
