Does anyone have video and/or screencaps of the scene from Hollywood Babylon that featured an actress portraying Frances Farmer? In one scene she (don't know her name) wore a green collared Posey. Don't know how long the scene lasted; I've only seen vidcaps of it on Greg B's site. Can't find a video of it anywhere, either.

 

here the whole movie:

Thanks, but I'm not sure that's it. The caps I saw had the woman in a green collar posey, which wasn't around in 1972.

 

But what is a "posey"?
Anyway the movie depicts "the scandals in the Golden Age of Hollywood during the 1920's", according to IMDB.

 

ive got the book. I never knew there was a movie.

 

This is a Posey: http://hekshano.com/jacket/front1.jpg

 

A straightjacket... Well, Frances Farmer was wrongly internated in an asylum, during the '40ies, and this movie is a sort of false documentary about Hollywood during that age...
Download it, most probably it's just that you are searching.

 

I'll try it, but that style of Posey didn't exist in 1972 when that movie was made. Thanks, though. I appreciate you responding to my request.
