But I had been meaning to post this since last Christmas...<br />
<br />
<i>When I was invited by Sid Grauman to place my hand and footprints in the forecourt of his beautiful Chinese Theatre on September 5, 1939, I couldn't have been more thrilled. I had just returned from a much needed vacation in Hawaii about three weeks before, and was finishing up some retakes at the studio.<br />
I thought about how my prints would look in cement, for all time!--and wanted them to be smaller if I could manage it. I could do nothing about the size of my hands, but my footprints--those I could make smaller. My shoe size was about 5-1/2 and my mother Lela has a smaller size shoe than I: 4-1/2. So, I borrowed a pair of my mother's shoes and slipped my toes into them and stepped into the cement and made my prints!<br />
I sure was glad when I could take off the "cement shoes" and put on my regular walking shoes again.</i><br />

So I'm too lazy to write out the whole source info, but here's the ISBN# for the book: 0-938817-28-0Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-18952623661147569732010-03-12T11:44:00.000-08:002010-03-12T11:44:38.179-08:00TCM Classic Film FestivalI just found out about TCM's film festival in Hollywood at the end of April: http://www.tcm.com/festival/<br />
I definitely want to go. They are going to play Top Hat, among other films that would be fun to see. They are screening at Grauman's, the Egyptian, and other venues.<br />
It's pretty expensive though, and I don't know if you can pay for individual tickets because I've only seen the passes so far.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-612624114551645662010-03-05T01:22:00.000-08:002010-03-05T01:23:03.655-08:00Late Night ChatterOkay there's something I wanted to post since basically Christmas but I keep forgetting the book at home. Meanwhile, madness ensues at school. For some reason, someone thought it was a good idea to have room sign ups and class sign ups as finals are approaching. My good friend (and roommate for next year) and I had a mini freak out because there were no doubles left by the time it was are turn to sign up. She kept texting me in a panic while I was trying to watch Chinatown in my film class. (I love that movie, BTW.) But anyway, we have a triple in a good dorm. Nobody has signed up to be a third wheel, so either we'll be getting a poor, random freshman, or nobody.<br />
<br />
Also had my first all-nighter ever Tuesday night! It was pretty thrilling actually. I sat in the lounge in my flannel pajamas with a bunch of guys who also had essays to write. Only three of us lasted through the whole night. We listened to the theme song of Rocky to motivate us, and I had some other songs to motivate me as well. Then there was a mini drama with my roommate who was annoyed that I entered the room at quarter to 7 to get ready for my 8AM class Wednesday. There are no common bathrooms, so I have to go into my room to use the bathroom and clean up. I'm not going to get into everything, but we can just leave it at the fact that she can be sort of ridiculous at times.<br />
<br />
I believe I lasted the longest though, because the two other guys napped. It was a record 41 hours of no sleeping for me! It was 30 when I travelled to China.<br />
<br />
Then of course we have me, my future roommate, and the guys we are pining after that are A- probably too old for us and B- something else. We decided that everything that seems to happen to us happens to the both of us, and now we are going through nearly identical guy issues.<br />
<br />
Well, that's the general overview of my life up 'til now. I have a VERY unfinished painting I started of Ginger. Maybe I'll finish it one day? I also did a black and white painting of William Powell and another one with Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly in it. I enjoy painting in black and white more so I can focus on the values without having to worry about the hues.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-286000351772642872010-02-26T11:16:00.000-08:002010-02-26T11:20:00.959-08:00For NowSubstitute for a post I've been meaning to do for a good month. I had promised Huey the next post was going to be about Ginger, but this wasn't what I had in mind. It's got Ginger though.<br />

Last Friday I found a penny on the ground which hopefully jump-started this good week. Today my friend from high school I haven't seen in forever is touring campus so I'm going to hang out with her. Last night was actually fun. I'm not taking art history. Only one hour of class today. I don't feel tired. Good things are everywhere this week. I'm so glad.<br />
<br />
Okay the next post IS going to be about Ginger. It is much delayed, but I was planning to post it earlier so I want to actually follow through and do it.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-27966214223261930052010-01-06T20:41:00.000-08:002010-01-06T20:41:32.941-08:00:(The worst days of my life are currently taking place. I'm not saying that like how angsty teens say that; I really mean that all areas of my life - school, work, friends, relationships - are stinking worse than the trash room at the end of the hall.

</div>Last week I found this one-piece and I was utterly beside myself with the bells of delight ringing in my ears! It was basically what I've been looking for in a jumper: high waisted, blouse-like upper half with sleeves, and airy shorts. It even has a cute little peter pan collar.<br />
<br />
And... I wore it today. At 9:30pm. Outside. In January.<br />
In Los Angeles of course. ;)<br />
Today though, it was unnaturally warm at night. Don't know what was up with that. I'm a cold-weather person. The only thing that makes me cheery about warm weather is finding cute things to wear. :)Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-65897852297541291882010-01-02T23:31:00.000-08:002010-01-02T23:32:53.621-08:00Christmas ThingsWell this took me forever to post. These are just some things I got for Christmas:<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01859.jpg" width="190" /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01861.jpg" width="190" /><br />
This is a really pretty nightgown set with stitched flowers on the bodice and shoulders of the outer piece.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01850.jpg" width="190" /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01854.jpg" width="190" /><br />
The items on the left are records that my mother decided to start collecting for me. She wants to get a player so we can listen to them! Books are to the right. Pretty self-explanatory.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01851.jpg" width="190" /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01849.jpg" width="190" /><br />
More paper goods. I already started playing Cheek to Cheek on the piano and ukulele. The cards are very neat. They are from my grandmother, and they are old photos from around where I live. Of the five big postcards showing, the one on the bottom right was written and dated 12/23/09. As in 1909, and it is a woman writing to her mother about getting on the train and Christmas plans, etc. Of the small cards, the one pictured on the left (I know these are hard to see, but...) is of Exposition Park and the Natural History Museum (where I work in the summer)!<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01856.jpg" width="190" /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01855.jpg" width="190" /><br />
This book is full of odd quotations, but the drawings have a very clean art deco feel to them. The gingerbread-shaped cooking pan to the right is pretty exciting - I can't wait to use this next year.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01863.jpg" width="190" /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/DSC01847.jpg" width="190" /><br />
The jewelry on the left are vintage items from my grandmother, and the ones on the right are all brooches from my mother's job.<br />
<br />
Also, surprise surprise, I have two new perfumes:<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/o5271.jpg" width="190" /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/parisienne.jpg" width="190" /><br />
Lollia's Breathe and YSL's Parisienne<br />
And to a certain someone: NO, I do not bathe in it, and NO I am not stinky. They smell good and light.<br />
<br />
Everything else was either less exciting (things I needed), more personal, or silly to photograph, like gift cards.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-32362322562795999842009-12-30T18:36:00.000-08:002009-12-30T18:36:53.683-08:00Sandrich Being Sour<i>"Apparently Ginger used to bombard Newman with all sorts of crazy ideas for dresses, including a bizarre ‘granite’ costume and even a gown made of mirrors – to which RKO director Mark Sandrich apparently remarked, ‘Ginger, we can’t use it. You can see the camera reflected in your tits’. It is said she stormed off set after that, and quite right too."</i><br />

This is from <a href="http://clothesonfilm.com/swing-time-ginger-rogers-day-dress/1257/" target=_blank>Clothes on Film</a>, so take a look at the whole post if you are interested in A) Clothes, B) Film, C) Ginger's dress in Pick Yourself Up.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-91183359132795106642009-12-24T01:18:00.000-08:002009-12-29T23:49:42.746-08:00Things That Smell Good!<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/smellsgood.jpg" target=_blank><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/smellsgood.jpg" width=400></a><br />
I call it a "Things That Smell Good" post. The perfume bottle is Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf Eau de Parfum, the soap (which is what has been making my room smell so good, and it's sitting unopened on my table) is Mistral Lychee and Rose soap. The hand cream is Caswell-Massey Dr. Hunter Hand Creme with rosewater and glycerine. I love rosewater! At one of my friend's parties over the summer, we ate at I <i>think</i> and Indian restaurant and they had warm rosewater to wash our hands with and it smelled so good. I want to take a bath in it. Maybe you can tell, but I like flowery fragrances.<br />
<br />
Oh and PS: this will definitely be my last post before Christmas, so Merry Christmas everyone, or happy holidays, and Happy New Year if I don't post again before then!Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-63542570453812670392009-12-20T02:02:00.001-08:002009-12-21T17:57:48.512-08:00More Photos (Old)I'm finally getting some more of this stuff uploaded. These are all from high school. <br />
<br />
<img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/potatoessmall.jpg" /> <br />
I printed this once, and there was a fix stain on the print, and then the print got lost... <br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
The above is an inversion from the negative I scanned a while ago. I don't know where the negative is, but I hope I can find it because this picture looks so much better when you can see the detail. I think these are some kind of yam/potato type items... I'm not sure though. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/Holga.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/Holga.jpg" width="400" /></a> <br />
I took these on my Holga camera. If you aren't familiar, it's a plastic toy camera that is used by artists to create some unexpected effects. <br />
<img src="http://nothingrelevant.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/holga.jpg" /> <br />
There is a glazed, dream-like quality about the prints, and the random light leaks on the edges are due to the plastic construction. The bottom two of this series are double exposures. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/fadeaway.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/fadeaway.jpg" width="400" /></a> <br />
This is the back of my little sister. I tried to work it so her dress would fade into the sand. You can see the outline of her dress better upon looking at the actual print, so the fadeaway effect is really pronounced from the scan. My aunt used to collect postcards called 'fadeaways' where, usually, a woman's clothing blended in with the background, so this relates to that. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/seal.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/seal.jpg" width="400" /></a> <br />
This photo, along with the previous one, were printed on matte paper. And I mean really matte. I was debating hand-colouring these two but never got around to it. I'm not good at hand-colouring at all. That's why I'm so amazed at Maria's pictures she colours of Fred and Ginger. I'm just awful at it. I get it outside the lines, in looks uneven and messy, and the list goes on. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/animals.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/animals.jpg" width="400" /></a> <br />
This is from the summer of 2007 when I took a colour photo class. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/BunnyandWhistle.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/BunnyandWhistle.jpg" width="400" /></a> <br />
I was playing around with flash, trying to wash out the colours and get starkness. Sort of like Marc Jacobs ads I suppose. The one on the right I gave to my grandmother for Easter. They were both taken in her house, and she hung the rabbit photo right above the bucket where the rabbits are. It looks cute altogether. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/dakota.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/dakota.jpg" width="400"" /></a> <br />
My uncle's dog. He looks sweet, but is far from that. He unfortunately was never trained correctly, and when my uncle got him (I think the dog was... 2 maybe?) he never played with him. So minimal human contact didn't help his demeanor. I refuse to be in the same room as this dog, especially because he bites. I took this while I was inside and he was outside. I think this merits an explanation because when my friends saw this picture, they melted over the 'cute dog.' I explained that it wasn't what it seemed. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/leaves.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Work/leaves.jpg" width="400" /></a> <br />
Plants outside grandma's house. This one was a bear (as Huey would say) to colour correct. So the difference between printing in black and white and in colour is that while you are exposing the paper in colour, there is no safety light. It is 100% dark, so your eyes don't adjust, since there's nothing to adjust to. It's sort of fun though, trying to feel around for the paper and hope it's centered. Then there are little knobs on the enlarger for Yellow, Cyan, and Magenta. And you adjust those knobs to alter the colour. You have to train your eye to see when the colour is balanced. I got pretty decent at it during that month. Maybe it helped that I was a woman, because I feel as though this would be a harder for a man to colour correct since they don't notice different shades as well as females. I'm not out to offend anyone, but I believe it's a biological thing.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-50515518474739262662009-12-18T02:34:00.001-08:002009-12-20T10:53:54.548-08:00Other PhotosSo I finally got around to posting items of photo-like substance on here. I edited these digitally since I don't have access to a lab right now. I don't usually do much on the computer leave rudimentary tasks, so these could probably be better.<br />As always, click for a bigger image.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Langendorf-1.jpg"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Langendorf-1.jpg" width=400></a><br /><br /><a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/SeaBooze.png"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/SeaBooze.png" width=400></a><br /><br />And here's a Halloween photo for good measure.

This is monumental, namely because I haven't had arch support in a shoe since maybe 6th grade. And since my mother threw out my arch inserts (that my aunt gave me to try) because they were still in the shoes she hated so much she tossed without looking, there went that. But anyway, the shoes have some solid arch support! Is that normal?<br /><br /><center><a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Newshoes.png"><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/Newshoes.png" width="400" /></a><br /><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Click for larger image.</span></i></center><br /><br />And so I was messing around on Photoshop so I could stick all the pictures together. The upper right corner looked disgustingly barren, so I thought of putting my name there. But I really needed something square, so I stuck a picture in lieu of name. It really has nothing to do with the shoes, it was more of an aesthetic choice. Which segues perfectly into my next post, which I was inspired to work on. Why now, I don't know, since I have so much to do tomorrow, but there are just some things that cannot be explained.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-14805317566452918342009-12-03T21:58:00.000-08:002009-12-20T10:54:46.000-08:00Birthday Essence1.

Staying up 'til 6am three nights in a row when class is at 8? I had to hurry in the end. Actually, the 'first of all' should be the fact that I've never made a box before. I don't know if I've even cut wood before. Either way, it was pretty shoddy construction, so I tried to mask that by covering the entire thing in beads, which is a bit shoddy itself. The one thing I am proud of is the silver and gold design on the box. That's the part that really took forever anyway. My photos aren't the best because the lighting wasn't working with me (please note my Bruin blue nails :) ).<br /><br />What Mr. jwalker was doing last Friday: <object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Jo58xkaADzc&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Jo58xkaADzc&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object><br /><br />Also, thank you Gingerella for the award!

I got excited because I always wanted to know what sort of a personality she had. At first my mom starts going on about how she looked (typical). But then she told me her boss said Ginger was very friendly and down-to-earth, which is how I imagined she'd be. She still carried a child-like enthusiasm and was eager to meet someone new. I felt reassured to learn this because it solidified my high opinion of her.<br />Oh, and regarding the title of this post, they ate Chinese.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-77967261903303892142009-11-22T16:59:00.000-08:002009-12-20T10:56:09.692-08:00Ginger Rogers article in People<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/GRarticle.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px;" src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/19950508-750-241.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />I've never seen/read this before - I just discovered it!

Thanksgiving, my birthday, Christmas! Right now I'm hoping I can get tickets to the UCLA-USC football game, but it's chancey.<br /><br />Anyway, for my wishlist part 1, I am currently in love with the majority of the beauty products at Anthropologie. <br /><center><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/79716_ins_b.jpg"></center><br />I am always enamored by their vintagey design! I looked online, but their selection isn't as big there as in the store.<br />I like perfume a little too much, but it always looks so cute in the bottle! It's usually way very expensive so I can't afford that many. I mostly use Flowerbomb now.<br /><br />And to tangent, I bought the Winter air freshener from Bath and Body Works (the one that smells like the best of all things Christmas in liquid form?) and I can't stop inhaling deeply. It smells so good. I love that store. Rarely do I come out of there empty handed. I think I will add a gift card to here for my wishlist. Actually, for gift cards, I would probably want them from the following places:<br /><br />B&B Works<br />Anthropologie<br />Urban Outfitters<br />Forever 21 (I tell you this store is a gold mine if you can spot the classy from the trashy items)<br />Sephora<br />H&M<br /><br />Now for a tangent upon tangent (it's what I do best) I need to figure out what exactly to buy other people. And also some have requested artwork, so I may take that route for more presents. Which in my case means I need to run down to Samy's and buy some black & white film. and some frames, or other items to embellish it. I LOVE working with colour slides because everything is just so vivid! I took a picture of my youngest sister with colour slide film and it came out bursting with colour because of the contrast of her red dress, the lime green balloon animal/hat she wore, and the blue pool in the background. I actually have no idea where the picture is right now. It must be somewhere around my house.<br /><br />Alright, scooting along the tangent line (oh dear only I would say that) this quarter is almost over, I have a lot of reading and studying to do, but hopefully it won't eat up all of my time. My goal is to get through 61 pages of my art textbook reading... maybe 100 since I have a lot and only two days. On Monday I have to actually start working on my sculpture! I'm making molds of my hand with alginate (it's the same as that puffy, gooey stuff dentists use to make molds of your teeth. (I always gagged during the bottom mold.) Then I'm filling the mold with wax, which I'll have to heat... somehow. And I haven't decided if I want to do anything about the fingernails of the hand molds, because mine aren't in the best shape right now. I bet the sculpture professor would love to know that I'm even thinking about something like that, but it's just a part of my multi-faceted personality! :)Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-89844274047981699742009-11-09T03:09:00.000-08:002009-12-20T10:56:42.905-08:00Art Deco HollywoodHere is a little bit of video I just discovered on YouTube about art deco's history.

I'm not exactly sure what kind of award it is since the text on the image is too small for me to read (I sound old) but I think I have a handle on what to do!<br /><br /><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w5BUWkJHrKw/SuY1YzUrs2I/AAAAAAAAFUE/oylVzwzVqRw/s800/Premio_Meme_Award.jpg"><br /><br />a) Nominate three more blogs for the award<br />b) Answer a few questions about myself<br /><br />1. <a href="http://noodleinahaystack.blogspot.com/">A Noodle in a Haystack</a><br />2. <a href-"http://someparade.blogspot.com/">Some Parade</a><br />3. <a href="http://finding-ginger.blogspot.com/">Finding Ginger</a><br />I don't think any of these blogs will be posting all too often at the moment, but hey. ;)<br /><br />What's your current obsession?<br />Shopping at vintage fashion expos. They are so great because everything is right there, and unlike a flea market, you <i>know</i> it's going to be vintage!<br /><br />What's your zodiac sign?<br />Sagittarius, the hardest one to spell. I really don't know anything about my sign, except for the fact that it's some half-man creature.<br /><br />What am I wearing today?<br />Right now I'm wearing a little red and white striped sun dress that has small black flowers on it. I just realized the flowers are so spread out. Also, it <i>is</i> hot enough to be wearing this sun dress today.<br /><br />What's your latest purchase?<br />A cigarette case.<br /><br />What do you have for dinner?<br />Usually a lot of vegetables and sometimes pasta.<br /><br />What's your favourite decade?<br />1930s 100%! Bias dresses I love. After putting one on you have the urge to spin around and dance. (I did that a little after trying one on in the dressing room of one of the expos.)<br /><br />What are your must haves for summer?<br />Sunglasses and a hat, yet both of those items are broken. :(<br />Also, ice cream, and cute sandals! My sandals are also broken. :( Good think ice cream can't exactly break, otherwise I'm sure I would have broken it by now, too.<br /><br />What is your favourite piece in your closest?<br />Hm. I really like this sheer, bias, early 40s dress I have. I also like my velvet 30s dress that I posted about. I also like Ginger's skirt and gloves, which I posted about as well. I also like my two silk scarves from China. I love a lot of my shoes. How do I decide?<br /><br />What is your dream job?<br />Being the costume designer for period piece movies. :) <br /><br />What's your favourite magazine?<br />I guess Vogue because I see the photo shoots as art versus advertisements for clothing. I also like some of the old LIFE magazines. <br /><br />What do you consider a fashion no-no?<br />Bubble tops. I have one, but I always hide it by tucking it in. I personally think they look unflattering on people, but I think that's because I am drawn more to thinks that hug my waist and don't really enjoy looking pregnant when I'm not.<br /><br />Describe your personal style?<br />Anything that has a vintage feel. I look for key aspects, such as ruffles, dots, peter pan collars, lots of buttons, cinching at the waist, bias, in modern clothing.<br /><br />Who was your favourite Beatle?<br />Ringo!<br /><br />What are you proud of?<br />Having the ability to think for myself and not always follow others, and having possessed this ability a lot longer than other people my age.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14920368438562815477noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83464697492715241.post-7850735072572072712009-10-25T20:16:00.000-07:002009-12-20T10:57:16.408-08:00WWII KissI can't believe I've never posted about this picture. The famous WWII Kiss photograph, taken during the Times Square celebration after Japan's surrender to the Allies, is so completely brimming with emotion, energy, and enthusiasm that it can only make me smile when I look at it.
<br />
<br /><img src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a15/tistj/b45cee6654d5fd07_landing.jpg">
<br /><blockquote>Location: New York, NY, US
<br />Date taken: August 14, 1945
<br />Photographer: Alfred Eisenstaedt</blockquote>
<br />
<br />These were just two random, ordinary people who came out to celebrate a victory. I find it an even sweeter image knowing that the act was unplanned and just a thrill of the moment type of action. LIFE Magazine attempted to locate the kissing pair about 20 years after the photo was taken. Multiple people claimed to be the sailor or nurse, but nobody (not even the photographer) was truly sure who the people were. One woman, Edith Shain, wrote a letter to LIFE claiming to be the woman in the photo, and she has been the favoured candidate over the years.
<br />
<br />Here is a short interview with Miss Shain from BBC News in 2008:

The good ones liven up a movie, and they feel like old friends joining you in a new plot line.<br />Anyway I was looking at previous events at the Billy Wilder theatre and discovered that they had a special event dedicated to character actors! I would have loved to see these movies on the big screen!<br /><br /><div style="overflow:auto;height:300px;"><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "><tbody><tr><td style="width: 20px; height: 20px; "></td><td style="height: 20px; "></td></tr><tr><td></td><td valign="top"><table id="pnlContainer" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" style=" font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><tbody><tr><td><p style=" font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><span class="CalendarDetailSeriesDate" style=" font-weight: normal; font-size:16px;">5.5.06 - 6.7.06</span><br /><span class="CalendarDetailSuperTitle" style=" font-weight: bold; color: rgb(83, 104, 149); font-size:12px;">Dini and Les Ostrov and the UCLA Film & Television Archive present</span><br /><span class="CalendarDetailSeriesTitle" style=" font-weight: bold; font-size:16px;">ROUND UP THE USUAL SUSPECTS!: CELEBRATING HOLLYWOOD'S CLASSIC CHARACTER ACTORS</span></p><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="12px" style=" font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">As the Hollywood studio system grew in the 1920s, thousands of actors came to Los Angeles. Only a few would become household names, but some lucky others would find constant work and studio contracts as supporting players. Often these actors were too old, too "foreign" or simply not considered attractive enough to be romantic leads—not to mention the legions of black, Asian and Latino actors whose ethnicity limited them to bit parts. Among these actors were those who managed to project a particular, instantly recognizable personality from picture to picture, becoming familiar and beloved figures. These supporting players became known as "character actors."</p><p face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="12px" style=" font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">Rather than playing leading ladies and gentlemen, these actors inhabited a colorful array of roles as relatives, friends, neighbors, co-workers, servants and the like for the leads. While the names attached to their roles would change from film to film, and while the style might vary from the comic to the dramatic, character actors developed finely honed personalities that would remain more or less constant. Actors like Edward Everett Horton, Eric Blore, Alice Brady, William Demarest, S.Z. Sakall, Marjorie Main and Eugene Pallette were familiar and beloved faces (if not always names) for moviegoers in the 1930s and 1940s.</p><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "></p>While there are still actors today who are considered character actors, the heyday of the character actor was the height of the studio system from the advent of sound through World War II. It is this period that we will feature in our series. We will focus on films containing notable performances by a handful of character actors, including films with large supporting casts, like CASABLANCA, in which the character actors form a kind of community around the romantic leads. And then there are the directors like Frank Capra, Howard Hawks and Preston Sturges who formed a kind of stock company out of the supporting players they used again and again. We hope to highlight the variety and the unique contributions of a group of American actors who played everything from the screwballs of 1930s screwball comedy to the colorful types who inhabited the urban intrigues of 1940s Warner Bros. films.<p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "></p><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "><i>Special thanks to</i>: Philip Ituarte.</p></div><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "> </p><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "><a name="screening_745"></a><span class="CalendarDetailScreeningDatetime" style=" color: rgb(83, 104, 149); font-weight: bold; font-size:14px;">Friday May 19 2006, 7:30PM <span class="CalendarDetailScreeningTicketing" style=" color: rgb(83, 104, 149); font-weight: bold; font-size:10px;">( <a class="CalendarDetailScreeningTicketingDisabledLink" href="javascript:ticketingwindow=open('./SalesEnded.htm','SalesEndedExplanation','location=no,menubar=no,status=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=300,height=200');ticketingwindow.focus();" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; color: gray; text-decoration: underline; ">Online Ticket Sales Ended</a> )</span></span><br /></p><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "><a name="feature_1509"></a><span class="CalendarDetailSuperTitle" style=" font-weight: bold; color: rgb(83, 104, 149); font-size:12px;">Beautiful Nitrate Print!</span><br /><span class="CalendarDetailFeatureTitle" style=" font-weight: bold; font-size:14px;">TROUBLE IN PARADISE</span><br /><span class="CalendarDetailBody" style=" ;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;">(1932) Directed by <a class="ProfessionalLink" href="javascript:detailswindow=open('professionaldetails.aspx?id=2877','_blank','menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,width=450,height=350');detailswindow.focus();" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(83, 104, 149); text-decoration: none; ">Ernst Lubitsch</a></span></p><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">Sexual innuendo meets Continental sophistication in this romantic farce produced during the more permissive days before the enforcement of the Hays Production Code. Miriam Hopkins and Herbert Marshall shine as a pair of con artists intent on separating widow Mariette Colet (Kay Francis) from her fortune in cash and jewels. Love-weary Mariette's suitors are a pair of bickering dandies (played by Charlie Ruggles and Edward Everett Horton) who only add to her weariness. Besides a stoical C. Aubrey Smith (with his trademark bushy eyebrows) as the businessman Giron and Hollywood butler par excellence Robert Greig, watch for Leonid Kinskey in an uncredited cameo as a communist radical. With its witty dialogue and inventive strokes of visual humor, TROUBLE IN PARADISE is often regarded as Ernst Lubitsch's finest film and the acme of classical Hollywood comedy.</p></div><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">Paramount.

ANOTHER THIN MAN was the third in the series; the title refers to Nick and Nora's newborn son. Parenthood doesn't slow these two much, as they investigate a murder during a weekend on Long Island. One hallmark of the series was the large cast of suspects for each case, including society swells, tough guys, fallen women and rogues. The suspects here include C. Aubrey Smith, Nat Pendleton, Otto Kruger, Abner Biberman and Sheldon Leonard.

To procure a divorce from her stuffy geologist husband, Mimi (Rogers) must get caught in the act with the aid of a professional gigolo (the hilarious Erik Rhodes) whom she has never met, leading her to wrongly identify hoofer Guy Holden (Astaire) as her man.

Rumblings of labor unrest prompt him to go undercover as an employee in the store, where he's given a lesson in class-consciousness by Jean Arthur. While Arthur has a romantic partner in the form of Robert Cummings, the two are evenly matched by Coburn and his love interest, famed character actress Spring Byington. The rest of the cast is replete with such familiar and beloved faces as Edmund Gwenn, S.Z. Sakall and William Demarest.</p></div><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">RKO.

Alice's mother writes plays, her father makes fireworks in the basement and her sister and brother-in-law spend most of their time singing and dancing. The family's cook, boarders and friends add to the mixture of vivid personalities living together in benevolent chaos. But Tony's father (Edward Arnold) has secret plans to acquire Grandpa Vanderhof's home and land, threatening to displace this harmonious commune. Frank Capra often populated his films with scores of memorable character actors, and this Academy Award winner for Best Picture boasts one of his most exuberant casts.</p><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; "><b>In person: Producer/screenwriter Victoria Riskin, daughter of screenwriter Robert Riskin</b></p></div><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">Columbia.

She hires Godfrey to serve as the family butler where he soon establishes himself as the wisest member of a nutty household.

She fills him in on the slang he needs for his research, and in the process, opposites attract. They have only two problems: the police and Dana Andrews as Stanwyck's gangster boyfriend. The classic Hawksian setup (the disruption of an all-male group by a woman who's one of the boys) is knowingly fleshed out by Billy Wilder and Charles Brackett's script, complete with snappy dialogue and double entendres. The plot gives Hawks the license to deploy not just one but two teams of character actors: the professors and the gangsters. Among the former are Oscar Homolka, Henry Travers, Richard Haydn and (once again) Leonid Kinskey and S.Z.

Starring Claudette Colbert and Joel McCrea, THE PALM BEACH STORY is a romantic comedy employing the typical screwball situation wherein a separated couple is reunited. The film's charm is exceeded only by its hilarity, which is largely supplied by such Sturges stalwarts as hardboiled wisecracker William Demarest and fussbudget Franklin Pangborne. However, as the Wienie King, the otherwise little-known Robert Dudley steals every scene in which he appears.</p></div><div class="CalendarDetailBody" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><p style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration: none; ">Paramount.
