Stylish camerawork, innovative special effects, and plenty of startling pre-Code touches make this the definitive screen adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s gothic classic, directed with typical panache by Rouben Mamoulian. criterionchannel.com/dr-jeky…

Remembering the brilliant comedienne Carole Lombard on her birthday. Gone too soon. She was wonderful as Maria Tura in Ernst Lubitsch's masterpiece To be or not to be. #carolelombard #happybirthday #oldhollywood #tobeornottobe #lubitsch #alejandromogolloart

I wrote this essay to mark the 80th anniversary of Carole Lombard's death, but it's really a celebration of her remarkable life. I'm sharing it here again in honor of her birthday: thescrewballgirl.com/2022/01…

My favorite film costume of all time is on display at the @AcademyMuseum: Barbara Stanwyck’s 2 piece dress designed by Edith Head for THE LADY EVE (‘41). The background & glare made pictures difficult, but it’s a beauty. 😍 I had no idea some of the beads are green & orange!
