OK. We're on, BUT....I have to make a stop at The Grove at 5 pm to get a new power cord for my Mac. We'll head to the cemetery directly following that. I'll call someone. Or, someone call me. You know, the usual.

Let's hat her!

What a fantastic film!

HATE. Let's HATE her.

Gilda was great. Film Noir is such an odd genre. While the idea of seeing such awful people do such awful things to each other isn't usually my type of film-going experience, I absolutely adore the snappy dialogue, which overrules any squeamishness I might have regarding the plot. Hayworth is totally gorgeous. The camera - and the whole audience - loves her, even as she chews through every man around her.

It wasn't crowded at all. Wonderfully laid back and pleasant. I hope Harold and Maude isn't too busy.

Totally, I love that picture - classic old b/w movies are perfect for that venue.

Oh and FYI hun you were getting Rita Hayworth and Jayne Mansfield mixed up as far as their demise is concerned -- According to the imdb, Rita Hayworth died in 1987, at the age of 68, from Alzheimer's disease (which struck her very early on). You were also thinking of Mariska Hagarty, who is Jayne Mansfield's daughter, and is currently on Law & Order: SVU.

Yeah, I figured that one out when I got home. Hayworth married Prince Ali Kahn (as well as Orson Wells).

Ewww the thought of having sex with Orson Wells ... *gag*

Maybe he was in to that sort of thing... :evil:

Yeah, lots of women have said I look like Orson Wells....

err... um....uhhh...

f**k... :(

Wells was rather attractive in Citizen Kane.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all.

I've never thought about Welles' appeal in that way, I think he was only truly repulsive as he was in Touch of Evil. Otherwise, a fascinating person.

I'm fond of Citizen Kane, but I have to admit, it's more for Gregg Toland's brilliant camerawork than for Welles portryal of Kane. I have a soft spot for Jane Eyre, even with the horrid fake nose and the always annoying (to me) Margaret O'Brien.
