| Description: | VENUS UP-TO-DATE Good item about a beauty contest where girls' vital statistics are measured and they pose in bikinis. United States MLS men in white coats stand examining a row of young women wearing what looks like white underwear. (Later in closer shot one can see that they're wearing identical short shorts of terrycloth or something and bikini tops.) One man is measuring the legs of the first woman in the line, another man writes down the measurements and another guy. MCU man wraps measuring tape around woman's hips. Pan up as he measures her waist, then her bust, then her neck. MS row of women face camera; the men walk along behind them and seem to now be examining their backs. The last girl on the right is wearing a one-piece suit. Finally, MS panning from toe to head up the body of the 19-year-old winner of the contest as she turns around for the camera; big palm tree in BG. | |
