If you missed the premiere of our Screen Classics Discussion video event, you can watch it here on YouTube:

About the book: In the early 1950s, Jane Russell (1921–2011) should have been forgotten. Her career began with what is arguably the most notorious advertising campaign in cinema history that invited moviegoers, Howard Hughes’ The outlaw (1943) and “Wrangle with Russell”. In the 1940s she was nicknamed “Actress Without Moving Images” and only had three films in theaters. With such a slow, unfortunate start, most aspiring actresses would have given up or faded away. Instead, Russell made a place for himself in Hollywood and became a memorable and enduring star. Christina Rice offers the first biography of the actress and activist, perhaps best known for her role in Gentlemen prefer blondes (1953). She has worked with some of Hollywood’s most talented directors – including Howard Hawks, Raoul Walsh, Nicholas Ray and Josef von Sternberg – and stood her ground alongside co-stars like Marilyn Monroe, Robert Mitchum, Clark Gable, Vincent Price and Bob Hope. She also learned to fight back against Howard Hughes, her boss for more than 35 years, and his marketing campaigns that took advantage of her looks. This stunning first bio offers a fresh perspective on a star whose legacy endures not only because she forged a remarkable film career, but also because she has effectively used her celebrity to benefit others.

Please note that only participants from the United States (excluding the territory of Puerto Rico) and Canada are eligible.

Good luck!
