Oh Gawd! I used to work with a gorgeous petite stunningly pretty little blond who looked like Verinica Lake; come to think of it, she was actually WAY prettier than Veronica but you get what I mean. Oh the lost opportunities!
Veronica was a crazy alcoholic bitch. Who knows how many degenerates had a go at defiling her over the years. Wonderful and exciting! Look at her bad teeth in the masterpiece Flesh Feast (1970). She wears them as a medal commemorating a life lived with gusto, an authentic life lived in alleyways and dumpsters . Beautiful!
Veronica's beauty is showcased magnificently in Flesh Feast (1970), during which she asks a gurney-strapped Adolf Hitler if he likes her little maggots. Sublime.
I think she was gratified to have an opportunity to display her love of country in play-acting the application of voracious maggots to Adolf Hitler's flesh. Too bad this wasn't a porn flick, she could have been masturbating too.
Veronica handles the maggots deftly because she had practice, while living in alleys around Union Station.
Look at that smile at 0:26!! Veronica Lake was beauty personified! She had the most magnificent skin, smile, "and most perfect set of legs in the business", Lake also brought mystery and whip-smart intelligence into her roles. When I first saw her, my jaw hit my feet, and this is balck & white, I'm all of 15 growing up in the late 80's...it was the Diner scene (Sullivan's Travels), she turns around and serves the "hobo". Ahhh. That face could have disarmed the entire army on both sides.
I assumed what Ms. Lake wore was called a French roll , as I never heard the hairstyle being called a victory roll , any way , good for her for what she did .
Veronica looks exactly like my mom when she was young and mom was a true rosie the riviter.The narrator sounds like Eugene (Ed) Kern could be wrong about that one though.
OHHH MY GODDD I wish I could see some chicks that looked like Veronica. DAMN IS SHE HOT. Most every girl now days dress slutty or weird. I think we need to go back to the 40s again. good times
Well, i look like shit but that's because I'm going hunting in about an hour, and I'm a guy so I'm not pretty and neat and all cleaned up all the time like the girls are but also if you are slutty or weird sorry if I offended you.
Your basic statement is you're a guy so don't have to look good, sorry no exemption. We like eye candy too. You say we look better, take better care of ourselves, yet think we're suppose to amp it up just for you. Who do you think you are? You wouldn't have a chance in the 40s. Women demanded respectful treatment then. Your attitude wouldn't sit well with a 40s woman. If we went back you would be alone. Perhaps you are anyway. Not worried if you think me slutty or weird so not offended.
I believe you have mistaken my comments...I respect wemon and I've been growing up in an enviroment where everyone, no matter who you are deserve respect. Yes, when I go to school every morning I shower and try to look good, and no I don't believe that wemon are supposed to amp it up just for us men. Some of the wemon I go to school with...It's hard to explain, I'm not sure if you know what I'm talking about or not, but I'm sure you get the general idea.
On a more serious note, I think it was a way for men to continue dictating to women from afar. And the Movie bosses who Ms Lake wouldn't sleep with made her cut her hair-in the end!
I had a cousin that was working in a factory, got her long hair stuck in a convayer (sorry I have no idea how to spell that) belt and got her scalp ripped off.
Veronica was such a beautiful young women. I was in love with her back in those good ol' days. Girls nowadays should try to be like REAL women such as Veronica Lake. Sorry boys, I had to delete my old comment because I spelled Veronica's name wrong.
Yikes, those 'safety caps' are dreadful! Safety is important but I recall seeing photos from the era showing that some women covered their hair with cleverly wrapped headscarves or turbans when working in war plants.
oh my! veronica's hair looks gorgeous here;) I mean the after-version of course. do any of you know how to make such hairstyle? if yes, may I ask for a tutorial or something?
Veronica Lake was really a true patriotic in the times of the war. She oftened help raised money to help the soldiers. Is very sad that today Veronica Lake had been forgotten.
That's sadly true, but her persona style came beyond her era, she's an icon. Renee Zellwegger, Kim Bassinger (L.A. Confidential),... Jessica Rabbit! and many others was inspired by her.
