Jane Russell 1949 Film star in London Voluptuous sex symbol
Jane Russell 1949
Film star in London
Voluptuous sex symbol and star of Hollywood films, TV and nightclubs. Russell was the daughter of an actress. She worked as a receptionist and model, and studied theater at Max Reinhardts Theatrical workshop and with Maria Ouspenskaya. Endowed with a large bust she won the lead role in Howard Hughes " The Outlaw" (1941) after Hughes conducted a nationwide search for a busty actress. The film caused a storm of controversy due primarily to the amount of cleavage shown by Russell on screen and after brief releases in 1941 and 1943 it was not officially released until 1950. The controversy brought Russell much publicity, often in the form of off-colour, sophomoric jokes. However, she surpassed her mindless bimbo image and went on to perform with versatality in a number of films during the subsequent three decades, including comedies with Bob Hope and musicals with Marylin Monroe. She often played cynical " tough broads". She starred in the Broadway musical " Company" in 1971. TV viewers will remember her for a series of bra commercials in the seventies

Jane Russell 1949: A Timeless Icon of Hollywood Glamour and Versatility In this photo print, we are transported back to the golden era of cinema as we behold the enchanting Jane Russell. The year is 1949, and London is abuzz with excitement as this voluptuous sex symbol graces its streets. Born into a world of showbiz, Russell's destiny was written in the stars. From her humble beginnings as a receptionist and model, she honed her craft at Max Reinhardts Theatrical workshop and under the tutelage of Maria Ouspenskaya. However, it was Howard Hughes who discovered her undeniable talent when he embarked on an extensive search for an actress with ample curves to lead his controversial film "The Outlaw" (1941). Russell's portrayal caused quite a stir due to the daring display of cleavage on screen. This controversy catapulted her into the limelight, albeit accompanied by off-color jokes that failed to capture her true essence. Undeterred by such mindless labeling, she defied expectations time and again throughout three decades in Hollywood. From sharing comedic chemistry with Bob Hope to dazzling audiences alongside Marilyn Monroe in musicals, Russell showcased remarkable versatility beyond being typecast as just another tough broad. Her talents extended even onto Broadway stages when she took center stage in "Company" (1971). While television viewers may fondly recall her iconic bra commercials from the seventies, let us not forget that Jane Russell remains an enduring symbol of timeless beauty and talent—a true legend etched forever within Memory Lane Prints.
