Silent star Mary Pickford and the great screenwriter Frances Marion.
“I don’t know what the hell you’re doing here… Selling your soul, I suppose? All you writers have such a bloody romantic attitude. You think you’re too good for the movies. Don’t you believe it. The movies are too good for you. We don’t need any romantic nineteenth-century whores. We need technicians.” A wise and experienced film editor to a first time screenwriter. —Prater Violet by Christopher Isherwood
“Out here in California, I knew as much as the rest of the girls in movies, which was nothing. The difference was I would take any part. I never sought to be a star. I didn’t mind being typed. I wanted to be typed. One of the greatest thrills of my life was hearing a director say he wanted a Lucille Ball-type for a picture. Of course, later it was different when they said they wanted a young Lucille Ball-type.” —Lucille Ball
“Anybody can direct a picture once they know the fundamentals. Directing is not a mystery, it’s not an art. The main thing about directing is: photograph the people’s eyes.” —John Ford
A Yemenite Jew named Yehia holding a lulav and etrog—the four species—in a Sukkah, Jerusalem, 1939.
You will dwell in booths for seven days; all natives of Israel shall dwell in booths.
—Leviticus 23:42
On the first day, you will take for yourselves a fruit of a beautiful tree, palm branches, twigs of a braided tree and brook willows, and you will rejoice before the L-RD your G-d for seven days.
—Leviticus 23:40
All over the world Jews are preparing—decorating the Sukkah, cooking, and more cooking—for the holiday of Sukkot.
Here are some eye-catching photos pictures of Jews celebrating this joyous holiday in Israel, Samarkand, and America, a reminder that Torah Judaism is universal and eternal.
In observance of the holiday and because of a hectic schedule Seraphic Secret will be offline until Friday.
