  1. It's an honest to God classic, and Feiffer's illustrations are just so right.
  2. Scarlett O'Hara got all the good lines, moments, and outfits... but at least Melanie wasn't completely chopped liver and got to wear this lovely blue dress at Scarlett's first wedding. No, bows and puffed sleeves aren't everyone's cup of tea, but Olivia de Havilland wears the hell out of them (and, wow, she looks beautiful in that shade of blue). She would later reveal that the dress's hoop had to be removed so she could move around in the scene better.
  3. He also illustrated The Phantom Tollbooth, one of my all-time favorite books as a kid.
  4. If I could find it, afford it, and pull it off as well as Marlene Dietrich in Blonde Venus (1932), I would get this tux and top hat combo in a hot second.
  5. This is my all-time favorite song by the Indigo Girls, because it's the audio equivalent of a warm hug.
  6. What a life, and imagine the stories she had. RIP, Ms. Plowwright.
  7. Just a few of the fabulous costumes from my all time favorite, Singin' in the Rain. Was there anything Walter Plunkett couldn't do??
  8. David Lynch was one of the most unique filmmakers out there. Naomi Watts in Mulholland Drive gave one of my favorite performances by an actress ever.
  9. That's cool, it was just my personal UO.
  10. Golden Age of Hollywood UO: I don't think Nelson Eddy was the abysmally dull actor he's always been painted as. Even if he wasn't the most scintillating of performers, I personally find his contemporaries Fredric March and Joel McCrea way more boring than he ever was. Hell, at least Eddy could sing!
  11. Oh, no! He was always so much fun on the British WLiiA. He will certainly be missed by me.
  12. I completely agree. The movie's dress is so lifeless and murky, poor AK all but fades into the background. It didn't have to match the stage dress, but couldn't they have done something more fun with it? If they'd made it a sugary pastel color, it would have looked so much prettier in the nighttime scenes (and would have made for an ironic contrast for the darker turn the story takes).
  13. Claude Jarman Jr., former child star best remembered for the classic tearjerker The Yearling, has died.
  14. Oh, don't you worry, "Electric Boogaloo" is definitely part of modern mainstream lexicon. Heck, I wonder if people remember that there was a first Breakin' movie...
  15. You mean the guy who doesn't even know how to hold a book?
