Inspirations

So lately two blogs have really been inspiring me: All The Good Things and Via Margutta 51
Follow if you haven't yet, you won't  regret it!

I've been trying to come up with some ways to make the blog a bit more...colorful. With entertaining posts, and totally awesome polls! Hopefully you will see a bit more activity around here, HELP ME BRING SOME LIFE INTO IT!!!! Suggestions and requests are welcome, just email me at ALD1296@gmail.com

And now for a very famous Hollywood actress


Bette Davis: Considered one of the GREATEST actresses of all time, and I'm sure all of you have seen at least one movie with her, right?

Which is your favorite movie?

My personal favorite is June Bride which is one of the very few comedies she made. It was just incredibly good!

She was born April 5, 1908 and died on October 6, 1989, and according to one website made 121 movies. She was extremely talented and won the best actress Oscar twice.



There was also the constant battle between Joan Crawford and Bette, which resulted in several cutting quotes by Bette including this one: 
[commenting on the death of long-time nemesis Joan Crawford] "You should never say bad things about the dead, you should only say good . . . Joan Crawford is dead. Good."

Yeahhhh ouch huh? So despite the fact that they are all smiles in this picture, I can't help but notice they are very much forced. 

Have a great day everyone!

BIRTHDAY!

This Sunday was my birthday. I wanted to share these special gifts I got with you guys, I love them! I got a twenty Alfred Hitchcock movies collection(It only cost 4 bucks, can you believe it? :O Such a great deal!)
Then my cousin either printed out or developed a picture of Ginger Rogers for me! And without her even knowing Ginger's favorite color was pink, she put a pink frame! Haha I was pleasantly surprised :D

Have a great day everyone!
