Speaking of director Mary Harron, people may still remember her "American mentaldisorder " (American Psycho) a few years ago, which was rated NC-17 by The Motion Picture Association of America for its thrilling horror. The atmosphere and the pungent black irony caused an uproar at the time. The brutal bloody massacre and the cold-blooded perversion of the killer in the film made many people never dare to hang out late at night. This time, Mary Harron brings "The Notorious Bettie Page" which makes people look forward to it.
Combining the darkness of midnight and the light of day, Betty Page is a legend in the fashion world. She was born in a conservative family in the American State of Tennessee , as sweet as every girl next door, but fate brought her to the spotlight in front of the camera , making her confuse everyone's eyes. The Senate investigation has counterproductively pushed Betty to the status of America's erotic icon. Thousands of people frantically followed her imitations, dark skin, black hair, front bangs, until she mysteriously disappeared. Viewers can go back in time, guided by Mary Harron, to see how this quiet and shy southern girl shares her half-naked body with the American public in front of the camera. Of course, the film doesn't stop there. Betty's life and modeling career reflect the director's unique interpretation of sexual issues, religion and popular culture in the 1950s, a past America that is gone but still vaguely alive.
