흥미로운 사실
Harlow is a 1965 American biographical drama film directed by Gordon Douglas about the life of film star Jean Harlow. It stars Carroll Baker in the title role and Raf Vallone, Red Buttons, Angela Lansbury, Peter Lawford, Mike Connors, Martin Balsam and Leslie Nielsen in supporting roles.
Production
The concept of depicting Jean Harlow on film had originated in the 1950s. Many actresses were reported to have been cast as Harlow in different biopics, such as Cleo Moore for Columbia and Jayne Mansfield for Fox, but both of these projects fell through. In 1962, Fox announced that Marilyn Monroe would play Harlow in a lavish biopic under her new contract.
Based in part on Irving Shulman's pulp biography Harlow: An Intimate Biography, Paramount's Harlow serves a melodramatic look at Harlow's life, focusing on her failed marriages. Levine had purchased the rights to the biography for $100,000.
At the time of her casting, actress Carroll Baker had been in the midst of an embittered feud with producer Joseph E. Levine, who also served as her manager. Baker had previously agreed to star in a Harlow biopic for Columbia Pictures, which enraged Levine, who had envisioned her for the role in his film.
To appease Baker, Levine purchased her a platinum necklace with studded diamonds as a "peace offering" to convince her to take the role. Baker later commented: "[I was] ashamed to admit that I did enjoy holding it to the light and marveling at the beauty of those brilliant sparkling gems.
Principal photography of Harlow began on February 24, 1965, in Los Angeles. Some scenes were also filmed in Malibu. Director Gordon Douglas later said that during filming Baker "was very sick, physically and also mentally, I think. She was going through bad times. But she did a hell of a good job on the picture." Baker worked seven-day work weeks filming in order to complete filming so Paramount could meet their planned release date in June 1965.
