A classic pose from pinup legend Lorelei Lee (Marguerite French)
A romantic vision of pinup beauty:  the legendary Lorelei Lee (Marguerite French).

She was young, beautiful and vivacious. She was one of the most desirable, recognizable pinup queens in the country during the late 1950’s. She appeared on dozens of magazine covers, calendars, and photo spreads, her figure appeared in every man's dreams... until one day she dropped out of sight, leaving behind a legion of fans and a tantalizing mystery…

 

Who in the Hell is the Real, Live Lorelei Lee?

Ronnie Marshall, a struggling writer and dealer of girlie books and burlesque memorabilia, is about to find out. While sifting through boxes of old photographs from legendary photographer Burgess Link, a stash of previously unknown photographs of the mysterious Lorelei Lee are uncovered. When confronted, Burgess confesses to one of the best-kept secrets of the pinup era: Lorelei was his one true love, his mistress, unbeknownst to his wife, her friends, and the world at large.

Now an old woman, mad, damaged, watching her life play out before her in a bizarre vaudeville circus existing solely in her mind’s eye, the real Lorelei Lee sits alone in an asylum on Long Island, nursing her wounds, pining for her lost love and her lost life, while Burgess, wracked with guilt over her illness, and still not understanding what drove them apart years ago, visits once a year, on the anniversary of her disappearance, hoping that she will one day finally reveal where and why she left him in the middle of the night all those years ago…

 

The face of a thousand dreams, the one and only, the world-famous Lorelei Lee (Marguerite French).
