Book Reviews of Betty Page Confidential
Book Review: Great photos
Summary: 4 Stars
This book was given to me as a gift from my boyfriend, love the pictures most of which are black and white. I did find a problem with a bit of the biography on Bettie being well researched. The pictures are great thought.Book Review: BETTY PAGE
Summary: 4 Stars
A LITTLE TRITE AND MUNDANE BY TODAYS STANDARDS, BUT VERY INFORMATIONAL AND SEXY.Book Review: A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words...
Summary: 3 Stars
The time-worn cliche "a picture is worth a thousand words" fittingly describes this book, because that is about all you get -- pictures. If you really want to know more about Bettie Page, you may be disappointed. It does offer many photos of this captivating pin-up vixen, but I was rather disappointed to find that all of them were black and white. It is a quick and easy read/look through. If you are looking for more detailed information about Bettie Page, or a picture book with nice glossy photos to set on your coffee table, this may not be the book for you. However, if you are a Bettie Page fan looking for a fun, entertaining no-brainer sort of book with lots of great photos, it is a worthwhile starting point.Book Review: Keep Turning the Page.
Summary: 3 Stars
I was slightly disappointed to find that this book was 95% pictures, all be it very nice paperback prints of the pictures. It is a worth while buy if you don't have an extensive collection of Betty Page pictures. There are a few pages collecting the publication dates of magazines that featured Betty in someway and a few pages noting the filmshorts she did with Irvin Klaw etc.I didn't spot any out of the ordinary pictures in the book, mostly the kind that turn up in the card collector sets with a couple of candid shots showing the filming crew. Not a bad book over all but not so much a read as a flick though picture book.
Book Review: pics of a real woman...finally
Summary: 3 Stars
The book is ok...lots of pics. Not a fan of her "surprised" look or the silly stuff. Then again that's not my style. I like Betty for the simple fact she shows a real woman's body. Not airbrushed, not edited, you can see the pics of her on the boat or by the ferris wheel that her, how should I say it..."backside" has small dimples and lines. That of a human being, not a photoshopped plastic image of today. Keep it Real! I was going to return it but I flipped thru it again and decided to keep it. It's a good reality check when I start to feel frumpy that I'm not meant to be flawless, I'm meant to be a woman.
