Veronica Lake photographed by George Hurrell for This Gun For Hire, 1942.
Not since the late Jean Harlow launched the platinum-blonde fad in 1930 had the movies produced such a trichological sensation. Veronica Lake’s hair has been acclaimed by men, copied, by girls, cursed by their mothers and viewed with alarm by moralists. It is called the “strip-tease style,” the “sheep-dog style” and the “bad-girl style” (though few except nice girls wear it), but to most moviegoers it is simply “the Veronica Lake style.” - LIFE Magazine, 24th November 1941.

Noirvember 26: This Gun for Hire (1942)
"You are trying to make me go soft. Well, you can save it. I don't go soft for anybody . . . I'm my own police."
A ruthless hitman named Raven--who happens to be kind to children and cats--is paid off in marked bills by his treasonous "employer." The story takes a turn, though, when the hitman and potential victim form an alliance against a common enemy.
