Harlow (1965) watch online

Harlow is a 1965 American biographical drama film directed by Gordon Douglas about the life of film star Jean Harlow. It stars Carroll Baker in the title role and Raf Vallone, Red Buttons, Angela Lansbury, Peter Lawford, Mike Connors, Martin Balsam and Leslie Nielsen in supporting roles.

The film was produced by Joseph E. Levine, who announced the project in late 1964. Filming began in February 1965, concurrent with another Harlow biopic with the same title and subject, starring Carol Lynley and produced by Magna Corporation.

Harlow was distributed by Paramount Pictures, opening in June 1965, shortly after the release of the Magna biopic. Although the film failed commercially, it was successful in launching the hit song "Girl Talk" by Neal Hefti. Critical reaction was mixed, though Baker's portrayal of Harlow received praise, as well as the production values, sets, and cinematography. For his performance, Red Buttons received a nomination for Best Supporting Actor at the 23rd Golden Globe Awards.
