I submitted this because I have a Lollita complex.

As far as I know, this is the only filmed instance of Mae West doing ncensored Mae West material.. It's sad that she couldn't have done this just a few years earlier. In Myra Breckenridge (1970) she was 75, and remarkably intact. But I think it's wonderful that we have this. It was a play originally, and I think that it must have worked a whole lot better on the stage. Earlier in her career, she wrote a play that got her arrested.

This is a woman who, when the segregated hotel she was staying in wouldn't admit the handsome black athlete she was possibly fucking, resolved the issue by buying the hotel. She was more awesome at 83 than you (or I) will ever be, or ever dream of being.

We're sorry, currently our stars can only be received outside the United States.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2012-06-29

Sorry. That's why I mentioned Hulu in the submission title. I'm told there's a way to get around that with a proxy, but I don't know how that works.

Me neither, and I don't care to that much. I just like to point out every time the Internet is censored or limited somehow.

I live in the US and can watch it just fine. My ad blocker won't let me see the commercials tough, instead I just get blissful silence for a few minutes.

5 for Mae West & Whole Movie week on Poetv.

She was 85 here. 85. And that's an atrocious wig.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2012-06-29

Wait. That's a wig?

Um, yes. Very old women often end up needing some kind of hair stunt-double. Some younger women too, but that's generally due to illness of some kind.

(sigh)

Still not seeing my added tag "Oldest Bond girl".

What the fuck did I just watch?

Mae West neither retiring nor changing her schtick.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2012-07-01

Goddamn right.


John Holmes Motherfucker - 2012-07-01

She was facing death, and she knew it. You don't change horses at the finish line. After 45 years, she was finally telling her dirty jokes without studio interference. Maybe you don't appreciate it, but I'm sure that to her, it was a final bit of necessary business.

And I'll bet that it was great as a play.
