Fact is, though, her life was much more stable when she was posing for the Klaws' bondage films than it would be in the service of the Lord. In the decade after she left New York, Bettie was wed three times: to the teenager Armond Walterson, again to Billy Neal and finally to Harry Lear, a lineman for Florida Bell. Each marriage ended in divorce. But that was the least...

The execution and choreography, however, were both far too influenced by the modernistic creativity flowing through the rest of the show. The dance itself had the wrong emotional texture, and the movements were too flowy and extended to lay claim to the crisp style of Fosse. By the end of the number, after the addition of bowler hats, canes and white gloves under blacklight, the piece was nearly a tribute, but the flirty theatricality of character was consistently lacking—except for in featured dancer Madelyn...
