| Summary |
Classic, bawdy, seductive and witty, Mae West is one of the most iconic actresses in motion picture history. Notorious for pushing the envelope with her suggestive innuendos and racy persona, she is often cited as a major contributor to the enforcement of the strict Production Code in 1934 that would change the way movies were made for decades to follow. Mae West: The Essential Collection features 9 of her best films including her debut with George Raft in Night After Night ; She Done Him Wrong and I'm No Angel both co-starring Cary Grant ; Belle of the Nineties and her only collaboration with W.C. Fields, My Little Chickadee. Filled with comedy, romance, drama, music and some of the wittiest dialogue ever captured on film, this unforgettable collection highlights the true essence of one of the most influential actresses of the last century. |
