    Whoa... Streets of Fire was one of my favorite movies as a kid. Long live Michael Pare!!

    Custom made vintage repros...

    Weird... that is exactly the question I came on here to ask. I have a beautiful navy blue dress for the mid-40's, and it fits me perfectly. Unfortunately, it has a sizable hole in the fabric. (not a seam rip) I was considering having someone turn it into a pattern so a new one can be made, but...

    CLOCHE HATS FOR LESS THAN 20 BUCKS!!!

    Awesome! Thanks for posting that, because I never go in there. I see an excuse to go shopping in the near future...

    Johnny Got His Gun (09)

    I just saw a trailer for a filmed version of Jeff Daniel's one-man play of the novel. Apparently the dialogue for this version is taken 98% from the book. It was made into a movie once before, but I've never liked it much. The novel is one of my favorites, and I have hopes that this one, with...

    Dark Streets (09)

    Has anyone else seen the trailer for this? It seems a little strange, which leads me to believe that I'll like it. Not to mention the presence of Gabriel Mann from Mad Men. Of course it took me the whole trailer to recognize him... I found it here. Apologies if someone has already made note of...

    Hat Flick - Changeling

    I have high hopes for this on the Lady's side, as well. Perhaps we'll get some nice repro cloche hats out of it...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    You know, I find myself defending the fact that I like this movie more often than any other. It really is the accents that do the film in. Outside of that, I think it's great.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    This is being remade. No info yet, but it seems it's coming. [huh]

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Great movie- absolutely not what I was expecting going in, though. I think the pace of it is what gives it its edge. It makes you tense just watching it.

    What are your unreleased dvd wants?

    I'm waiting patiently for three: The Big Parade The Wind The Crowd The Crowd especially. I saw it once, and it left a monumental impression on me, and it slays me that I can't own it.

    Woolworth's menu, circa 1958

    My best friend and I must have been at the Woolworth's counter 5 times a week when we were little. Looking back, I'm sure that we drove the waitresses crazy, but they never complained. Ours was open right up through the early 90's, and we were broken-hearted when it closed. I always used to eat...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I've been off for two days, and that, coupled with my current state of broke, has led to much movie-watching. Miss Pettigrew Lives fro a Day- adorable, sweet, and fun. It's nice to watch a movie that has no deep meaning to it. Oldboy- none of the above. It was a great film, but not for the...

    Cool Kitchen..

    Mixing Eras

    I agree. I think that when someone gets locked into one era exclusively, they run the risk of looking "costumey". Mix it up.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Too funny. My ex-boyfriend made we watch this one night as half of a double header. The other one was Attack of the Killer Shrews. I hadn't thought about either of these in years...lol

    78rpm Album cover graphic restoration

    Is it me, or are the words "Hot Jazz" supposed to look like flames? You know- red on the bottom fading up to orange and yellow at the top. It could be just the fading, but i think it would look cool nonetheless. Great work!

    3 New Books You Might Like

    I was actually skimming through Wagner's book today at work. My memories of him are strictly from his Hart to Hart era, so it's a kick to read about him and the loads of people he knew before then. Turns out, he was chummy with Harold Lloyd, so that makes him an okay guy in my book. I am...

    What Are You Reading

    lol ... Wow. I was terrified of his video for "Jeopardy" when I was little. Creeps me out to this day... I'm just started The Ghost in Love by Jonathan Carroll. Very good so far, but I love everything he writes, so I'm a little biased.

    Motion Pictures that should NEVER be remade?

    Oh yes. Wings of Desire is one of my favorite films of all time, and this mess just made me angry and ill, all at the same time. They missed the boat completely. Wenders should have sued... The Magnificent Seven (Seven Samurai) was a good remake. It retold the story, but made it it's own film...

    Passe' words and phrases

    I consistently call "Shenanigans" on anything that I find unfair or ridiculous. And my ultimate expression of annoyance or exasperation is definitely "Cripes A'mighty!!" (Often abbreviated to simply "Cripes". My grandmother used both frequently, and it has stayed with me. I also say "close the...
