The Behind-the-Scenes Beauty of Barbarella - Neatorama

Ah, Barbarella. How many ideas sprung from its seminal influence (Dr. Durand Durand, anyone)? Roger Vadim's 1968 film based on the French comics was the flop that launched a thousand concepts. Now a cult favorite, it starred Vadim's one-time wife and American acting dynasty family member Jane Fonda as a sexy star traveler.

This iinked collection of behind-the-scenes photos from the set of Barbarella catches Fonda, Vadim and the easy-on-the-eyes, mostly French cast at the height of their glamour and beauty. See photos of Vadim and Fonda together, with his son, her about to spacesuit malfunction out of being dressed, a video clip of the opening titles, and more here.

They "felt it posed a danger"? I guess they would have claimed that it lunged at them.

Yeah, and the policemen who swept my house after the alarm went off look kind of silly on my surveillance video.

I know this sounds like a joke, but I am serious. The perfect way to test if a dangerous animal is real is to shoot it a couple of times.

At least Andy didn't let Barney put bullets in his gun. Real cops get a woody just thinking about shooting someone or something.

Well, it was only a matter of time before that stone gator threatened the well-being of the lawn gnomes. So, maybe it's for the best.

From what I see, its just the head of a gator. If that's all, then they should have looked a little harder and asked a few questions: 'how big is it?', 'is it resting on land or floating in water?', 'when did you see it first?' and the most important question 'how long has it been there?'

Oh America, how your brains are now the size of walnuts! (except mine, mine is the size of a peach pit XP)

So I wonder how the idiot cops are going to explain that it was posing a threat. Obviously it wasn't moving...

yep, totall goofy, but...i think if they really just wanted to shoot it - they wouldn't have bothered to consult a conservation agent first.

people give c**p to the cops all the time...but if you need help you're still gonna dial 911.
