I just looked her up. She’s not even hot. Like, at all. Plenty of way hotter babes back in those times. I don’t see what the big deal is 🤷♂️
Her shtick was pretending he had sex on her mind all the time. Other actresses weren't so overt about it. With Garbo it was all meaningful looks and long pauses. West just outright said that she liked to have sex with men. It distinguished her from the pack. But I agree, physically she was not very attractive.
So she was an ugly slut. Got it. To think that used to be edgy....
