There is something about
Bettie Page that's slightly offputting. She's rather like Jane Russell: she has a face with its fangs bared. Don't get us wrong; if either lady in her prime asked us out for the evening we wouldn't plead a headache. But that something offputting makes us believe they'd be more likely to scratch and bite a man than purr with him.
It may not help either that ten thousand publicists are always turning her into a trend, or when Jerry "SIEG HEIL!" Yang and Terry "MR. WARNER BROS." Semel torture us with a promotional campaign.
