A term coined by fan magazines to describe Lana Turner's glamourous yet somehow ordinary all-American girl appeal (like the moniker she detested, The Sweater Girl), this video is a tribute to Lana and her "lanallure". I used clips starting with her debut until her last successful film in the mid-60s to show her longevity in the film industry and how she continued to be one of those movie stars that both men and women flocked to see. I guess the fact that her wardrobe always reflected the in styles at the time helped, but there was something very appealing about her that made filmgoers sympathize with her even in her times of trouble which were widely reported by the press of that time. Safe to say that "lanallure" still captivates the public, even now. Music by Dizzy Gillespie. Enjoy!
