Rating: C+ -- ... the movie's worth a look simply for Mol's career-boosting performance.

Rating: 3/4 -- We can't always be sure what's archival and what's simulated because sometimes the filmmakers are trying to fool us. But their preoccupation with the manufacture of images keeps this exercise in exposure and concealment interesting. Full Review

With her blue-black hair, Mol looks so much like Page that this could be a documentary, and her swings between modesty and exhibitionism are amazingly fluid.

Rating: 2/5 -- In Mary Harron's film biography of the nude and naughty pin-up girl, Notorious is synonymous with 'joyless.'

Description by OLDIES.com:

In an incandescent performance, Gretchen Mol stars as Bettie Page, who grew up in a conservative religious family in Tennessee and became a photo model sensation in 1950s New York. Bettie's legendary pin-up photos made her the target of a Senate investigation into pornography, and transformed her into an erotic icon who continues to enthrall fans to this day. Complemented by an ensemble cast of acclaimed actors, such as David Strathairn and Lili Taylor, the film brings to vivid life Bettie's fascinating world.
