What is with Betty's hairdo?
And what about that anoying voice?
shareI think she's very pretty and the best part of the movie.

I like her voice, but it's true she has a radio inflection.

She had a nice bod, but lousy hair.

She may have had the current cut of the times and the Betty Bryant character in Steve Ditko's Spider-Man comic book is the spitting image of this Betty.
In the new Spider-Man features, as I recall, the Betty character also sports a similar cut.
Betty Page was also popular at about that time, fantastic brunette.
shareGood point. The Betty Page bangs were most certainly in vogue. I don't know how "main-stream" Miss Page might have been in her day or how much of an influence in fashion she may have had back then. We know her famous hair-do now, but she may have been riding the crest of the mode and not the creator. And didn't Betty Page wear it like that (with bangs) because she did not like her forehead?
Maybe the popularity came from Betty Cooperand Veronica Lodge!
