Product Description

She starred in over 100 films, and at one point was the highest-paid performer in Hollywood. But it seems she will always be better known for her legs! Her pin-up inspired millions of American GIs in World War II. The classic image of the beautiful long-legged woman appeared on everything from footlockers to airplanes. Yet she played as important a role in the history of Hollywood as she did in the war effort. In this definitive BIOGRAPHY, interviews with friends Alice Faye, Debbie Reynolds, and Carol Burnett illustrate the life and personality of Betty Grable. Spectacular film footage of the Technicolor queen shows why she was the number one box office star of the '40s. And never-before-seen outtakes of the star at work offer a view behind the pin-up. Join BIOGRAPHY for the complete story of Betty Grable whose legs helped win the war, and whose talent conquered Hollywood.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEHIND THE PIN UP BETTY GRABLE, October 15, 2006

By	BETTY GRABLE "mame dennis" (everywere 747 fly to) - See all my reviews

Betty grable, more than a Pin Up, an icon a hollywood moneymaker, who for over ten straight years one of the top ten box office stars!, the likes of Garland, Gene Kelly, Rita Hayworth never appeared in the top ten lists, but Betty Grable did, she was also Queen of Technicolor ! , The Girl with the Million Dollar Legs, from her starring role in "Down Argentine way" in 1940 untill "Three For The Show" in 1955 she left the movies that year then to television, nightclubs and Las Vegas casinos where she was one of the biggest draws! and when Martha Raye was destroying the box office of "Hello Dolly!" on Broadway David Merrick begged Grable to take the lead, she did and with Betty in the role the box office doubled!!!
yes more than a Pin Up, more than a pair of legs, an icon a true Hollywood Star ! , Betty Grable 1916 - 1973
