Another Early Beauty

Also notable:

Ernestine Jane Geraldine Russell (June 21, 1921 – February 28, 2011[SUP][3][/SUP]) was an American film actress, and was one of Hollywood's leading sex symbols in the 1940s and 1950s.
In 1940, Russell was signed to a seven-year contract by film mogul Howard Hughes

Russell's measurements were 38D-24-36, and she stood 5 ft 7 in (97-61-91 cm and 1.7 meters), making her more statuesque than most of her contemporaries. Her favorite co-star Bob Hope once introduced her as "the two and only Jane Russell". He joked, "Culture is the ability to describe Jane Russell without moving your hands." Howard Hughes said, "There are two good reasons why men go to see her. Those are enough." A publicity still for the movie showed her lying on a pile of straw, her blouse wide open showing ample cleavage and stretched tight across her voluptuous breasts. Her right hand was behind her head of black hair and her left hand held a revolver.[SUP][9][/SUP]




Russell in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)

Hughes was rumored to have had er.... interludes with most of the leading "ladies" he introduced. Loved what he did, building airplanes, making movies, living life. suspected of un-American activities by the very government which depended strongly on his enterprises to help win WW-II. imp
 
Falcon, I put your link in the address bar and saw that it was the same video posted recently in this thread, so I merged your thread. I agree that a lot of time was put into that video, fun to watch. :)
 
I love Rita. I have seen over 20 of her movies, wished I could have met her.
Her real name was Canseco. She began her career as a dancer.
My favorite movies are Lady from Shanghai and Gilda. She once said
that all her men wanted to go to bed with Gilda (her sexy role) and wound up
with me.
