It would be rather neat to have a series of these types of drawings framed and hung in a (cinema lover's, not a gamer's) media room! They are fascinating conversation pieces. Thanks! ;-)Poseidon3https://www.blogger.com/profile/10465785002285422594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-37245808655726476762014-03-14T12:38:20.670-04:002014-03-14T12:38:20.670-04:00Joel, thank you so much for clearing up that Miche...Joel, thank you so much for clearing up that Michele Morgan thing!! I appreciate that a lot. Also, I do agree with you about Zsa Zsa (and today's tabloid celebs.) I was just sort of suggesting that this sort of thing was done long before (and far better!) Thank you!Poseidon3https://www.blogger.com/profile/10465785002285422594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-7178170786806255522014-03-06T20:13:38.053-05:002014-03-06T20:13:38.053-05:00What marvelously bizarre cards!!

She is a semi professional painter and one of her specialties is paintings of fish owing to the fact that she's a Pisces. In an unrelated side note during her brief Hollywood career she had the French farm house built at 10050 Cielo Drive that was the tragic setting of the Sharon Tate murders.<br /><br />Zsa Zsa is famous for being famous true but unlike the trash that passes for celebrities today she had several thing they never will. Class, wit, a droll attitude, dignity and when cast properly an amusing comic talent-small but serviceable. <br /><br />They are all pretty terrific but my favorites are: <br /><br />Elizabeth Taylor(wonderfully ghoulish), Belinda Lee and Dawn Addams(I know they were well known then but so wonderfully random now),Jean Marais, Bing, Charles Laughton(so simple yet accurate) and that Garbo drawing is everything.<br /><br />I second the idea of a Belinda Lee bio pic! You just can't make a life like hers up! I could see Saoirse Ronan, Diane Kruger or maybe even Scarlett Johansson tearing up the screen with a story like that. joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006108502645191096.post-37275269293042620362014-03-06T16:57:54.652-05:002014-03-06T16:57:54.652-05:00As much as I like the Zsa Zsa and Sophia*...if I h...As much as I like the Zsa Zsa and Sophia*...if I had to hang one on my wall, from an artistic point of view, I think I would go with the Anita Ekberg.<br /><br />*and speaking of Sophia, if you're a fan and are unfamiliar with her recordings of "Mambo Bacan" or "Bing, Bang, Bong", they are definitely worth listening to at least once.Knuckles Girlyskirthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18113945990776276595noreply@blogger.com
