Worth it alone for the costumes and the glory of Technicolor, and to see that yes, Ava Gardner really was that breathtakingly beautiful. Also I had no idea that at least 2 major scenes would involve a race car???
Forever iconic. This movie has everything—Bette Davis, homoerotic obsession, a scene-stealing cameo from a little-known up-and-coming actress named Marilyn Monroe…
I never hear a thing about this movie and it’s been a favorite of mine since I was a kid.
Elizabeth Hurley as the devil?! Fundamentally changed me 🥵
And Brendan Fraser, America‘s sweetheart, plays I think 8 different characters??
A true masterpiece of a romcom and it deserves some attention!!!
And FIVE were selected for publication in the latest issue of artdoc magazine, two in their online exhibition :) I wrote my artist statement in 30 seconds because I didn’t even imagine it would be seen. I’ve struggled with confidence in my creative vision and sharing my work recently, so this is an amazing way to close out the year 🌀🦋
The internet archive is just the greatest thing ever, i love it for the ephemeral films and lost home videos, old religious and esoteric manuscripts, textbooks, nasa photos, centuries’ worth of magazine issues, old records, lectures…. 💌
