If you said you looked like one celebrity from the Golden Era...
it is very easy for people to dismiss very good looking fellas like Flynn as merely "pretty boys" ... but i think Mr. Flynn certainly proved his worth throughout his varied career! Mr, Flynn will always be in! ;)- kittypackard

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
yes, well ... the difference ... unfortunate as it is ... is that Summer didn't loveTom. As wonderful as he is, she simply didn't love him. She did, however, love the man she married. Such is life. i know, i know, it's quite unfair and irrational. But I do not think it is "unrealistic" in...- kittypackard

Agreed, C-Dot, about loving "everything Jean Harlow wore." Jean's my gal, and she still sets the bar (in my humble opinion) for '30s glam. This isn't her most glamarous outfit, but it's my favorite-- it positively SCREAMS 1934! :)- kittypackard

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
I also THOROUGHLY loved (500) Days of Summer-- I thought it to be one of the most realistic relationships I've seen on screen in a very, very long time. And I absolutely LOVED that it was a film set in LA without even ONCE referencing Hollywood!! FINALLY, a film set in LA that depicted the LA...- kittypackard

What was the last TV show you watched?
Going Hollywood Watched TCM's Marion Davies marathon. Definitely a treat to see King Vidor's "Show People" and "The Patsy," and then this fun little piece of early 30s fluff-- "Going Hollywood." Boy oh boy did Bing ever croon in that one!!- kittypackard
