Now to any functional male in the audience, the sight of Laura Lovely in glasses evokes a reaction in no way different from the sight of her without glasses. Yet to the distorted view of the actor playing the hero of the film, Laura Lovely with glasses on is plain. At some point in the picture, a kindly female friend of Laura, who knows the facts of life, removes Laura's glasses. It turns out, suddenly, that she can see perfectly well without them, and our hero falls violently in love with the now-beautiful Laura and there is a perfectly glorious finale.\\

->''An even better example [of glasses representing a negative view of intelligence] is a Hollywood cliche that has been so efficiently ground to dust by over-use that even Hollywood dare not use it again (an almost incredible state of affairs). The cliche to which I refer is the one whereby it is assumed that a superbly beautiful actress, whom we shall call Laura Lovely, is ugly, providing she is wearing glasses.\\
\\
This has happened over and over again. Laura Lovely is a librarian or a schoolteacher (the two feminine occupations that, by Hollywood convention, guarantee spinsterhood and unhappiness) and naturally she wears big, tortoise-shell glasses (the most intellectual type) to indicate the fact.\\

Is there a person alive so obtuse as not to see that (a) the presence of glasses in no way ruined Laura's looks and that our hero must be perfectly aware of that, and (b) that if Laura were wearing glasses for any sensible reason, removing them would cause her to kiss the wrong male since she probably would be unable to tell one face from another without them?''
