written by Nyla at on 02.04. at 19:49:39 The closing scene of the 1959 John Wayne classic Rio Bravo features (believe it or not) a remarkable tights-centered episode. Angie Dickinson appears in an erotic dancehall-girl outfit-- a lacey bodysuit and black tights. (She refers to them repeatedly as tights, although in modern terms, they're more like semi-opaque pantyhose.) Wayne's character forbids her to appear in public like that, so Dickinson goes behind a screen and changes, draping the tights over it alluringly... and then the good part: she picks up the tights and waves them at him, offering to keep them to wear just for him. (What a nice proposition!) The Duke, however, wants none of them-thar erotic perversions, so out the window go the tights. Down in the street, they are retreived by none other than Walter Brennan, who heads off into the sunset with Dickinson's lovely black tights draped over his shouders-- leaving it to the audience's imagination as to just what old Walt plans to do with them in the privacy of the ol' bunkhouse... It only goes to show that tights erotica can turn up in the gol-darndest places! Happy trails to you, from Nyla Answers to this message: |
