Stars

The 1970 movie Myra Breckinridge features established major stars in the lead roles and two aspiring young actors who go on to superstardom.

Raquel Welch

The beautiful sex symbol actively pursued the part with the hope that it would help establish her as a legitimate star with acting talent. (Does she look incredible in those stars and stripes or what?)

 

 

 

 

 

Mae West

The 77-year-old former sex symbol came out of retirement to get top billing and the right to write her own lines as the horny old talent agent Letitia Van Allen.

 

John Huston

The well-known director and sometime star appeared as Buck Loner, Myron's uncle and former cowboy movie star now running a second-rate acting school.

 

Farrah Fawcett

Playing Mary Ann Pringle, the quintessential dumb blond, was one of the first roles for this aspiring young sex symbol, who went on to become a major star.

 

Roger Herren

The handsome aspiring young star appeared as Rusty Godowsky, who is raped by Myra in her bold quest to destroy the traditional male and realign the sexes. 

 

Rex Reed

The movie critic starred as Myron Breckinridge, a Jiminy Cricket-like role in the film.

 

Tom Selleck

The young actor had a bit part as one of the young men who meets with Letitia about an acting contract.
