Above, an interesting promo image of U.S. actress Susan Harrison, known for her role as Susie Hunsecker in the iconic film noir Sweet Smell of Success, seen here putting her sacroiliac through its paces with a serpentine “S” posture we suspect is harder to strike than it looks. But that’s what talent is for—making hard stuff look easy. The photo was made when Harrison was filming 1960’s Key Witness. We haven’t seen Sweet Smell of Success, but we have a copy, and its premiere date is this month, so we’ll see if we can fit it into the queue and report back. Meanwhile Harrison proves below that she can make other symbols with her body—“Я” for example, which looks like a meaningless backwards “R” but which in actuality is, “I am” in Cyrillic. We have it on good authority that she finished the thought with the Cyrillic for “flexible”—Гибкий. We’ll try to track down that shot for you.
Susan comes down with a case of the bends.
