Film to purchase, works if you’ve already bought it.

Joey Evans (Frank Sinatra) is a philandering San Francisco-based singer with big dreams of starting his own night club, Chez Joey, but chasing women keeps him even more occupied. Despite making a meaningful connection with lovely chorus girl Linda English (Kim Novak), it doesn’t stop him from seducing the wealthy widow, and ex-burlesque dancer, Vera Simpson (Rita Hayworth), who he hopes will bankroll his club. Ultimately, Joey has to decide who — and what — he most wants in life.

Bands/Singers inspired by the 50’s

Sunday

A man seeks to take revenge of the death of his brother. Acting in public like a bumbling baffoon, he is really a leader of the French revolution.

Scaramouche ( 1952) on Daily Motion

As well as inspiring some food this year, (we got the banoffee pie from M & S, so you can get it too.) it is a brilliant film find – highly recommend – I hadn’t watched it before.

About

HOLLYWOOD PINUPS

Specializes in color enhanced interpretations of classic b&w silver screen images from the Golden Age of Hollywood, offering a new perspective in visual delight.

HOLLYWOOD PINUPS embraces the understanding that beauty truly lies in the eyes of the beholder and therefore offers both the original b&w and also the color enhanced version to suit each individual’s preference. The choice is yours, with an extensive range of print sizes to select from (8×10 right up to 24×30). Each image has been professionally scanned from the original source material (either vintage print or camera negative), digitally restored of any blemishes and printed by experienced technicians on Kodak Professional Endura Premier Paper (lustre finish), delivering pristine clarity throughout.

It has led to quite a lot of 50’s films, if you are into films I think the thing to do is watch the films then decide which photo or photos you like.

I’m not on comission but they are fairly priced unlike the ones for media.

Just as a price example:

Worth a browse:

hollywoodpinups.com

(If you are a fellow film blogger this site is a real find; it has the film name also, so you can find historic films. Quite a lot of work here ~ but this is what my film quest set off to do ~ goes back to 1910 ~ enjoy your film quests!!!)

Have a lovely weekend, you earned it.

Just add your favourite 50’s food and drink and enjoy!!!!

Next month is Alternative Glastonbury Party in July.

Saphire

(Usual TV loads up on Friday also.)
