I've seen "The Outlaw" in later years and now it seems pretty tame compared to other movies but I know the hype around it when it first came out was scandalous.Emma > From: dback1935@msn.com > To: memory-lane@rootsweb.com > Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2011 10:52:50 -0700 > Subject: Re: [ML] Jane Russell dies > > > I remember all of the hype when her first picture "The Outlaw" was released. One of the first theaters to show the film was here in Phoenix. Howard Hughes hired one of the Goodyear blimps that had a message board on the outside. It flew all around the city (at night) for days before the film opened and every night during it's run. > I think it ran for at least a week, maybe two. I was only 10 or 11 years old (maybe 12) so I didn't see the film then and to this day I haven't seen it. I did see Gentlemen Prefer Blondes with Marilyn Monroe. I also saw the one she made with Clark Gable and another one with Jeff Chandler. I will have to see how many of these are available from Netflix. > > Robert E Paty, Scottsdale, AZ aka Mad Hatter > > > > > From: roses4831@msn.com > > To: memory-lane@rootsweb.com > > Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2011 09:02:52 -0800 > > Subject: [ML] Jane Russell dies > > > > > > Jane Russell died yesterday.
