Is the glory of woman her hair - or, like Adam's beard, is it largely a myth? Possibly in Grecian times there was a good deal of glory visible. Woman in Grecian style costume walks onto the set of a country house patio. She walks down some steps. C/U of the woman who holds a lyre - she turns her head to display her Grecian style hairdo. Two women then proceed down the steps. One wears an Elizabethan style costume, the other is in Mediaeval dress. • • And even in Mediaeval and Elizabethan times Eve's hair was there, though a bit submerged C/U of Mediaeval woman who wears a wimple style hat and has her hair in plaits. C/U of the Elizabethan woman showing her headdress. A Stuart style outfit is displayed next. Then came the graceful Stuart period - a lot of hair was needed to support those hats C/U of woman turning to show her hat and hair. • • What Pompadour did for Eve's crowning glory speaks for itself - L/S and C/U of woman in Marie Antoinette style costume with enormous powdered wig. Another year of grace came in with the early Victorians. Woman in a Victorian dress and bonnet poses between two shrubs in the pretend garden. Today - well crowning glories may be small, but they're convenient and chic C/U of the back of a woman's head - short hairdo with small curls. • • Was an item in Eve's Film Review issue number 597. • FILM ID:968.2 • A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
