Burning with optimism's flames...away, away! I find myself a happy Goth bug who is walking in like some one else again. There is a new girl, it's crazy!
Funny never mentioned the car crash, I knew her for fifty years. Even discussed the book and movie, CRASH along with the ex! I was there. Down in the Park (1998 Remaster) https://t.co/FUmAGFi65Z via @YouTube
Uncommon Paramount publicity portrait of Harpo from "Animal Crackers" (1930). After his bright red stage wig didn't photograph differently from his brothers' hair colors in the black-and-white "The Cocoanuts," he switched to this strawberry blond variant to convey a lighter hue.

Remembering Anna May Wong, born on today's date in 1905 -- the same year as my grandmother. I love her in Piccadilly (1929) and Shanghai Express (1932), and in one of my guilty pleasure movies, Island of Lost Men (1939).
