Propaganda

Julie Newmar (Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, The Marriage-Go-Round, Lil Abner)— Lil' Abner came out in 1959. I was 8. And Julie Newmar as Stupefyin Jones - the "deadly weapon guaranteed to stupefy any human male" stepped out and struck her pose, my eyes were opened to a whole new set of possibilities.

Yoshiko Yamaguchi (Scandal, Sayon's Bell, House of Bamboo)—Coluratura soprano, actress, journalist, and politician! She plays opposite Hot Vintage Man Winner Toshiro Mifune in the movie Scandal and is so gorgeous and talented.

This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Julie Newmar:

She's the tall, stately one (Dorcas). I'm not saying seven women in corsets dancing and singing made me a lesbian but I'm not /not/ saying that.

She kicked ass as Catwoman but also sang and dance in a corset in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers and looked terrific either way.

Scandal (1950)

צחור־שושן

זה נהיה קטע ביתר־שאת להאשים את ישראל בגניבה תרבותית, להפוך את המלה ”ישראל�� לפועל שפרושו גזל במצח נחושה, אז החלטתי לומר שאם ככה אז ככה ולכתוב גרסה עברית לאחד השירים האהובים עלי, שבעוונותיו הוא של קולוניאליסטית יפנית שהפכה לתומכת חסרת בושה של אש״ף (קשה לשבור הרגלים), מתוך ידיעה שהיא תתהפך בקברה כי הגרסה שלי יותר טובה. אשמח אם מישהו (עם עדיפות למישהי) יקליטו את השיר.

Be the Jew they think you are.

הָרוּחַ מִדָּרוֹם קְרִירָה, הַזַּהֲבָן אוֹמֵר שִׁירָה וּבַחֲלוֹם מְלֵא־פְרָחִים – רַק לָהּ, פְּרִיחָה צְחוֹרָה, רֵיחַ בַּכֹּל נִזְרָה.

אוֹר־לַיִל זֶה הַכֹּל כִּסָּה, וְזַהֲבָן קוֹלוֹ יִשָּׂא, אַךְ טוֹב מִכֹּל – חֲלוֹם נִפְלָא יָבוֹא לְעֵת אִישַׁן, שִׁיר לִפְרִיחַת שׁוֹשַׁן.

צְחוֹר־שׁוֹשַׁן – שִׁירָתִי לְךָ, צְחוֹר־שׁוֹשַׁן – טֶרֶם נָס לֵחָהּ; אֲהָהּ, בַּחֲלוֹם דְּמוּתְךָ פֶּתַע מַבְלִיחָה…

@hotvintagepoll crucial propaganda for a glamorous singing queen

stumbled upon this amazing 1080p quality clip of Yoshiko Yamaguchi singing Fragrance of the Night (夜來香) in her final film A Holiday in Tokyo (1958) that i feel compelled to share

the movie is directed by Kajiro Yamamoto (Kurosawa's mentor) and famously features an all-star cast from the toho studio, including Toshiro Mifune, Setsuko Hara, Takashi Shimura, and many more. i mean, literally every supporting role/cameo in this film was an A-list japanese movie star, a true tribute to Yoshiko's incredible 20-year career

in this performance, Yoshiko slips seamlessly between perfect japanese and chinese while showcasing her gorgeous soprano skills. the song remains a staple in today's classical mandarin repertoire

12 hours left to vote for Yoshiko Yamaguchi here!
