Description de l'ouvrage:
When it came to beautiful women, the Hollywood movie industry had more than most other places in the world. To be beautiful was to have a chance to become a Star. So gorgeous women by the tens of thousands poured into Hollywood, sure that, in a short time, they’d be Tinseltown’s hottest new discovery. Of all these thousands, perhaps a hundred or so made it. Among these, seven, in the opinion of the author, are outstanding for their beauty. This volume is devoted to these seven gossiped about, envied Beauties of Hollywood’s Golden Age. They are: Elizabeth Taylor: violet eyes, black hair, the perfect face; Grace Kelly: cool, blonde, regal-looking; Kay Francis: tall, dark, sultry; Ava Gardner: black hair, green eyes; Jean Harlow: the original blonde bombshell; Dolores Del Rio: the ultimate in Mexican aristocracy; Lana Turner: blonde hair, blue eyes, “the sweater girl.” Here, in seven revealing portraits are expansive accounts of their colorful lives and impressive acting careers. This volume, which includes detailed filmographies of these Hollywood sensations, is a testament and major reference source for these iconic film stars.
