I'm absolutely charmed by the early goldern era of movies. I love the 1930s film mostly, it was the Depression, but such talented musicals were made by the hundreds, evening gowns displayed luxury, and the most extravagant glamour, I'm so inspired by their amazing fashion. I adore the 1940s film for those people in the dark alleys & beautiful callous ladies of femme fatale and that whiff of smoke arise from cigarettes and Rita Hayworth twisting men on a string. I'm inspired by the 1950s film because of that glorious technicolor, those movies with warmth, glow, color, and flare. To see hollywood turn gloomy rainstorms into a wonderful moment of imaginate creativeness where Gene Kelly happily sang and danced in the rain. Finger waves, pencil skirts, dainty pumps, tap dancing & swing created an entirely different world.

5.'There you are, there's the modern woman for you. Women! What should we do without them? I tell you, I love everything about them, their touching loyalty, their astonishing self-sacrificing, their still more astonishing sacrificing of everybody else, their modesty, their conceit, their preposterous dress, their ridiculous hats! Their silly little handbags with their pathetic little bunch of things they carry around inside, little purses, mirrors, sticky lipsticks..'- Ralph Richardson [Q Planes 1939]

I loved your quotation collection. I think you had few days ago a list of oldie movies on your channel. Am I right? Did you removed it? Like you I love those oldies. I would love to have that list so I can find on the net. Cheers, Sophya
