''Harlow'' is a fictionalized drama based on the life of film star Jean Harlow, released in 1965 with Carol Lynley in the title role. It was released shortly before Paramount Pictures' own film on the same subject. This was Ginger Rogers' last film appearance. ==Plot== Noticing a beautiful girl in the background of a Laurel and Hardy film, actor Marc Peters tips off studio mogul Jonathan Martin, who arranges a screen test. Jean Harlow is an overnight success. Harlow isn't a trained thespian and is mocked by experienced actor William Mansfield, but she is sexy and she's got something audiences respond to that makes her a Hollywood star. Unfortunately for her, she's also got a mother, Mama Jean, who quickly capitalizes on her daughter's money and fame. Family and studio demands unnerve Harlow, as does her impulsive wedding to Paul Bern, who turns out to be impotent and suicidal. Harlow has many unhappy affairs and becomes depressed. But the veteran actress Marie Dressler persuades her to take her profession more seriously, so Harlow goes back East to study her craft. When she returns home, Hollywood mogul Louis B. Mayer is impressed, as is Mansfield, who also begins falling in love with her. Harlow, however, contracts a serious illness, and at the tender age of 26, she is gone. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harlow (Magna film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
