Propaganda

Hazel Scott (Broadway Rhythm, Rhapsody in Blue)—ok ok let me tell you about Hazel Scott. She was a Trinidadian piano genius. By the age of 3 she could play the piano by ear. She would play jazzed-up versions of classics in nightclubs and could sing too! She appeared in five movies, and used her influence as a piano prodigy to improve Black representation in film—she turned down offensive parts, demanded equal pay, and always wore her own costumes to ensure she was portrayed as glamorous and beautiful. She was the first African-American woman to host her own television show, The Hazel Scott Show. She stood up for civil rights and was an overall icon! If you want to watch her being a genius, here she is playing two pianos at once. And here's this one that shows off her consummate glamor! [videos beneath the cut]

Ella Raines (Hail the Conquering Hero, The Suspect, Phantom Lady, The Web)— When she first appears on screen in Impact (1949) she's mistaken for a young man--she's dressed in mechanic overalls while fixing an automobile--but then she looks up, flashing the leading man with her piercing eyes (green according to IMDb) and his life (and mine) is never the same again. [53:23 in this clip]

This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

This beautiful necklace has been worn at least three times over the years. In 1946 it was seen in Black Angel, where it was worn by June Vincent as Catherine Bennett. In 1947 it appeared on Ella Raines as Clarissa “Rissa” Fortune in Time Out of Mind. The necklace appeared a third time, sometime in the 1940s, worn by Rita Corday in a publicity photo.
