Pretty Things

Zorita. Betty Rowland. Sherry Britton. Dixie Evans. Lois de Fee. Once upon a time, these names conjured up impossible fantasies for nearly every red-blooded male in America. They were the burlesque stars of the 1940s through 1960s, whose elegant performances left little - but just enough - to the viewer's imagination. Liz Goldwyn grew up a huge fan of these long-forgotten Queens of Burlesque. Now, in this revealing new documentary, she reaches out to her idols in an attempt to "walk in their shoes."
