This is a strange film. It's supposed to be the true story of the final years of Bettie Page's career, 1955 to 1958, but it provides very little information. It seems to be an excuse to recreate some of Bettie's best known films. These remakes are good, very true to detail, but what's the point? They offer nothing new. Any true Bettie Page fan would rather watch the originals, despite the scratches. If anybody wants to find out more about Bettie I would recommend "The Notorious Bettie Page", made a year later in 2005. I'll review it later this year.
