Bettie Page: Dark Angel is an intriguing glimpse into the life of Bettie Page, the quintessential pin-up of the 50s. It captures those final, tumultuous years when she skyrocketed to fame but also faced the darker side of her stardom. The pacing can feel reflective, almost languid at times, which suits the atmospheric recreation of that era. The way they visualize those controversial bondage films is striking, gritty, yet oddly artistic. Performances here are worth noting, especially the lead, who embodies Page's complex persona with a mix of charm and vulnerability. It’s not your typical biopic, more a dive into the contradictions of fame and the shadows that linger behind the spotlight.
