  A unique collection of eight short, erotic silent black and white films shot in Hollywood in the early 1920s by Cine Art productions, using studio stages after hours and featuring wannabe starlets with their clothes off. They were featured in Kevin Brownlow's wonderful series about early Hollywood made for Thames Television some years ago. By modern-day standards, the films are fun and innocent and feature girls disporting themselves without clothes in a selection of situations and stories - on the beach, hiding in caves, dressing up in a revue. The films were found next to a hand grenade in an air-raid shelter! Contains: Betty's Bath, Desert Nymphs, A Girl Review, Hollywood Models, Jazz Babies, The Idol: A Phantasy, Lingerie, Sirens of the Sea 20% of the profits on the sale of this DVD will be donated to Cancer Research.
