BEHIND PLAYBOY BUNNIES 1
It's Bunny Weekend at Spy Vibe! The Playboy Bunny symbolized sexuality in the cold war era by providing an icon for publisher Hugh Hefner's celebration of sex and individual freedom. The success of his magazine and chain of clubs showed that people were ready to bring sexuality out into the open and to move away from the repression of the Eisenhower years. The first club started in Chicago in 1960 and was an important stepping-stone to the social revolution that would happen over the next decade. According to Gloria Steinem and others in these two short documentaries, those voluptuous vixens were still tied in some ways to post-war attitudes. One Bunny tells us just how much energy and practice it required to present that Bunny image on the job. Follow our Bunny Weekend with Behind Playboy Bunnies 2 for more in-depth views on the Playboy Bunny Years with interviews with ex-Bunnies and with Playboy founder, Hugh Hefner.
