Blonde Venus. Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. The Beautiful Blonde from Bashful Bend. Platinum Blonde. Legally Blonde. Incendiary Blonde.(Betty Hutton).
And — just for something different — The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe.
The titles speak volumes. In
cinema — not to mention fairytale, myth, art, literature, politics and the realm
of popular culture in general — the image of the blonde or the fair-haired woman
has carried a strong symbolic charge. It can be identified with innocence and
purity but also with artifice and duplicity. It can suggest bounty, dazzle and
allure, the implication that all that glisters is not necessarily gold. It can
convey a heightened sense of spectacle. It is almost always associated with a
notion of the feminine. The figure of the blonde is one of Hollywood’s most
potent emblems and exports, and it has had an influence on other movie cultures
over the years.
The Alliance Francaise Classic Film Festival has a short program dedicated to the figure of the blonde in French cinema. It features a handful of films from the 1950s to the 70s, beginning with a classic whose title highlights its subject: Jacques Becker’s Casque d’Or (1952), or Golden Helmet, a movie that emphasises the sensuous blonde coiffure of actress Simone Signoret.
She illuminates Becker’s handsome black-and-white film, set in low-life Paris at the end of the 19th century. Signoret is Marie, nicknamed Casque d’Or, who falls for a reformed criminal, with tragic consequences. In the movie, her celebrated blondeness has a formal and an informal aspect. At a dance when the pair meet, her hair is piled high on top of her head; she’s a sensuous, confident beauty in a social world of display. Yet when the lovers are together in the countryside, during the brief time they have together, her helmet of hair is loosened, dishevelled, all artifice gone.

Yet when the lovers are together in the countryside, during the brief time they have together, her helmet of hair is loosened, dishevelled, all artifice gone.
A decade after Casque d’Or, the
new wave swept through French cinema; and one of its most influential films,
Jean-Luc Godard’s remarkable first feature, Breathless (1960), is part of the
festival. Its female lead, American actress Jean Seberg, has a blonde helmet of
sorts, a sleek, androgynous crop.
She had already cut her hair short for her movie debut in Otto Preminger’s Saint Joan, and wore it the same way in the next film she made with him, Bonjour Tristesse (1958). For Hollywood, she had played French characters. In Breathless (which Godard dedicated to B-movie outfit Monogram Pictures), she is an American in Paris, a young woman who incarnates both naivete and duplicity — a fresh version of a familiar trope.
In cinema, the figure of the blonde often appears alongside the contrasting figure of the brunette; Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), starring Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell, is probably the most engaging example.
Blondeness changes meaning over time, however. In the love-triangle drama Red Dust (1932), for example, Jean Harlow is an easygoing platinum blonde with a chequered past, while Mary Astor is a ladylike brunette. In the 1953 remake, Mogambo, the brunette, played by Ava Gardner, is the woman with the fast reputation, while Grace Kelly is the embodiment of blonde refinement. Yet, in a classic piece of Hollywood casting, the actor playing the love interest is the same in both movies: Clark Gable.
The blonde-brunette double act will feature at the festival with Viva Maria! (1965), a burlesque female buddy movie set in Central America at the turn of the 20th century. It gives us Jeanne Moreau and Brigitte Bardot as contrasting yet well-matched activist-anarchist showgirls who join a circus, invent the striptease and embrace revolution.

And, of course, there’s Catherine
Deneuve, the MVP of blondes, represented in the festival with a lesser-known
film, Lovers Like Us (Le Sauvage, 1975).
There might be blondes of greater celebrity: Monroe, Harlow, Bardot, for example. But Deneuve has longevity on her side, and an extraordinary catalogue of roles.
In 2010, when the Cinematheque Francaise held an exhibition called Brune/Blonde: Female Hair in Art and Cinema, the catalogue featured an interview with Deneuve that was devoted to her thoughts about coiffure and make-up and the way her blonde hair functioned in her roles.
Her range was apparent from the outset. In Les Parapluies de Cherbourg (1964), Jacques Demy’s exquisite and melancholy musical, she’s the embodiment of quotidian beauty and everyday longing. In Roman Polanski’s Repulsion (1965), she’s a woman descending from panic into madness, in a film that plunges the viewer directly into her experience. In Bunuel’s Belle de Jour (1967), she’s the icy bourgeois wife with a masochistic secret life.
Hollywood cinema, above all, has fostered and fetishised the figure of the blonde. Among directors, few are more associated with this impulse than Alfred Hitchcock. Deneuve could have been a Hitchcock blonde: they met and talked about doing a movie, a detective story that existed only as an outline.
The exemplary moment of blondeness in Hitchcock is without a doubt the scene in Vertigo (1958) in which Kim Novak, playing a brunette who has dyed her hair blonde at the behest of James Stewart’s character, presents herself for his inspection, then consents to an additional reconfiguring of her coiffure. Stewart is obsessed with recreating a lost love, in a situation whose implications he is unaware of; it’s a scene with multiple resonances of performance, impersonation, ambiguity, desire and haunting circularity.
Hitchcock’s blonde figures are more complex and varied, it must be said, than tradition has it: the cool command of Kelly is very different from the vulnerability and awkwardness of Tippi Hedren.
The history of Hollywood blondeness has twists and turns. For Ellen Tremper, author of I’m No Angel: The Blonde in Fiction and Film, “the blonde of the cinema of the 1930s, Mae West, Jean Harlow, Carole Lombard, and Jean Arthur, would change the American landscape and women’s place in it”. These 30s heroines, she says, have wit and intelligence; they are assertive, not passive figures of contemplation.
In the 40s, Veronica Lake became famous for a distinctive, off-kilter coiffure, blonde curls cascading over one eye. Although an engaging comedienne, she is best known for a trio of noir films in which she was paired with Alan Ladd. Decades later, her image resurfaced in LA Confidential (1997), in which Kim Basinger played a Lake doppelganger who works for a 50s callgirl ring that specialises in movie-star lookalikes.
And, of course, there is Monroe, defining Hollywood blondeness, and to some degree transcending it by sheer effort of will. Her body of studio work is surprisingly confined: only once, in Clash by Night (1952), in which she portrays a cannery worker, did she play a character with an ordinary job. In her major roles she was always a variation on a gold-digger or a stereotypical “dumb blonde” — yet she managed to subvert the stereotyping or deepen its implications, no matter what the challenge was off-screen.
In The Prince and the Showgirl (1957), on what was reportedly a chaotic and troubled set, she gives an effortlessly appealing performance in an unlikely period piece: it is her co-star, Laurence Olivier (also her director), who appears awkward and uncomfortable.
Monroe, one way or another, continues to leave her mark on the evocation of blondeness.
In the 80s, Madonna did her best to own it, restaging Monroe’s Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend number, rifling through the Hollywood cultural dress-up box for a variety of shades and identities. Her video clip for Vogue, directed by David Fincher, explicitly raids both classic Hollywood portraiture and the vogueing phenomenon of the gay club. While her video clips ruled, her movies faltered, although she had made a promising start with Desperately Seeking Susan (1985), in which Rosanna Arquette is a bored suburban wife freed by indirect contact and identification with Madonna, loose cannon and girl on the run.
On screen, Kathleen Turner began the 80s as a dark blonde throwback femme fatale in Body Heat (1981), while Romancing the Stone (1984) showed her as a heroine in the adventurous tradition of the 30s. By 1999, in The Virgin Suicides, she’s the oppressively anxious maternal presence in a movie revolving around female fragility and male obsession, with Kirsten Dunst, as her daughter (Lux, or “light”), an emblem of blonde unattainability.
And in the 80s Michelle Pfeiffer — recently name-checked in Bruno Mars’s Uptown Funk number, in which he invokes “that ice-cold Michelle Pfeiffer / That white gold” — has presented versions of blondeness, both cool and hot, that often have old Hollywood resonances.
She made an impact in Brian De Palma’s new take on Scarface (1983), as a gangster’s moll; in The Fabulous Baker Boys (1989) she was an escort turned lounge singer, both world-weary and glamorous; reviewer Roger Ebert compared her to Rita Hayworth in Gilda and Monroe and Some Like it Hot. She could be fragile, too. In The Age of Innocence (1993), Scorsese’s adaptation of Edith Wharton’s novel of New York society, Pfeiffer plays a woman enduring social isolation, a determined, self-aware figure: yet, in the end, she’s no match for Winona Ryder’s embodiment of quietly brutal brunette conformity.

Set against those actresses
identified forever with their blondeness, there’s the occasional example of
uncharacteristic blondeness when an actress is presented almost wilfully against
type. The most potent example is Rita Hayworth in The Lady from Shanghai (1947);
her husband, director and co-star, Orson Welles, decided not only to cut her
long hair but also to change it from red to bleached blonde. Producer Harry Cohn
was reportedly apoplectic.
Producers were also none too happy with director Wong Kar-wai when, in Chungking Express (1994), he made one of his stars, Brigitte Lin, almost unrecognisable in a curly blonde wig. She was playing an enigmatic woman caught up in a drug deal gone wrong; it was the director’s reference to the figure of Gena Rowlands in John Cassavetes’s Gloria (1980).
If blondeness is almost always gendered feminine — the extra “e” a giveaway — there is a space in popular culture for the male blond, although a far more limited one. Few male actors have made it part of their identity.
Golden boys are rarely constructed as blond, and the assistance they are given by the hairdresser is much more low-key, colour-coded “light-brown” or “sandy”. Rare exceptions, perhaps: Peter O’Toole and Jean Marais. O’Toole in particular, over the course of a long and varied career, could present an image of male beauty without seeming to be intimidated by the prospect.
In general, when an actor is given noticeably blond hair, it’s a pointed statement — it often signifies difference, extremity, sexual ambiguity. It can confer glamour, often with a homoerotic aura.

When Terence Stamp made his
feature debut in Billy Budd (1962), his black hair was dyed blond, signifying
virtuous blondeness but also iconic presence, desirability. Clive Owen’s
breakthrough role in Croupier (1998), as a blocked writer turned casino
employee, a character is in the process of moral transition: he has platinum
blond hair that he dyes back to its natural black, a move that represents the
assumption of a different identity.
In My Beautiful Laundrette (1985), a cross-cultural gay love story that is also a tale of Margaret Thatcher’s London, Daniel Day-Lewis is Johnny, a street punk who sports a dark quiff of hair with a peroxide skunk-streak through the middle — his hairstyle singles him out, yet shows him as a divided soul. Years later, Ryan Gosling went platinum for The Place Beyond the Pines (2012), in which he plays a motorcycle stuntman who gets caught up in dramas of crime, fatherhood, identity and privilege.
Was the 80s the height of blondeness? Does the image of the blonde actress have the same potency these days? It has always had a troubling connection to the notion of whiteness and racial stereotyping. Yet singer Beyonce, always a shrewd reader of culture, has found a way to subvert expectations and constraints, embracing and extending blonde meaning.
Actresses are less invested in directly embodying the image, less identified with it, more able to play with it, on and off the screen. Yet there is still currency in the term, the ideal. One manifestation is Frank Ocean’s new, long-awaited album, which is called Blonde (or Blond, depending on the territory).
And David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive (2001) has just been anointed as the film of the century so far in a BBC international critics’ poll. Starring Naomi Watts and Laura Elena Harring, it’s a film fascinated by the play of identity, by the endless enigma of Hollywood and representation — exemplified by the distinct yet connected figures of the blonde and the brunette.
Les Blondes runs in Sydney from August 26 to 28 and September 2 to 4; Canberra and Brisbane from September 2 to 4; Perth from October 13 to 16; and Melbourne from November 4 to 6.
