You're old, and you're getting foolish, and you've made a mistake! It's me you should have hung! Because now I hate you in a way I didn't know a human could hate. Take a good, long look at me, T.C. You won't see me again until the day I take your world away from you!

Barbara Stanwyck as Vance Jeffords in THE FURIES (1950) dir. Anthony Mann

This is a really poignant illustration of the seductive nature of glorifying war but that is a LOOK and she is SERVING it

I've seen Death depicted as a card dealer or other sort of gambler, a guy in a suit, a farmer, a robed apparition, and any other number of things, but this? This has to be the best Death I've seen yet. An old seductress saying "hey kid, don't you wanna die in a trench for a government that doesn't give a fuck about you, just like your dear old dad?" This goes hard as fuck.

Hmm i need to know more about the all gay pool party at Kay Francis’ house in the 1930s

[jazz-vampire]

I have this book! Sadly, there is no more info on these pool parties. But Kay is mentioned a few more times, in regards to lavender marriages and being a regular at Lilyan Tashman's parties.
