Born Debralee Griffin on August 19, 1933 in Denver Colorado, Debra Paget’s acting career began as a teenager, making her film debut at 15 in Cry of the City (1948).

Bonus Hot Shots of the Week: Theresa Randle

My love for lingerie-clad Theresa Randle adjusting her stockings and garter belts in Abel Ferrara’s King of New York has been documented before.

What I’ve Been Watching: October 2024

Before starting this jam post I quick double-checked the math and, yup, it’s been about fourteen months since my one and only “What I’ve Been Watching” post. Boy howdy, where’d the time go? I had planned to do these semi-regularly (like, every few months maybe?), but the first one took so long to write and … Continue reading What I’ve Been Watching: October 2024 →
