‘Bettie Page Reveals All’ Documentary Makes World Premiere at Viva Las Vegas

‘BETTIE PAGE REVEALS ALL’ DOCUMENTARY BY MARK MORI MAKES ITS
WORLD PREMIERE AT THE FILM FESTIVAL DURING VIVA LAS VEGAS
WITH SPECIAL GUEST CLAIRE SINCLAIR

The highly-anticipated film “Bettie Page Reveals All” directed by Academy Award nominated documentary filmmaker and Emmy winning TV producer Mark Mori made its world premiere during the film festival at this year’s Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekender in Las Vegas on Friday, April 6.

Joining Mori on the red carpet at the Century Orleans Theatre was special guest and 2011 Playboy Playmate of the Year Claire Sinclair, along with Robin Leach, “Absinthe” star Melody Sweets, legendary burlesque dancer Tempest Storm, Miss Rockabilly Rumble Michele Gannon and Bettie Page Clothing Designer/CEO Tatyana Khomyakova. A host of pinup beauties also lit up the red carpet, including Secrets In Lace models Bettina May, Coco Lectric, LouLou D’Vil and Ms. Redd, as well as burlesque models Angelique Noire, Ludella Hahn, Ruby Joule, Tiffany Tutor and Vintage Vandalizm.

Thanks to Mori’s documentary, the world at last gets to hear Page’s story, narrated by Page herself in the years prior to her death at age 85 in 2008. The compelling 100-minute film was authorized by the famed former pinup as the only film biography on her life. Fans that were unable to attend the screenings can purchase a DVD online at www.bettiepagerevealsall.com.

Shooting to fame in the 1950s with her fetish modeling and racy pinup photos, Bettie Page continues to enchant and inspire multiple generations of women (who continue to emulate her jet black hair, blue eyes and trademark bangs) and men (who long for her). But the story behind her allure, the real person underneath that timeless youthful, sexy image, has been a mystery for the ages—until now.

“Bettie Page Reveals All” offers an intimate look at the rise, fall and resurrection of one of the world’s most recognized and controversial sex symbols. The film, which was co-produced by Mark Roesler with the participation of CMG, and Bettie Page, LLC, includes appearances by Rebecca Romijn, Tricia Helfer, Tempest Storm, Sam Menning, Rev. Robert Schuller, Joey Arias and photographers who worked with Bettie, ex-husband Harry Lear, auto designer Richard Arbib and Brigadier General and Nixon Advisor Charles West.
