Synopsis: The bold Tira works as dancing beauty and lion tamer at a fair. Out of an urgent need of money, she agrees to a risky new number: she'll put her head into a lion's muzzle! With this attraction the circus makes it to New York and Tira can persue her dearest occupation: flirting with rich men and accepting expensive presents. Among the guys she searches the love of her life, from whom she only knows from a fortune-teller that he'll be rich and have black hair. When she finally meets him, she becomes a victim of intrigue.

My name is Frederick, but they calls me Otto.

All right, honey,

you tell the gentleman it's okay.

Yes, ma'am.

- Who's the boyfriend?

- Wouldn't you like to know?

I tell you, you go mixing up with any guy

and I'll bust his jaw.

I'll break him in two, you hear?

I'll give him the works.

If you ain't careful,

you're liable to hurt somebody.

Take that as a warning.

You take it and bury it,

maybe it will grow lilies.

- I'll see you later.

- The later, the better.

Tira, can I come in?

Come on in.

See, I just felt I had to talk to somebody.

I'm in a rush, but go ahead and talk.

You look terrible. What's the matter?

Everything is the matter, with me anyhow.

- Barton again?

- Yeah.

That guy is a habit with you, honey.

Why don't you step out?

A change will do you good.

- That's what I'm doing.

- What about Slick?

He's all right. If he kept his hands

out of other people's pockets.

What is it gonna get me

hanging around him?

I got ideas.

Somewhere there's a guy with a million

waiting for a dame like me.

Rajah said so.

Tira, you always have such swell things.

How do you do it on your salary?

It's a gift, honey.

Them beads is pretty.

They are kind of pretty.

He gave me them. Genuine amber.

The beads, I mean.

And these here handkerchiefs,

genuine Madeira.

No, he gave me the pillows.

Here, here's the baby.

He gave me them.

And this here sailor,

he gave me this here jade set...

he got in Shanghai, genuine jade, he said.

Here.

Tira, they're beautiful.

- You like them?

- Yes.

Try them on. If they do something to you,

you can have them.

Thanks.

Don't mention it.

I'd like to stick around and show you

the rest of my stuff, but I got a heavy date.

I gotta be leaving you.

- Tira, how can I ever thank you?

- Don't.

Why, you look better already.

Say, you're a good-looking dame.

There is a lot of guys

that would go for you in a big way.

Always remember, honey, a good motto is:

"Take all you can get

and give as little as possible."

Don't forget, honey,

never let one man worry your mind.

Find them, fool them, forget them.

Thanks again.

Hello, how's the joints tonight?

Fine.

Swell, Tira.

Hello, Tira.

This is the first chance

I've had to talk to you.

- When are we going out again together?

- Almost anytime you say, Harry.

I got to see you more often.

- You know, I'm kind of crazy about you.

- Oh, yeah?

- Can't get you out of my mind.

- That's bad.

Better not be thinking about me

when you're up there in the flying rings.

- Something's liable to happen.

- Not a chance.

How about us going somewhere

after the show tonight?

Not tonight, I gotta see my aunt.

Tira, us fellows are worried

Mae West

Mary Jane "Mae" West (August 17, 1893 – November 22, 1980) was an American actress, singer, playwright, screenwriter, comedian, and sex symbol whose entertainment career spanned seven decades, known for her lighthearted bawdy double entendres and breezy sexual independence. West was active in vaudeville and on the stage in New York City before moving to Hollywood to become a comedian, actress and writer in the motion picture industry, as well as appearing on radio and television. The American Film Institute named her 15th among the greatest female stars of classic American cinema. Often using a husky contralto voice, West was one of the more controversial movie stars of her day and encountered many problems, especially censorship. She bucked the system, making comedy out of conventional mores, and the Depression-era audience admired her for it. When her cinematic career ended, she wrote books and plays and continued to perform in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television and to record rock and roll albums. She was once asked about the various efforts to impede her career, to which she replied: "I believe in censorship. I made a fortune out of it." more…
