| Description: | Various women pose, apply makeup or have make-up applied to them. 1950s glamour, some of these gals are Liz Taylor look-alikes. Very defined eyebrows (drawn with eyebrow pencil), bright lipstick. Makeup brand seems to be "Lady Esther." Some of the women pose looking at the camera, then an off-screen woman's hand comes into frame and seems to be pointing out various facial features of the models. Random shots: Young teen girl stands with tennis racquet at the ready, as if waiting for a ball (which never comes). Young women chat at a dinner table. Woman dries her face at giant blow dryer. Lady Esther cosmetics roll along assembly line. Glamorous woman wearing red dress and pearl necklace descends staircase, greets off-screen male admirer with a big smile - like a hostess greeting a very welcome party guest, or a woman greeting her date. Many takes, some where she starts out of focus and comes into focus plane. CU woman pressing her cheek against man's as they embrace. Upper-class romance. | |
