Silent Movie Star Clara Bow "The It Girl" - the original "Jazz-Baby". |
Nifty footage from the Twenties of those wacky flappers. |
An informative segment from an admired documentary about Hollywood silent films featuring the difficulties Clara Bow dealt with when the flapper era began to fade and sound was introduced to audiences. |
What Edward VIII was to men's clothing, what Alvin York was to Doughboys; so Louise Brooks was to the flappers. She was the gold standard; she set the bar high and all comers had to cow-tow. |
A nice slide show of both color and black & white flapper pics set to a well-preserved recording of "Let's Misbehave" by Cole Porter. |
