I have acquired another vintage slide from the 1970 camp classic “Myra Breckinridge.” Film critic Rex Reed played Myron, a man who dreams that he is a transgendered woman named Myra, played by Raquel Welch. The physical similarity between the two is incredible (insert sarcasm here). Rex is shown in one of the Chateau Marmont’s penthouse suite bedrooms. On the wall is a movie poster:
Thanks to the miracle of squinting and Google, I was able to figure out it was for “Between Heaven and Hell” (1956) with Robert Wagner, Terry Moore, and Broderick Crawford. Here’s what the original poster looked like:
I wonder if the poster was on the wall at the Chateau or just set dressing? There’s not enough of the room to tell if Rex was in the master bedroom:
or the guest bedroom:
Both are obviously more tasteful looking now. Just ask Willis.
