You’ve got to be kidding me! Every single one on Mae West’s one liners were puns about sex! I’m not saying this is a bad thing, but it’s awfully hypocritical of you to dislike newer comedy for bad language when this stuff is often more filthy.

Reply to mrgumby42000 – I disagree with
characterizing any of Mae West’s comedy
as filth. In the 1950’s I started watching
her films on the local affiliates of the 3
major TV networks. For several decades
they were often shown there, then the old
Hollywood film libraries started going to
cable TV. I’ve seen almost all her films.
She had a wit & flair that is unmatched
today, in part because she did it without
the F word, MF word, CS word & other low
class words for sex & genitalia.

What ethnicity is she? Creole?

I hate this movie so much.
I don’t like watching a bunch of men getting idiotically whipped by an ugly, fat 5 foot whore.

Lady Gaga influenced by Mae West? They seem the same kind of awkward, but… West makes more sense sexually.

Mae West is and was awesome. She will outlive anyone a thousand fold whose pointless boring opinions will amount to nothing.

West is best!

The first woman entertainment power player. She wrote, directed, acted in and produced her own plays on Broadway. The highest earning person in the US in 1940. More on her career, impact and lovers in Sirens of The Roaring 1920’s – Mae West (plus the real story about her most famous line..).

thats interesting, I guess there is something of MW in Lady’s impersonation, but MW was really clever and ridicularized the whole thing in a subtle way, thats why she is different than other sex symbols like Marilyn Monroe. She’s always on top of her own game and the humor is never on her, its on you.
