"The Notorious Bettie Page" might be called a bio-pic devoted to a body—Gretchen Mol’s body, which is seen in every degree of cladding, from [full] to scanty to blissfully naked. 



Mol plays Page, a real-life pinup queen of the nineteen-fifties, who appeared in coy nudie-cutie magazines like Bachelor and Wink and in highly unconvincing and frequently out-of-focus lesbian bondage movies with titles like "Sally’s Punishment." 



As the naughty girl next door, in black lace and stiletto heels, she [domesticated] fetishism and flouted the postal [laws]. Page, who is still alive, was quite a celebrity in her day, until she abruptly disappeared, in 1957, into a life devoted to Jesus.
