Item Details
Description
This production set piece featuring a photograph of Rita Landre by Harrison Marks.It was designed by the CEO of Filthy Gorgeous Media, and created in house for a film tentatively titled: "Miss Filthy Gorgeous." Directed by fashion photographer Indrani. Trailers and previews are available on the Filthy Gorgeous Media website. The Panels were used during filming in 2013. The images used are originally from George Harrison Marks' Cheesecake Pin-up collection.Artist:
George Harrison Marks was an English glamour photographer and director of nudist, and later, pornographic films, who was active in these fields for several decades. Marks founded the Kamera group of magazines with model and actress Pamela Green. Marks was also the photographic consultant for the film Peeping Tom, which featured Green in a cameo role.In 1958, as an offshoot of his magazines, Marks began making short films of his models undressing and posing topless, for the 8 mm film market. These were popularly known as "glamour home movies". An episode of the BBC's Balderdash and Piffle attributed the earliest use of the word "glamour" as a euphemism for nude modelling/photography to Marks' 1958 publicity materials. One Marks 8mm glamour film was The Window Dresser (1961), in which Pamela Green starred as a cat burglar who hides from the law by posing as a display mannequin in a lingerie shop. Marks appears in the film as the shop's owner; Green performs a striptease in the store's display window. Clips from The Window Dresser were used in a 1964 piece on the glamour film scene in the Rediffusion programme This Week. These clips showed Pamela Green fully unclothed; the ensuing controversy resulted in Green having to defend the film on the BBC Light Programme's Woman's Hour. After a judge threw out an obscenity charge against The Window Dresser, Marks continued to make 8 mm glamour films throughout the 1960s.
