Bettie Page - Begehrt und berüchtigt (2006)
Die ebenso schöne wie smarte Bettie Page wächst in Nashville auf, wo sie von ihrem Vater missbraucht, später von ihrem Mann geschlagen und dann auch noch von einer Gruppe junger Männer (gegen Bezahlung!) vergewaltigt wird. Doch die mit einer natürlichen Fröhlichkeit gesegnete junge Dame lässt sich ihre gute Laune keineswegs vermiesen und zieht nach New York, um Schauspielerin zu werden. Ihre Bühnenkarriere will jedoch nicht so recht vorankommen. Doch dafür wird sie schnell zu einem gefeierten Fotomodell. Allerdings sind es keine prüden Modefotos, womit Bettie zur meistfotografierten Frau der 50er Jahre wird, sondern Pin-Up-Bilder. Und obwohl sie wie die sprichwörtliche Unschuld vom Lande aussieht, spezialisiert sie sich innerhalb dieses Bereiches auch noch schnell auf Kinky Stuff. Bettie lässt sich abwechselnd als Dominatrix und als Damsel in Distress ablichten und wird somit zum ersten bekannten Fetisch- und Bondage-Modell überhaupt ...
