That is the start of "Attack Of The 50 Foot Woman," the 1958 classic that I hope you will join me for tomorrow night, girls, at Chelsea Classics, with Hedda Lettuce, because this is going to be a hoot!!!!!!!!!! I mean, Yvette Vickers alone! Gay boys growing up in the 60's. who watched this on TV, learned all about how to be a slut from Yvette!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And that scene, when they discover she has grown, the size of the hand, and the screaming nurse! I am telling you, it is the best. Not to mention some the dialogue, which would make Joseph L. Mankiewicz, who wrote "All About Eve," wished he had written this--
" Nancy (bellowing): I know where my husband is; he's
with that blonde!"
And Yvette, as Honey--"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaary, whaaaaaaaaat's goooooooooing ooooooooooooooon??????????????"
They just don't write them like that, anymore!
And here is Yvette, showing everyone how to be a slut! As Cole Porter said, "Then get up, and shake that halo!" No one shook it, like Yvette!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And, if you want to see that nurse I was talking about, take a look at the famous introduction to "Chiller Theatre," which Channel 11 ran every Saturday night from 7:30PM to 9:00PM, in the Sixties!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to see you at Chelsea tomorrow night, girls, to meet, and greet, you all!!!!!!!!!
