Need a laugh? Revisit the best Mae West one-liners before the premiere tonight! | American Masters

Mae West born August 17, in 1893 - One of Hollywood’s boldest icons :) wrote many of the movies she starred in, including She Done Him Wrong, I'm No Angel, Go West Young Man, Klondike Annie, My Little Chickadee... #botd Did You Know? Mae West went to jail for Sex — literally! In 1927, her racy play Sex landed her 10 days in jail for “corrupting the morals of youth”—though she served only 8 for “good behavior.” 😉 http://www.classicmoviehub.com/bio/mae-west/ | Classic Movie Hub

Mae West was a groundbreaking sex symbol and pioneer in early Hollywood. With her sultry voice, voluptuous figure, and witty one liners, she challenged societal norms and pushed boundaries on screen. I just love how she delivered her lines, most of which she wrote! #maewest #oldhollywood #classichollywood #moviestar #classicactor #hollywoodhistory #1930s #1920s #carygrant #pioneer | Hollywoodland Photos
