Cocktail parties: Country-Style
Where I grew up it was all stereotypical "rednecks" and they were proud to label themselves as such. If you didn't fit into their world you were a freak and they made sure you knew it. Thank goodness I live in the city now lol By the sounds of it, you got a good batch! I second the...- Amy Jeanne

What happened to TCM?
TCM is going to be showing LOTS of movies I want to see in the upcoming months: September's Star Of The Month appears to be Kay Francis. They are showing her films all night long on Thursdays. I can't believe this! Kay is one of my very favorite actresses and she's a bit "obscure" to...- Amy Jeanne

What makes you feel vintage?
Isn't that the best? I usually snuggle up in bed and read one before I doze off. I do this every single night. My husband often likes to look over my shoulder and point out all the "hot" women lol- Amy Jeanne

You Look It, But Do You Act It?
:eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap I agree. For me: Cable TV = Made my rare silent and pre-Code movie collection grow to enormous proportions! I would never have seen these films without cable/TCM. Internet = Almost everything I know comes from the internet, whether it be a...- Amy Jeanne

songs that make you shiver/cry
I don't think any songs make me cry. There are certain songs that take me back to certain times and I get all nostalgic/melancholy, but I never cry. It's a little sad, but also sort of a good feeling -- hard to explain.- Amy Jeanne

You Look It, But Do You Act It?
I 100% agree with this! I love a raunchy pre-Code film and nude "art" from the era as much as I love the squeaky clean Hays Code films and the perception that a lot of people have about the time. My Aunt Ella had a baby when she was 16 and cast it aside because she was too busy partying. She...- Amy Jeanne

You Look It, But Do You Act It?
I'm not 100% "old fashioned" in my way of life or thinking. I actually prefer the lurid, gaudy, and "offensive" parts of the "Golden Era." That's why I love off-colour pre-Code cinema and exploitation films. I like it that so many people think the "good old days" were so pure and wholesome...- Amy Jeanne

Do you "Adopt" discarded Golden Era Items?
I feel it is my responsibility to save 20s and 30s movie magazines from "those people" who like to tear out individual pages and try to sell them on ebay for $24.99 a pop when everyone knows you can buy a WHOLE MAGAZINE for under $10!!! Tearing up old magazines disgusts me.- Amy Jeanne

What makes you feel vintage?
"That Vintage Feeling" also hits me when I'm doing pincurls. I live in a building built in 1926. Pretty much everything is still original except for the toilet, fridge, stove, and kitchen sink. When I stand there in that spot in my minty-green tiled bathroom, giving myself a vintage...- Amy Jeanne

Show Us Your Tattoos
My artist charges $125 an hour, minimum of $65. BUT!!! He gives me and my husband "mates rates" so we end up paying half! We usually give him a big tip, though, because we feel a little guilty :o- Amy Jeanne

What makes you feel vintage?
Although I love living in today's world, I do bury myself in the past whenever I pull out one of my vintage magazines to read. I'm instantly there! While I love today's technology and beliefs, I DO NOT love today's pop culture! As the wonderful Janet Klein says: When I flip through the...- Amy Jeanne

What happened to TCM?
I'm so glad I recorded all those movies all those years when I did! I doubt we'll ever see obscure films again like Men Are Like That (1930), The Matrimonial Bed (1930), and God's Gift To Women (1931) -- all WONDERFUL movies I taped over the years and now have transferred to DVD. I used to...- Amy Jeanne

What happened to TCM?
It's just preference for me. Movies from the 50s-60s-70s are certainly "classic," but I prefer movies from the 20s and 30s and there once was a time then TCM showed LOTS of "off the beaten path" films from those decades. Now it is all just standardised and getting later and later in what it...- Amy Jeanne
