My Favourite Button Ever Is "open Link In New Tab"..

Butterfield 8 - 1960

the first film I saw Norma Shearer in was The Women and I think that negatively coloured my perception of her for years (decades?) because I thought she was the worst one in that (Paulette Goddard, Rosalind Russel, and Joan Crawford outshine her completely and when I saw the film as a teen I found her matronly and submissive). Watching her pre-code films now is wild, she's so sexy and cool! This is a problem I've had with a lot of actresses who took up more "good woman" roles in the late 30s and 40s (eg Claudette Colbert or Myrna Loy) because when I first got into classic films as a teen, I could not relate to those women or their characters and found them old and stodgy. Similarly I always thought actors like Gary Cooper or Cary Grant in the 1940s were so ancient and couldn't believe any woman would be attracted to a man that old

New York overwhelmed me. For the first few weeks I only strayed a couple of blocks from my hotel off Times Square. I would see three movies a day in an attempt to escape my loneliness and depression. I spent $150 of my limited funds just on seeing movies. - James Dean
