You're overacting, Jerry.

Hello, my name is Angelica and I'm just a random history freak who likes the occasional old Hollywood-movies, but rarely post anything else than Martin & Lewis-related things when the university isn't taking up all of my time. Other actors I enjoy although I don't post about them a lot are Bing Crosby, Robert Mitchum, John Payne, Gregory Peck and Errol Flynn. ♥

Happy Birthday, Dean Martin! On this day in 1917 a boy named Dino Paul Crocetti was born in Steubenville, Ohio. And what a boy! If there’s a God above, he must have been in great spirits that day. There’s not enough words to describe Dean and all his talent - as a singer, comedian, actor and as a person. There’s such a genuine warmth surrounding Dean and he seemed like such a kind, humble and gentle soul. Because of his beautiful personality, it’s such a shame that he was greatly overlooked and underrated.    Today there’s so many persons like myself discovering Dean and his work, finding a true treasure chest of joy. If Dean can feel the warmth of our appreciation and admiration today, I’m very sure he’s smiling up there. Happy Birthday, darling!  ♥

A nice message came through . .

I was tagged by theprofessionaljerk to say 5 nice things about myself publicly and then send it to ten of my favorite followers - thank you for sending the challenge to me! :) I’m sorry that I’ve taken so long to do it but other things have slowed me down. But wow, is it a challenge. I don’t really think I have any positive qualities at all so trying to find five is going to be rather difficult. 1. I manage to get through adult-life (paying bills, full-time studying, cleaning, saving a little money every month, washing, cooking and what else with my two roommates) without falling flat on my face. I didn’t think I’d manage that before I moved away from home. 2. I’d like to think that I’m a decent student. Sure, I always say “Oh, I’d like to be in bed and not on campus, oh dear - another long lecture?! Another examination? I don’t want to do it!” but things get done in time and in the right way even when I tell myself that “I’m not gonna make it this time”. Somehow I end up on the right side of the deadline and the scale of grades. 3. According to my roommates, I make a decent swedish brownie/sticky brownie. At least it’s very sticky. 4. loveeverythingoldhollywood said “You’re nice!” from the other side of the sofa. So, I’m a nice person. 5. My taste in music and film is damn perfect. I’m not gonna tag anybody because I don’t know who’s done it already. Feel free to do it if you want to – there’s nothing wrong in tagging yourself. :)

Happy 89th birthday to the wonderful Jerry Lewis (March 16th 1926)

Okay today is a very special day for him and a shitty for me, because personal problems…but this person is everything it’s because of Jerry if I study cinema he give me the drive that I never got from my close friends and family. This man is so selfless and talented the only person who can’t make me happy no matter what. He proved to the world that he can do it all. So maybe I will have a Jerry marathon today to honoured his birthday. Great wishes xxx

     “Jerry has an inventive imagination. He can be what he wants to be—and only he knows what that may be…. If Jerry wants to write, he becomes a writer. If he wants to direct, he becomes a director. If he wants to be a star, that’s who he is. If he wants to turn everybody’s life upside down, he becomes a human tornado. He has the propensity to will himself in so many constructive as well as destructive ways.

     Like the proverbial wanderer, destined to lead a touch-and-go life, Jerry feels he can go anywhere he wants to and he’ll be there.” - Patti Lewis

HAPPY 89TH BIRTHDAY JERRY LEWIS!!! (March 16, 1926)

Happy 89th birthday, Jerry Lewis! ♥ What could you possibly say to do Jer justice? There's nothing he can't do if he wants to and he's done so many great things that the list could go on forever. If I had the possibility I'd thank him for everything he's done and for just being himself. He's such an inspiration - everytime I read a interview or listen to him talk about the most trivial subjects he never fails to amaze me with his charm, knowledge and intelligence.

  A superb actor, director, screenwriter and producer. A fantastic comedian with such versatility. Stand-up comedy, physical comedy, singing or dancing - nothing is too difficult. Impeccable charm combined with such presence and a brilliant, quick mind and so much talent it's not strange that he's been such a success. His engagement in fighting muscular dystrophy just makes him even more admirable. I can't even describe how much I love, respect and admire this man and I'm so thankful for all the work he's done. He's the source of so much happiness and laughter in my life. Jerry Lewis - a fantastic actor, producer, screenwriter, director, singer, comedian, author, humanitarian and a truly remarkable, inspirational personality. I wish he could feel the love from all of his fans on his special day. Today I hope he's able to have a fantastic time with his loved ones, take it easy (I don't think he can!) and eat a little too much birthday cake. There'll be another day for great achievements tomorrow. ♥
