We uttered her name in full-FarrahFawcettMajors-and never said just "Farrah" (which, to our Indian ears, sounded too much like the name of the wife of the Shah of Iran). We were the only ones to possess a copy in our house, and so our dorm became a magnet for boys who wished to come and gaze at Farrah Fawcett-Majors, as she then was.

Our little dormitory of five 15-year-olds in a boarding school in Rajasthan, in India, acquired a copy of the poster in 1977.

Like millions of other boys of the time, I had my own relationship with Farrah Fawcett. embassies and State Department initiatives of the time put together. That one poster did more for America's image abroad-and for a sturdy Amerophilia-than all the U.S. (If the image hasn't quite attained the status of Che Guevara's, it's because most guys don't normally wear T-shirts with women on them.) Farrah Fawcett's poster, ineradicably luminous, irrefutably subversive, gave young males in joyless places-India, Egypt, Poland, Turkey, the Argentina and Chile of the generals, the barely post-Franco Spain, the dingy, strike-ridden Britain of James Callaghan, repressive South Africa, Catholic Ireland, seething Indonesia, robotic Japan and Singapore-a priceless vision of America, and of American happiness. I'm talking, of course, about The Poster from 1976, of which, as Texas Monthly once reported, 12 million copies have sold worldwide. I say this with only a trace of exaggeration: Farrah Fawcett was, in her heyday, a most potent ambassador for America, without so much as setting foot in many of the countries where she had her seismic cultural impact. In the 1970s, Farrah Fawcett embodied a certain vision of America, one embraced not merely by her American contemporaries, but by all those in other countries who watched America for signs and gestures-indeed, for rays of light. Her second big screen feature, the science fiction film the 1979 S aturn 3 with Kirk Doulgas, didn't fare much better. Her first film was Somebody Killed Her Husband with Jeff Bridges in 1978 billed as a comedy, romance, that venture that did poorly at the box office. But one thing that is obvious is that her venture into the world of big screen films wasn't a success. I can't say for sure if either of these things are true. The other was her husband, Lee who was jealous of the fact that she was far more popular and successful than he was and he wanted a "good little wife who was home every evening to cook him supper".
FARRAH FAWCETT POSTER MOVIE
He hoped she would make much more money as a movie star than a TV star. Some people are of the opinion that two men "ruined" Farrah's career, the first being her manager, Jay Bernstein, who supposedly talked her into leaving Charlie's Angels for a movie career. I have little information about this poster other than it shows Farrah in a scene from the movie, Sunburn.
