BLONDE VENUS

Presented by Austin Film Society at AFS Cinema, Austin TX

May 16 - 20 2023
BLONDE VENUS

“If BLONDE VENUS is essentially a one-woman show, it is still one of the best examples of the genre… by the end she has managed to move the audience with with an uncompromising affirmation of her fearless femaleness…” – Andrew Sarris

In desperate need of money to pay for her husband’s medical treatment, a former nightclub entertainer, played by Marlene Dietrich, returns to the stage as the tough and titillating Blonde Venus, whose signature number involves her doing a striptease while wearing a full gorilla costume. This film was banned for decades after the Production Code was imposed in 1934.
