Betty Grable - an extremely influential and important pin up girl of the 1940's.
In my music video I will use extracts of her life and make symbolic references to her relationship with Harry James.
A small section of this documentary is about the domestic abuse that Betty Grable suffered from her 2nd husband Harry James. I will convey this matter in my music video as my video is a political statement about the hardships of pin up girls in the 1940's and how they were supposed to 'keep smiling' throughout.
This image (left) is Betty Grable's most famous image. Her 'million dollar legs were what 'helped America win the war'. During the documentary above I found out that Betty Grable was pregnant here with her first child. This image was considered one of the most famous pin up girl images and has been compared to Marilyn Monroe's dress blowing shot. I will recreate this exact image in my music video to make a contextual reference to Betty Grable.
