While I'm working on Part Two of my essay about Jean Harlow, here's a clip of the only color footage ever shot of her, from 1930's Hell's Angels.
(And before you say, hey, wait, wasn't that a black-and-white movie, I'll tell you that Hollywood had an odd habit back in the day of inserting color scenes -- usually of a lavish party, as here -- into otherwise black-and-white movies. See, for example, The Wedding March and The Women.)
