it's such a bummer that losing control of your emotions only makes the entire situation worse in really embarrassing personal ways. losing control of my emotions should give me pyrokinesis.

This lovely crown was most likely made for 𝑯𝒆𝒏𝒓𝒚 𝑽 in 1989, where it was worn by Emma Thompson as Princess Katherine de Valois.   In 1992, it was used in 𝑪𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝑶𝒏 𝑪𝒐𝒍𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒖𝒔 by Holly Aird as Maria, though it is hard to clearly distinguish it with the additional adornment that it is worn with.   It appeared a third time in the 1998 film 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝑨𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒓, worn by Drew Barrymore as Danielle de Barbarac.   The piece was eventually sold by @prop_store! Visit them to learn more about how much it sold for!   Check out our website for more details about this spectacular piece: Bit.ly/Acces201

something I love about watching M*A*S*H, at least the early seasons, is when the characters laugh. Something silly will set Hawkeye or Trapper off and they will cackle long and loud, full belly laughs, and it sounds so genuine. I feel like TV characters don't laugh like that anymore
