A lot of beautiful pictures and thought-provoking quotes!
Growing up all I remember of Barbara Stanwyck is the older matron of the Big Valley – but in her younger days…she was a babe.
It happened one night is one of those timeless movies. But also a window into life in the early 30s. Remember that Gyrocopter?
Another Swanson picture – thank you, Robert! I don’t know so much about the hairstyle, though. To me, a cut like that suits very few women; Louise Brooks and Colleen Moore are about it.
May you and your family have a lovely Thanksgiving.
Jayne played kind of s=dumb babes but she was a very smart woman who made a fortune in real estate. She supported her whole family, her mother and brothers.
Whoops. editing errors there.
Well done, Robert.
Jane Russell always looks intense to me… beautiful, but intense.
I love the trench watch, but I wish we could see Gable’s watch better.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving…
