Propaganda

Gale Storm (Abandoned, Between Midnight and Dawn, Foreign Agent)—Amazing stage name

Brigitte Bardot (Contempt, And God Created Woman)—unbelievable charisma off the charts, post-war France could barely handle her because she just radiates sexuality in the deepest, hottest way. i've never seen a woman who fit so clearly in my head the "beautiful woman" category. also i'm including her little suit number because why not [linked below]

This is round 1 of the bracket. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

[additional propaganda submitted under the cut.]

Brigitte Bardot propaganda:

"Los Angeles Times in 2011 ranked her as the second most beautiful woman in film, she won a David di Donatello award and was nominated for a BAFTA. Literally nicknamed a sex kitten, she used her fame to promote animal rights. And God Created Woman was so scandalous to US audiences that some theater managers were arrested for screening it"

"She was a sex symbol and her style is influential even today"

"She's just so iconic! Wikipedia extracts because why not : "In 2011, Los Angeles Times Magazine's list of "50 Most Beautiful Women in Film" ranked her number two" "The Guardian named Bardot "one of the most iconic faces, models, and actors of the 1950s and 1960s" "According to the liner notes of his first (self-titled) album, musician Bob Dylan dedicated the first song he ever wrote to Bardot. " I mean of course she is iconic in France, but she inspired many women outside of France"

"She wasn't just a sex symbol because men found her attractive and then that imagine of her was further promoted. But she was actually one of (if not) the first women to stand for emancipated women in a sexual way in a time when women were considered to mainly exist to please their man. She was famous for portraying women who lived their sexuality for their own pleasure and knew what they wanted. Very important! And also what's hotter than a woman driving men wild because they don't even know how to handle a woman with her own ideas and needs lol"

Charles Farrell

Charles David Farrell (August 9, 1900 – May 6, 1990) was an American film actor whose height was in the 1920s and 1930s and the Mayor of Palm Springs from 1947 to 1955. Farrell was known for his onscreen romances with actress Janet Gaynor in more than a dozen films, including 7th Heaven, Street Angel, and Lucky Star.

He was a popular Hollywood leading man, first silent and then early talkie movies. By the end of the 30's, Farrell's star diminished but in 1938, he with several partners founded the fabled Hollywood Racquet Club which became the watering hole of the stars in Palm Springs that took a dusty, hot little town where no one ever ventured to a place of prosperity, plush development and the winter home of movie stars and famous people of every description including Presidents.

His success with the club also resurrected his career with the popular TV sitcom "My Little Margie" where he costarred with Gale Storm. The series was aired shortly after his election as the fifth mayor of Palm Springs to a six year term. The successful show made Charles Farrell the best-known mayor in the entire country. Soon, he would also headline an alternate TV series, the long running "Charlie Farrell Show" a sitcom which was virtually a national commercial for Palm Springs and his Racquet Club.

Farrell married Virginia Valli, a former silent film star, on February 1, 1931, in Yonkers, New York, after which the couple settled in Palm Springs. She died from a stroke on September 24, 1968. According to historian Stephen O'Brien, Farrell became increasingly reclusive after his wife’s death, until he died from heart failure on May 6, 1990, in Palm Springs. He was buried next to his wife at the Welwood Murray Cemetery.

I’m sorry but i HC Gale as THAT professor. You know the one. The one who you don’t wanna see on your upcoming semester schedule. The one who makes you go to advising two weeks in and beg for a change. Do not talk when he’s talking, “i already know this information, this is for your benefit”, he says, looking over the rim of his glasses. You try to go to his office hours to ask for assistance but it’s already full of other students doing the same thing. Refuses a TA 🥴 You are absolutely going to learn and it will be worth it, his lessons are ones you will carry for a lifetime; he knows his shit. He’s a fine professor. But fewer students than most pass his class on the first try.

And he’s proud of that fact.

Happy Halloween everyone!! 🎃

Halloween is my favorite Holliday, so I drew some fun little doodles to celebrate:3

-first image-

One year, fipple was really into ghost hunting books and insisted on dressing up as a ghost catcher, and tonette just likes dressing up

-second image-

As kids, Gale and River used to dress up all the time on nightmare night

I think River enjoyed it much more than Gale

River usually came up with the costume ideas
