Even today, years after her death, the actress and author is still regarded as the pop archetype of sexual wantonness and ribald humor. But who was this saucy starlet, a woman who was controversial enough to be jailed, pursued by film censors and banned from the airwaves for the revolutionary content of her work, and yet would ascend to the status of film legend?Siftin...

La presente recopilación recoge algunas de s...

Collected for the first time are some of the most revealing, amusing, and rare interviews covering Mae West's ten-year career in movies. West's celluloid image was explosive and trendsetting, but her outspoken and progressive thoughts about women and sexuality shocked and seduced the public. Her feminist riffs and screenplays made her a cultural icon for sexuality and social subversion. In the 1930s, she was not only considered scandalous, but positively dangerous. In a male dominated indu...

Mae West was perhaps the most unique female actress of any age of films, in that she became the product of her mind's eye. Neither the film studios she worked at nor her fans created her, Mae did that herself. She dictated in what she appeared, how she appeared, what her dialogue was, and how her scenes were directed. In no single instance did an actress ever have such power.Mae established a persona of "forever sexy" but she did it solely with the illusion of being sexy. And altho...
