Ella Raines:  John Wayne lost his temper at co-star Ella Raines while shooting Tall in the Saddle (1944). He was tired of repeatedly shooting the same scene because she couldn’t control the horse that she had to ride for a specific scene.

 Wayne finally lost his patience and blew up at her, leaving an “embarrassed” Raines standing there in disbelief.

15 QUESTIONS

1. ARE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? Yes and yes.  My mom saddled me with a first name that was her middle name and then pretended not to because, ya kno, untreated mental illness is fun like that.  Makes me HATE my first name so fucking much.  My middle name, Gabrielle, on the other hand, was picked by my dad and is the feminine version of my great uncle, who was my grandfathers closest brother.  He showed up at my dad’s classroom window the day the Nazi’s invaded France and was like “I’mma join the Resistance.  You wanna come?” and my grandfather did.  Gabriel survived until July 1944, both of them helping set up staging grounds for paratroopers behind enemy lines for D-Day, among other things.  Then one day, they had to get intel across a Nazi checkpoint.  They drew straws as they always did and Gabriel drew the short straw.  He went to the crossing but got taken into custody by the Nazi scum.  My grandfather was able to get across at nightfall and pass the intel on.  Gabriel was tortured for 5 days and never gave up a single name.  He was taken out back into the forest, strangled to death with barbed wire, and buried face down in a shallow grave.  They didn’t find his body until 1952.  There is a memorial in the spot where his body was found, and another one to him in the city center in Rouen.  I take my strength from him.  My inability to turn a blind eye to injustice.  I’ve needed those things a lot so I thank him for it.

2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?  A few days ago when having SIBO for the past 7 months finally became too much and I had a bit of a breakdown.  Two chronic illnesses is enough, I can’t do another.

3. DO YOU HAVE KIDS? Hell no

4. DO YOU USE SARCASM? Ye

5. WHAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT SOMEONE? I only really talk to doctors/med tech types these days, so I have to immediately sus out if they’re gonna treat me like a human being or not.  Gotten pretty good at that.

6. WHAT'S YOUR EYE COLOUR? brown

7. SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? I don’t do scary movies bruh

8. ANY SPECIAL TALENTS? nope

9. WHERE WERE YOU BORN? SF bay area

10. WHAT ARE YOUR HOBBIES? none now because chronic illness and disability stole them from me.  Used to have quite a few.

11. DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS? One cat.  Used to be two.  That transition part sucked

12. WHAT SPORTS DO YOU PLAY/HAVE YOU PLAYED? none

13. HOW TALL ARE YOU? 4'11 3/4″ (that 3/4 MATTERS when you’re as short as me!!!!!)

14. FAVOURITE SUBJECT IN SCHOOL? history

15. DREAM JOB? helping, just fucking helping instead of living between a bed and a couch and the doctors offices
