MJSweetChildofGod I thank you for your earnest reply, and for clarifying that not all starlets slept their way to the top. Ginger Rogers was, however, married 5 times, which doesn't give you much of a footing to suggest she is somehow more morally refined--if we are using Christian-supported morality, which frowns quite heavily on divorce. Yet you cite her lifestyle as admirable. So what makes you any more or less morally correct than someone who applauds swearing? Seems mighty backwards to me.

MJSweetChildofGod I'm afraid you've taken the story out of historical context. In her day, starlets had to sleep their way to the top (hence the term Casting Couch) & were treated like passive call-girls by the boy's club of Hollywood producers/directors. In our era her behavior may not call for respect, but in her time it was one of the few ways women could try to take a truly backwards world and straighten it out a little.

kind of disconcerting to hear all that filth coming out of their mouths. somehow you have this pristine view of them, but then you fkind out they were regular old, nasty human beings. i think i'll stick with the movie and avoid bloopers from now on.

[watchwinder]

I don't think human beings are nasty. We have flaws, we swear, we make mistakes. We also have the power to move emotions, inspire and bring great joy. The beauty of a blooper reel like this is the revelation that great performers are able to do all these things, when given the proper material. You do yourself a disservice by scoping your view to merely the sanitized, rather than embracing the wonder of the whole.

During that time, actresses were put down by sexists directors, so Carole asked her brothers to teach her every single cuss word they knew and she used them on her directors, whose respect and friendship she later won.

I think alot more kids of today would be interested in these films if they knew older generations of the past werent the unrelatable, finger shaking stereotypes older films make them out to be. I wish kids today could learn more about integrity as demonstrated by Powell's character Godfrey, but the censoring of things that naturally occur in human nature just makes it too alien for most youth to tolerate, so they flip the channel to something like "the Jersey Shore".

'Nuts! Son of a BITCH!' ~ 0:49 ~ Carole Lombard.

Oh God! I LOVE HER!!

It's interesting to see Carole go out of character when she messes up her lines.

[NatureFillsMe]

Carole Lombard is one of the persons I'd like to meet. I don't really know why, but she just looks like a smile-creater person. And I mean in and out of the set. Isn't it a shame that she died so young.?

I love you Carole Lombard !

Carole Lombard was so fantastic. God bless her and her swearing. Everyone take a shot for The Profane Angel, bitches!
