Came across this short documentary, where the author of Lolita found his muse in old Hollywood films called "Baby Burlesk."
Burlesque dancing is an ohlala, tongue-in-cheek, striptease.
A series of short films in the 1930's star none other than Shirley Temple, and to see how sexualized she and her other toddler-aged costars were is so damn depressing.
It's a good, albeit short documentary, that helps give Hollywood a huge freaking side-eye for their blatant acceptance of treating children as sexual objects.
