Giovanni and Dayana Espinosa Madrigal Headcanons;

His full name is Giovanni Refugio Espinosa Madrigal.

He is the adopted son of Antonio Espinosa Madrigal.

Giovanni was adopted after Antonio caught him chasing Pico the toucan all alone in the forest when he was one years old. He'd been abandoned not long before.

Antonio didn't intend to adopt the boy but it just kind of happened because he and the family got attached. In less than a day. 

He will be three years old by d3. 

His adoption day is May 20th. Which, if it's anywhere close to his actual birthday would make him a Taurus.

Giovanni doesn't go to school and likely won't be excited when he has to because he doesn't like being away from his father and sister for long. 

He spends a lot of time at Luisa, Ryder, and his father’s Animal Sanctuary and Vet service (known simply as the Encanto Animal Sanctuary for now). It is very likely that he will inherit this business or work for them at the very least when he's older. 

Doesn't know much about musicians but his favorite song is ‘Play That Monkey Music’, which his cousins introduced him to.

He doesn't have any idea that the big sister he adores absolutely cannot stand that song. 

Giovanni is one of the few people Arlo will allow to touch his hair—even if he's a little rough with it. 

His favorite shows are ‘The Great Mouse Detective’ and ‘The Thunderbolt Adventure Hour’. 

His favorite book to be read is ‘Simón el bobito’.

Giovanni does not know he is adopted. 

He has been described as playful, friendly,  sweet, clingy, easily excitable, and even tempered as well as quiet, fun loving, odd/strange, sensitive, fair, energetic, patient, curious, eccentric. But funnily enough he’s not really shy at all. 

Not long after he was adopted Mirabel made him a toucan plushie and green, white, and black toucan quilt. 

Eventually he will have the gift of Inverse Zoolingualism—meaning he will be able to speak through animals. 

He is single (because he’s three) and he’s friends with Micha Rivera and Ballard ‘North’ Nattura. 

Giovanni loves both of his grandparents very much but if he had to pick a favorite, he'd pick Félix.

Dolores is his favorite aunt and Camilo is his favorite uncle (including their partners in that statement). 

Outside of his immediate (adult) family, Mirabel is his favorite.

Out of his cousins he's the closest to Amada, Vera, Renata, and Hugo. 

Giovanni loves climbing but isn't very good at it since he's little. He also likes playing in the mud, jumping in puddles, helping Isabela garden, putting on puppet shows, playing with bugs, playing with animals, and chasing after butterflies and fireflies. 

Antonio often takes Giovanni and Dayana canoeing because they find it fun. 

Giovanni also likes hiking/backpacking, jogging, racing, sledding, foraging/berry picking, jumping in leaf piles,  swimming, and playing games like tag, hide and seek, leapfrog, and ‘mud cooking’. 

The three year old also adores playdough and making things out of it, and playing blocks. 

Antonio has his and Dayana's drawings tapped all over the fridge and the walls of his, Ryder, and Luisa's Animal Sanctuary. 

If Giovanni gets upset, you can figure it out pretty quickly because you'll find him hiding alone in a blanket/pillow/couch cushion fort. 

Giovanni also adores finger painting, dancing, and doing obstacle courses that his family set up. As well as playing on the playground.

Being three, he also finds joy in helping his friends and family do little tasks. He's basically become the family's little quest helper.

Loves clouds for no apparent reasons. 

Loves the shows Foodie Folktales (like Veggie Tales) and Abracadabra Avenue (like Sesame Street). 

Giovanni has been given several affectionate names by the family, including but not limited to: Gio, Vanni, Giov, Anni, Little G, Mi pequeño animalito, Cazador, Lambkin, Little Bear, Honeybee, Toucan Sam, pequeño montañero, Pequeño escalador, tadpole, little treefrog, little beedle, leapfrog, ducky, duck, chicken legs, nature heart, and Regalo del bosque (meaning ‘Gift of the forest’). 

Right now, because he doesn't have his gift, he's still in the nursery. Which he shares with Juan and Javier. But when he gets his room it's very likely that it will start looking a lot like Antonio's.

Giovanni is tiny. 

Despite not being the youngest-youngest in the family, he is considered the baby of the family and everyone adores him. 

He loves playing with Antonio’s hair and getting piggyback rides. 

Giovanni's favorite dessert is Cholado. 

His favorite candy is gummi snakes but he also like poison apples. 

His favorite drink is a tie between apple juice and chocolate milk. 

And his favorite food is Empanadas. 

Giovanni is rarely seen without his toucan plushie (which he named ‘Tuca’) and  ‘blankie’. 

One time, the family went on vacation and after checking out of their hotel he realized he'd forgotten to pack Giovanni's blankie after washing it. 

That was the day they discovered that Giovanni could in fact have a complete and utter meltdown. Luckily, one of the hotel workers found it and returned it when Félix’s brother, Gabriel, returned looking for it.

Unlike his extended family, Giovanni actually has two animal companions. A jaguar cub named ‘Cúmbila’ and a baby toucan that can barely fly named ‘Papaya’. 

Surprisingly, Antonio didn't have anything to do with Giovanni getting either of them. Parce’s cub and Pico’s baby bird both just genuinely liked Giovanni despite him not being able to understand them. 

Giovanni knows all the swear words, which he informed a horrified Carlos, Hugo, Leta, and Belinda once when they got in an argument because Carlos swore ,in front of him. 

His first word was ‘papá’, his second and third words were ‘birdie’ and ‘kitty’, and his fourth word was ‘Miércoles’. Agustín was so mortified that everyone knew who was to blame immediately. 

For the longest time, Giovanni didn't seem to be afraid of anything. Always running into danger and giving Antonio grey hairs. But it turns out, he is scared of something: vacuum cleaners. 

He, like Antonio as a child, does not like baths and is always difficult about getting one. The only way Antonio can even get him into the bath half the time is the promise of bath toys and magic bubbles. 

Giovanni isn't allowed in Antonio's room unsupervised because he once nearly drowned in the river in the room but was saved by the river dolphin in it last minute. The three year old was one so he thankfully doesn't remember it very well, if at all. 

The ravenette is constantly trying to help Antonio grow his seashell collection by stuffing his pockets full of ones he finds. These ‘seashells’ aren't always sea shells. 

Giovanni talks to his stuffed animals and toys, and tries to feed them often.

He loves Luisa hugs and will pout at anyone who stops him from getting one (it's surprisingly effective at getting the donkey farmer to leave Luisa alone). 

Antonio had to take him to get rabies shots once after he was bitten by an unknown animal. It was not a fun day. 

Giovanni took it like a champ though and he got a lollipop. 

Hugo dropped Giovanni one time when holding him and cried for hours because he felt so bad. Meanwhile, a then one year old Giovanni, was giggling and yelling ‘Again! Again!’

Giovanni has the biggest and cutest brown eyes you'll ever see with dark brown (almost black) hair that curls slightly at the bottom, dimples, a mole on each cheek a couple of inches under his eyes, and pale sienna skin. He's also missing several of his baby teeth. 

His hair tangles easily and Antonio struggled a bit with learning how to take care of it because he wasn't used to Giovanni’s type of hair. But he's got it down now. 

Giovanni is sweet but he doesn't forget and if you wrong his family or friends, and don't apologize or make up for it, he will not like you solely because of it. 

One time Pepa was in a mood and made it snow. The snow ended up being so deep that it went up to Giovanni’s knees and he sank into it. 

There is a video from that day of him whining ‘Dayana! Papá! I’m stuck!’ as Antonio tries to pull him out of it with Dayana's help: It's one of Pepa’s favorite videos/pictures of Giovanni. 

Giovanni's favorite colors are turquoise, mint green, white, and red. He doesn't like the color grey. 

He, Dayana, and Antonio all get along great with Félix's brother, Gabriel. 

The ravenette can hold his breath for a surprisingly long time. 

Once asked Antonio if “Tío Parce” was his mom. Antonio is still not sure how Giovanni came to that conclusion.

He also quite likes the Monster Pets (like Pokémon) series and pretends that he, himself, is a monster pet. He freaked Camilo out while playing Monster Pet because he wasn't saying anything other than his own name. Camilo thought he'd hit his head or something but no, he was just pretending to be a Monster Pet. 

It should come as no surprise that his favorite holidays are World Animal Day, Dog Appreciation Day, and Christmas (because the three year old really wants to see a reindeer🦌, preferably Rudolph, up close). 

One time he cried because Carlos accidentally dropped his stuffed animal because he thought his plushie was alive and dropping her hurt it. 

Refers to Parce and Pico and Crispi as ‘Tío’ and Bruno’s rats as ‘Tía, Tío, primo, and prima’ all respectively.

Giovanni does not understand why they are not considered adult supervision. 

The little boy is also fully under the impression that Antonio got him from the stork. 

He is the living definition of a ball of sunshine. 

If you make him cry, you will have the fury of every Madrigal within hearing distance rain down on you before you can even blink. Literally in the sense of Arlo and Pepa, in some cases. 

Camilo suspects that Hugo's biological father, Ario Berra Ausentarse, is also Giovanni's biological father but hasn't told anyone because he doesn't have proof other than the fact the two have strikingly similar appearances and the fact that Ario hightails it out of the area whenever either of them are in his vicinity. 

The only reason he's holding the information back is that he is positive he will have to cover up the man's murder if the familia even suspects that's true. Though it's starting to look like that's going to happen regardless because Pepa is getting suspicious of the similarities between Hugo, Giovanni, and Ario. 

He has a pair of duckie shoes that he wears everywhere and he has duckie inflatable arm floaties for when he goes swimming. 

Giovanni has epilepsy. Unfortunately the family discovered this during an incident with Ligera’s gift. Ligera still feels awful about it to this day. 

Camilo tried to prank him one time by giving him a potato as a gag gift. He then proceeded to be baffled when the three year old actually seemed to like and be thankful for the gift. 

There is a video of him, Dayana, and Antonio on vacation somewhere like this one (Giovanni learned the phrase from Carlos). 

Her full name is Dayana Noemí Espinosa Madrigal. 

She is the adoptive daughter of Antonio Espinosa Madrigal.

She is eight years old by d3. 

She was born on April 20th, which makes her a Taurus.

Dayana is a student at the Encanto's only public school and wants to keep it that way. From the way her cousins describe Auradon Prep, it is not a place she wants to be. 

She is very close to her adoptive father and her adoptive aunt, Dolores. 

She has a bird necklace that Pepa gave her.

Antonio adopted her because she greatly reminded him of Dolores, both personality wise and looks wise, and he couldn't stand to see her look so sad. She was more planned than her younger brother, Giovanni (who was adopted a year before her), was since Antonio adopting him just kind of happened while he had much more time to think about the decision with her. 

She was seven when he adopted her after a year of volunteering at the Orphanage where she lived. 

Dayana is closest to José, Renata, Vera, Elmira, Princesa, and Avila out of her extended family. 

She is adorably protective of Giovanni. 

Dayana is one of the few people in the know about the casino in José’s room and even helps him run along with Avila. 

She has a blackmail book that she rarely uses. 

People overlook her a lot, hence how she has access to information in said blackmail book. 

Dayana has quite a few ideas on what she'd like to do when she grows up, including but not limited to: a private inspector, a theme park performer or owner, archeology, and a historian. 

The eight year old has been described as clever, detail-oriented, hardworking, fair, shy, graceful, grateful, curious/inquisitive, firm, patient, helpful, caring, analytical, and occasionally very blunt. 

But she is also cautious, business minded, secretive, sneaky, reserved, passionate, and aspiring. 

Dayana has the  gift of ‘monster sight’, as she calls it. This means that she can basically see monsters that nobody else can, regardless of whether she believes in them or not like the boogeyman. 

This is how everyone finds out that José does not in fact have telekinesis but a monster that he can control following him around. José included. 

Needless to say, people were more than a bit freaked/creeped out. And it was debated for a while whether this was actually a gift or not. 

The family was worried she was unwell for a while but quickly figured out that that wasn't the case. 

Dayana has a pet kitten she got recently after Dolores’ cat, Romeo, brought it home that she named ‘Smittens’. 

Dayana does see the appeal in romance but she's also still eight and thinks boys have cooties, which she does not want, thank you very much. 

Her only friend outside of the family and their love interests is Tiger Lily and Lampwick's daughter, Blue Veronica. This doesn't bother her too much however, because Dayana is picky with who she's friends with. 

Dayana is a big fan of romance novels, horror stories, and detective stories but doesn't like poetry, though most people in the Encanto assume she does. 

She is also a big fan of theme parks and the performers there, and has learned several tricks of theirs from Auratube and how-to-books. 

She absolutely adores learning about history—archaeology especially—and wants to learn as much about it as she can. 

Elmira is her favorite musician but she also likes the band ‘Aladdin and The Lamps’ quite a bit too. Though she finds their song ‘play that monkey’ music to be overrated. 

She doesn't like The Dragon Slayers. She thinks they're too loud. 

Her favorite show is ‘the great mouse detective’ but she also likes watching the ‘Young and the Crownless’ and the ‘Real Princesses Of Charmingsville’. She's technically not supposed to but she's sneaky and rarely gets caught. 

Helped Bruno improve the mysteries in a couple of his Telenovelas.

Her favorite holiday is Valentine's Day.

Her favorite candy is gummi snakes.

She's been to the Heroes and Heroines Festival as well as the Seaside festival, and she adores both of them and hopes that she can go to them again. 

Dayana doesn't like Unification Day or the King Beast Honorary Holiday. She's been trying to understand why they exist lately but Antonio isn't really sure how to explain that. 

But she does like going to the ‘Museum of Cultural History’. It's one of her favorite places in Auradon.

She can't sing. 

Her favorite book to be read is ‘The Enchanted Life of Valentina Mejía’.

She isn't good at video games and doesn't like playing them but she understands why people would find them fun. They just aren't for her. 

Her favorite colors are red and gold but she prefers red. She hates the color orange though. 

Dayana is a surprisingly good climber and has given various family members a heart attack by climbing into faces she really shouldn't be able to reach. Like treetops, the cabinets, and the roof of Casita, for instance. 

She's very sensitive to what happens to animals and once tackled and punched a boy on the playground after seeing him kick a squirrel. Pepa was very proud.

Dayana carries a magnifying glass around with her in her bag. It is very fun to look through when bored.

She wants to learn how to surf but hasn't had the opportunity yet. 

But she has started learning gymnastics, which she finds just as fun. 

She is probably part of the reason José hasn't gotten running his casino. 

José splits his profits with her and Avila. 

Dayana can shut almost anybody down with a stare: she doesn't hesitate to use this ‘power’ to shut up anyone who tries to badmouth her friends and family. 

She’s a very sickly child—though thankfully nothing serious—somehow she almost always manages to catch a cold. 

She gets road rage even if she isn't the one driving. Which, you know, she never is since she's eight. 

Dayana is a nail biter.

She wants to meet Rudolph so badly that it's not even funny. 

She thinks Evie is very pretty and very nice, and if she had a favorite ak, it would be Evie. 

The girl didn't know how to read until Antonio taught her using the method his parents used to teach him when he first started volunteering at the orphanage when she was six. 

Dayana has a very high tolerance for sour, salty, and spicy food. 

She doesn't own a single pair of matching socks. Somehow she always loses one of them and it drives her crazy. 

She likes watching and feeding the birds. She also likes watching the butterflies. 

Mirabel is teaching her how to ride a horse. 

Loves catching fireflies and butterflies. 

Dayana is thinking about taking up falconry and beekeeping when she's older but isn't sure of it. 

She's also taken up wildlife photography after Antonio showed her how much fun it could be. 

The moment Antonio started thinking about adopting her, her door appeared— he doesn't know if it was a sign or if it was just because her birthday was a couple of days away but it's what convinced him that it wouldn't be a bad idea to adopt her.

The day Dayana was adopted, the Madrigal Family had a party for her— complete with gifts and everything. She cried.

She was very spoiled that day. It was really overwhelming but also nice. 

That day Mirabel gave her a handmade red and gold sea monster quilt along with a stuffed toucan with four eyes. Dayana named it ‘Bug Eyes’.

Dolores reads to her often when they spend time together since they both enjoy it. 

Dayana is very interested in the supernatural and cryptology. 

She also wants to know how the Encanto was created and is exploring the mystery in the hopes of finding the answer that no one knows the truth to.

Out of the family, Dayana is the most likely to adopt a monster/cryptid without a second thought.

She is also second most likely to take part in leverage-like heists, with José being the first most likely one. 

Dayana's favorite food is Encanto River Crispy Fried Fish. 

Her favorite dessert is Guava Treasure Cups. She also likes pumpkin pastries.

Her favorite drink is Passion Fruit Butterfly Bliss. 

She likes swimming with the fishes and she likes fishing.

Dayana is one of the few people Arlo will allow to touch his hair. 

Dayana is secretly afraid that if she messes up her family will no longer love her and send her back to the orphanage they got her from.

She's also afraid of getting rabies and does her best not to get bitten by any of the animals she hangs out with.

She doesn't like going to cemeteries because they scare her. 

Dayana can often be found digging around the Encanto, mainly Casita, for fossils and old remnants from history.

She is also fond of mushrooms and plant life—both fictional and real.

Her door shows her peering behind her shoulder at a towering shadow figure that’s grabbing her shoulder. The door frame is red.

The walls in Dayana’s room are a dark red color with a pattern of golden figures of cryptid, the ceiling looks like it was ripped right out of a fairytale with art of monsters, and the floor is made of a white and gold marble.

There are vines dangling from the corners of the ceiling and on the spots of the wall where there aren’t any figures of cryptids there are drawings of animals and cryptids and photos of her immediate family and wildlife. 

She has a waterbed in which her stuffed animals, quilt, and feather filled pillows in one corner of the room with a dark wooden nightstand bedside it. On that nightstand rests a mushroom shaped lamp along with a framed photo of her, Antonio, and Giovanni at the animal sanctuary taken a couple of days after she was adopted. 

She has a walk-in closet filled with shoes and clothes. In the back of her closet is a bookcase filled with detective, horror, and romance novels along with cryptology and wildlife books.

Across from Dayana’s bed is a comfy mushroom rolling chair and a desk where she can read and draw. Above her desk is a tv embedded in the wall where she can watch her favorite shows and listen to music. 

She also has a fairy shaped toy chest beside that and a little area where her little detective kit is. There’s also another door on the side where her photography darkroom is.

When Dayana gets overwhelmed outside of her room she is not able to shut the monsters out of her sight and when she gets overwhelmed inside of her room, the monsters on the wall light up and come to life to defend her.

WHAT IS MEMENTO MORI ABOUT?

Memento Mori goes into themes of neurodivergency, loneliness, and the intersection between them as a major thing and arguably the most important underlying plot line underneath your typical FNAF SB plot. At the very least it's important to me.

It takes place in the year 2031, with the PizzaPlex having opened in 2025, two years after a canon-divergent FFPS. It's connected to my currently very under construction humanized FNAF1-FFPS AU, All Those Nights.

It starts off when Vanna, a woman who is tired of being nobody and determined to be remembered, sets her sights on the PizzaPlex to try and cause some loud, flashy tragedy that will make her stick in people's memory. With the help of her girlfriend, Anne, who she's known since she was a child and reunited with as an adult, since Vanna faked her death in her teenage years. Anne has a hatred for people and a disillusionment with the world around her, but also holds a sense of morality she tries to bury.

Vanna could have had some morals, but thanks to her past with street violence, she is very desensitized to her own horrible actions and much more ready to go through with this. She has a playful, friendly demeanor that hides horrendous anger issues caused by emotional dysregulation, buried self-hatred, and a sort of spite towards a world where she never fit in.

So, the PizzaPlex.

Through the course of six months, Vanna and Anne hack the Glamrocks one by one, and kill several people to try and fulfill Vanna's goal.

The events of FNAF SB proper follow primarily Glam as the protagonist, with Vivianne as a sort of second POV, as they try to survive, figure out what's happening, and save everyone, while also trying to find Vivianne's sister, who got stuck here with her.

There's also some side plots! Such as...

-Gala, Monty and Roxy slowly coming to realize that what's going on here isn't what they're being led to believe, only to be fully stripped of their free will to ensure they stay in line, something that happened to Melody a while before the events of the plot.

-Sol's initial attempts to get back to safety when they know everything's dangerous, from which they shift focus upon running into Melody, realizing something's wrong, and trying to find a way to help him.

-Luna being a looming presence through most of these plot lines, being just... different. In reality, it's Vanna keeping things in check, while Luna's stuck in the back of his own body, spectating.

-And Vanna and Anne's attempts to get everything back on track as Vanna starts to lose her temper and speed towards her own doom.

There's some doodle comics about Memento Mori floating around my blog, I may link those later.

WHAT IS SECURITY IS IN PLACE ABOUT?

So this AU started as a "yes, and..." bit with a mutual about a FNAF SB dating sim. It's not actually super romance focused but I'm telling you this because the way the story is set up and stuff like the theming surrounding this AU's Vanny makes more sense in that context.

So, the year is 2005, owing to the timeskip between FNAF1 and FNAF3 being cut some.

The PizzaPlex, opened in 2003, has moved on from the horrors of the past. Or most people think that, anyways. Raglan, a king of coping healthily with grief, pulled a small funny move, and designed nearly all the Glamrocks after people from the past.

Astrifer is designed after Henry Emily.

Noctifer is designed after William Afton.

Taiyo and Tsuki are designed after the Puppet, and, in turn, Charlie Emily.

Sally is designed after Susie Beck.

Rox is designed after the Mangle.

Stellifer is exempt from this and an outlier in that. He probably was just bought from a different location and redesigned a bit.

Most people don't notice, or don't care enough to think too hard about it.

Valentine Lovett, the now adult younger sister of Susie Beck, isn't most people.

Valentine is a very sweet and cheerful woman who keeps up such a sickeningly pretty, lovely appearance. In actuality, she is a very disturbed individual whose life was ruined by her sister's death, as her parents couldn't cope with it and traumatized her even further by projecting Susie on her.

Valentine is someone incredibly obsessive and who struggles to come to terms with reality, and she sees the Glamrocks as a revival of people who should have stayed dead. So she's decided she's gonna be the one to make them truly gone. She's also a terrifyingly skilled stalker.

The story is divided into several "routes", with highly differing story lines. However, each character has their route jointed with another, and while the character you pick will mostly be the focus, the events will follow a roughly similar progression for both of those characters.

So, routes:

NIGHT GUARD: Astrifer - Nessa (Hacked: Noctifer, Tsuki)

STAGE CREW: Noctifer - Stellifer (Hacked: The opposite of who you pick. If you pick Noctifer, Stellifer will get hacked, and viceversa)

KITCHEN: Sally - Rox (Hacked: Rox)

DAYCARE: Tsuki - Taiyo (Hacked: Tsuki)

HEARTBREAKER: Valentine (Hacked: Noctifer, Tsuki, Rox, Stellifer, Sally)

ABOUT THE HEARTBREAKER ROUTE...

It is possible to choose Valentine within the story of SiiP. A sort of New Game+ possibility where Bernadette has the chance to meet Valentine early and bond with her first.

This isn't an "I can fix her" story path, however, it's a "She will make you worse" one.

Bernadette is someone who would very much do anything for a person they care about. At the beginning here, when they heard of Valentine's motivations, they thought she had a bit of a point.

So, they decided to help her.

I typically dub this story path's Bernadette either Darling or Heartbreaker, and the story follows their plunge into a full-on corruption arc that lands them as a true, full villain by the end of it, perhaps to an even greater degree than Valentine.

They carefully work their way into ensuring they don't get attached to anyone other than Valentine, manipulate the characters they normally would have bonded with and make them believe they're their friend, ready, at any time needed, to betray each and every one of them for their own gain.

Darling started out not as certain of this, but slowly came to realize they enjoy the thrill of being in control, and started to become a cruel, malicious and silver-tongued person. They still love Valentine deeply, but it's hard for them to truly extend that care to anyone else.

They become the closest SiiP has to a Mimic variant, and this story path leads to SiiP's own version of Security Breach within lore, which would be a lot more focused on mind games and the fear of not knowing who or what you can trust.

There's a Ruin DLC side AU spanning off of it too, but that's in the works.

Check out 1 2 3 for some in-universe information on Heartbreaker FNAF SB!

If you got this far, thanks for reading!

Westward the Women (1951) William A. Wellman

December 5th 2020

[lifejustgotawkward]

365 Day Movie Challenge (2017) - #260: Westward the Women (1951) - dir. William A. Wellman

Robert Taylor stars in this rousing tale of adventure across the American landscape circa 1851. Taylor plays Buck Wyatt, a guide who leads over 130 women from Chicago to the California Gold Rush region, where eligible bachelors await their brides-to-be. The group of daring female pioneers includes Fifi Danon (Denise Darcel) and Laurie Smith (Julie Bishop), a couple of showgirls who seek a fresh start; middle-aged widow Patience Hawley (the always sublime Hope Emerson), a physically imposing woman who is quite sweet and is a kind of mother hen to the women; Maggie O’Malley (Lenore Lonergan), a sharpshooter who teaches the women how to use guns to hunt and to defend themselves; Jean Johnson (Marilyn Erskine), a woman who has fled Chicago in shame because she is pregnant out of wedlock; and Mrs. Moroni (Renata Vanni), an Italian immigrant who does not speak English and is traveling with her young son Antonio (Guido Martufi).

These colorful characters are enjoyable to watch, even if they don’t necessarily undergo much development over the arcs of their respective stories. The one character who most deserves recognition is Ito (Henry Nakamura), Buck Wyatt’s cheerful sidekick on the journey. Nakamura was a World War II veteran, having served with other Japanese-American soldiers in the 442nd Regimental Combat Team; his film career was brief, but he had a very likeable presence onscreen and it must have been interesting for audiences of the period to see positive portrayals of characters of Japanese descent just a few years after the war’s end.

At just under two hours, Westward the Women is too long and drags in spots, particularly when the film stops to agonize over melodramatic subplots like a thwarted ambush by Native Americans (the scene is cut short when the attackers abruptly leave, so what was Wellman’s point?) and Jean’s romance with one of the trail guides. The “love story” between Buck and Fifi is supposed to be one of the main selling points of the film, I suppose, but I would have enjoyed it more if Buck’s method of taming wild Fifi didn’t include punching her in the mouth. I’m not sure if I’ve seen a more gruesome image in a film recently than the sight of Denise Darcel with blood trickling out of her mouth and hearts in her eyes as Robert Taylor swoops in for the big kiss.

An author tells the story of how, as a young boy growing up in a 1960s small town, he was haunted after witnessing the murder of a little girl.

Writer/Director: Frank LaLoggia

Lady in White is Jeff’s pick and he loves the family dynamics depicted in the film coupled with a ghost story that includes racism and a serial killer. Crystal sees traces of A Christmas Story (1983) in the use of a narrator and a young boy who sends away for a prized possession, this time a typewriter instead of a decoder ring. She also lauds future Oscar winner Russell Carpenter’s cinematography and the cast’s acting, singling out Lukas Haas for his cuteness factor. Finally, for her, the combination of child murders and racism coats Lady in White with a patina of sadness. 

Bill describes Lady in White as being good in a lot of ways but just missing the mark of being a great movie. Each element is fine by itself but the humor makes a weird mix in a film featuring a child-molesting serial killer. He also singles out Ernest Farino as a frequent provider of quality visual effects in independent films. It comes through, for Bill, that Lady in White is made by someone who loves the material and loves movies.

As of this writing, Lady in White is available to stream from Shudder. Unfortunately, the Scream Factory Blu-ray is currently out-of-print. 

Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Bill, will be Stephen King’s Cat’s Eye (1985), an anthology film starring James Woods and Drew Barrymore, just in time for Halloween.
