Breakfast at Tiffany's or Roman Holiday? :)

tovintagewithlove: Hi, a while ago I saw on your James Dean blog that you hadn’t seen a Lana Turner movie yet. So I was going to suggest “The Postman Always Rings Twice". It’s an excellent film noir. It will actually be on TCM soon, if you’re interested. By the way I love your sidebar gif, haha. :)

Hi! Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely try and watch that soon! haha, thank you, I'm kind of obsessed with that gif and it just feels so appropriate for my blog ;)

35, 36, & 37 :)

35.Favorite type of fruit pie?

To be honest, I think I've only had peach, blueberry and apple pie so I don't want to make an official decision yet. From those I would pick apple pie, though.

36.Occupations you wanted to be when you were a kid?

None that I can recall. My sister wanted to be a pony when she grew up. That's kind of cute, right?

37.Do you believe in ghosts?

No.

tovintagewithlove replied to your post: ive been waiting like almost over 3 yrs now for...

I feel like we need more Maurice appreciation on tumblr :)

i'd think that someone with so long a career, and so beloved and prestigious a talent that was so, so widespread across the world, esp. solo, and so supernatural an ability to transcend the ravines that make interests and styles exclusive to generation--i'd think that that someone like that would be more of a persisting icon carrying over influence into today and i'm continuously surprised that there isn't a clamoring demand for him from the still-living persons he played to and appealed to across so so so many decades. especially since people seem to really really love Lubitsch and Gigi and the songs he made famous and the films he was part of

even if it's not for his work, his very life story and image are enough, i think, for some sort of ~resurrection. even just the straw boater with a tuxedo as an ensemble would be something i'd expected to have sort of have a second run specifically in his name

but also--i mean this is a man whose talents had no limits in the world of entertainment--song (ragtime, traditional ballad, jazz, anything) dance, vaudeville, film (any genre), television, nightclub, theater, Broadway over four consecutive decades, comedy/slapstick/parody... it goes on and on and on. and it did go on and on and on (in English and in French, no less, so that's an even broader influence there) from like, what, 1901 to 1970, so there's really ~~~~something for everyone~~~~

i mean he's a romantic leading man icon, a musical icon (in music and in musical films/theater), a French icon and an American icon, a style/fashion icon, a family film figure icon as well as a very sexually charged icon, an icon of both world wars, an icon of all realms of theater and all performing arts, an icon of turn of the century Paris, of la belle époque, of 1920s Paris, of ~~la vie de boheme~~...... it's madness that he's not on most paper currency imo

AND he has published memoirs covering two separate books from '49 and '70! and then some. so there's even a wealth of information straight from him 

always with my fingers crossed tbh! maybe the dvd release of Widow recently will help spur a little something further along, because that was first film i ever saw him in and i remember i definitely fell HARD in love like just half a second into his opening scene in the Girls Girls Girls march and it's still my all-time favorite of his films to this day so hopefully a lot of other people will have that too now that it's actually finally out on home video release and you don't have to spend weeks trying to find a torrent for it or months waiting for it to be shown on TCM in decent quality
