My 1st Blog Award!
I received my first blog award from Betsy over at Gingerella's Corner. It's really encouraging to know that people actually read your stuff and like it. :) Thanks so much Betsy! She's got a really neat blog herself with lots of great Ginger pics and pinups, so go check her out!
First of all, congratulations on the award! You have a great blog going here...and there's something about that header pic of Ginger...Linda Keene...she looks pretty ticked off about something...but devastatingly beautiful, as usual!
Also, just to let you know...
I have changed my 'title' to VKMfan from jwalker... thanks!
I'd like to invite you to check out mine -- it's called "Carole * Co." (in honor of Ms. Lombard, my all-time favorite actress). Lombard's life and times are the focal point, along with people she knew and/or worked with, but we cover many things related to classic Hollywood in general. We've been up since June 2007, with more than 1,000 entries, plenty of image of Lombard and others, and as of this writing 140 members. Please check us out at http://community.livejournal.com/carole_and_co/
Your blog is great! I love it's layout. I love Ginger: maybe you'd like to take a look at the post I just wrote about her and fred! http://ofilmequeviontem.blogspot.com/
I'm a native Floridian of the Melancholy/Idealist temperament who spends her time in part exploring and enjoying the world of classics in Hollywood, literature, history, and politics. I've been convinced that I was born too late since childhood.
Strangers When We Meet (1960)
Variety said that the film is "...easy on the eyes but hard on the intellect...an old-fashioned soap opera", and: "It is a rather pointless, slow-moving story, but it has been brought to the screen with such skill that it charms the spectator into an attitude of relaxed enjoyment, much the same effect as that produced by a casual daydream fantasy". Look for a post devoted to this movie coming soon!
_____________________________
Primrose Path (1940)
Ellie Mae (Ginger Rogers) lives on Primrose Hill with her good-hearted and fancy free mother, her drunken father, her younger sister (a young Joan Carroll who played Agnes in Meet Me In St. Louis) and a mean-spirited grandmother. The Hill is not a good part of town, however. When she meets and falls for a hard-working man, they marry and she hides her past from him. When he discovers the truth it jeopardizes their marriage.
Congratulations on your award - very well deserved! x
