Thank you, I was hoping someone would save this intro on youtube!! Nice little tribute to the very underrated blonde bombshell Cleo Moore. I love how Muller correctly noted there were FOUR famous "M" blondes of the 50's - Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, Mamie Van Doren, and Cleo Moore (Mamie always just refers to "Three" when commenting on her contemporaries). There are few minor inaccurate comments - Congo Bill was made for Columbia not RKO, Cleo was not from a family "entrenched" in Louisiana politics (a incorrect claim made on one of the web's bios of her) but just average middle-class people though of course as noted she did briefly become a member of the famous Long family, tmaybe one or two others but these are very minor and I'm happy to see Cleo getting a showcase on TCM and IMO in her very best film

Cleo Moore - I get the feeling that when she wasn't available, too expensive ot not interested, Barbara Nichols was the next choice.

Sure, women were much more overtly sexualized to compete with TV, but it also reflected a change in the public, which became much more tolerant of such personalities.
