On the set of Holiday
Amélie has a strange feeling of absolute harmony. It’s a perfect moment. A soft light, a scent in the air, the quiet murmur of the city. A surge of love, an urge to help mankind overcomes her.
It’s not perfect, but it’s real.
“I feel like you’re breathing helium and I’m breathing oxygen.”
Gloria Grahame in In a Lonely Place (1950)
What a loss to spend that much time with someone, only to find out that she’s a stranger.
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), Michel Gondry
Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina, 1954
Dean Martin enjoying the pool at home with his children, 1958.
He was not a great party-lover, which also endeared him to his children, and most parties, when I was small, found him sneaking up to my room like a conspirator and again dozing off on my bed. He was usually found out; someone would miss him, and my poor mother then had to play the villain and come searching or him. Suddenly, her voice would be heard saying she hoped he was not in “that” child’s room at “this” time of night. We would giggle with our heads under the blankets, and he would beg me to hide him. This was obviously terrible for discipline, but wonderful fun for me.
“I never thought of the priesthood as offering a hiding place.”
Barbara Stanwyck and Robert Taylor
