Movie: Woman of Straw (1964)

Maria Marcelo (Gina Lollobrigida), the former nurse and now wife of an old, ailing multi-millionaire, is dressed in a bejeweled gold Dior gown along with an exquisite a gold and diamond statement necklace for her wedding reception in Mallorca.

In fact, Gina is wearing two necklaces in this scene. The tiara she has on is actually a Bvlgari scroll-motif platinum diamond necklace, which she personally owns. Gina reportedly purchased almost all the jewelry she used in her movies, of which Bvlgari was her favourite.

The necklace in this scene may have been provided by Christian Dior since the designer provided all of Gina's wardrobe in the film or it may be from her own large personal collection, from which 22 pieces have been sold at Sotheby's The Jewelry Collection of Gina Lollobrigida from the Magnificent Jewels and Noble Jewels Auction in 2013 with proceeds going to stem cell research. Sadly, not much else is known about the necklace.

Woman of Straw (1964)

My rating: 5/10

I mean, it's fine I guess? Connery is very good at playing slimy and conniving, but apart from that there just isn't much to this movie that draws me in.

Have some of my old miscellaneous one piece art that I like enough for the good ppl of tumblr

[vulnonapix1234]

My unpopular one-piece opinion is that Sanji should have been trans and returned after the 2* years skip as a woman.

What do you mean, she was sent to the Island with a guy that can change one's sex willy-nilly with a special hormone therapy?

What do you mean, she got super excited when she was body swapped with a female crew member and didn't want to be swapped back?

What do you mean, the genetic modification her brothers have only works on boys?

But Oda is a coward and decided to turn him into a pedophile.

Edit: i was mistaken woth the duration of the time skip. It were 2 years, not 5.

About calling post time skip Sanji a Pedophile: as much as I hate it, considering that he is actually very gentle with children, and am aware that those are played of as weird jokes, him lustig over 16 year olds and the whole "film z nami situation" are acts of a predator. Even if a different writer wrote those storylines, oda is still in complete control over it. He calls the shots and could have decided against it.
