Oh how I love a great old movie…

Watching Lana Turner in Madame X.  Talk about your glamour girls; she was so old school Hollywood. 

Years back I read everything available about yesteryear’s Queens of the Screen.  Turner’s real life was as colorful as her cinematic one.  Her teen-age daughter murdered Lana’s abusive mobster boyfriend. 

I loved Lana, but she was not my #1 favorite.  My top spot was shared by Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. 

Just about every movie those two made is on my greats list.

My clothes horse days are far behind me; my need for comfort too great.  But I do love how each scene brings another perfectly put together ensemble.  Hats, gloves, heels, bags, accessories to die for.  **sigh 

Ah the trial is about to start.  Gotta get out a hankie for this.

Ciao for now.
