Beauty

1977

A man disguised as a pin-up girl, alone in a room, satirizes the sex symbol of the pussycat. He poses like Marilyn Monroe, he licks his lips like Mae West and Hedy Lamarr, he masturbates. The effect of clichés of "manufactured femininity" on the masses is laughable, but it also makes you think.
