I have not read BLONDE and will look into that, too. <br /><br />In the 50s an earlier Hollywood still existed and we seemed to drive over there a lot. Reading Chandler and immersion in my aunt's old Photoplay magazines hooked me for life. xoMarylinn Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759437467691163658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-48601414314746160952011-02-26T08:11:28.724-08:002011-02-26T08:11:28.724-08:00ps.

I longed for more images and less text since my brain was reading the text ahead of the voice but nonetheless what a terrific piece.<br /><br />I agree with you about Hollywood of the 30s and 40s a time that needs more scrutiny more (research?) that needs more light shed on it. Such a fierce and weird almost baroque era.<br />x<br /><br />ps. Have you read the book <i>Blonde</i> by Joyce Carol Oates? I bet you'd love it. It's by Joyce Carol Oates. I guess you could call it an historical novel about Marilyn Monroe but it is such a great period piece about Hollywood and the big studios.Radish Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06534752971317927559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2400078448867068387.post-26638767366869322172011-02-25T15:15:49.373-08:002011-02-25T15:15:49.373-08:00Donna - I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
