What You Know | Rosaura & Eustace
Place: Rosa Lee teabag Date: December 24, 1986 Status: Closed w/ @rosemarten
As he drank his jasmine tea to calm his nerves after a very stressful conversation with Broderick, Eustace found some solace at the tea shop. Just as he poured himself another cup, Rosaura, a fellow Cabal member and the latest object of his obsessions came in. Perfect timing. But his joy didn't last too much when he noticed that as soon as she saw him, her expression had changed.
"Rosa, dear, did you see a ghost?" Eustace liked to think he had friends everywhere he went… But he also knew, deep inside, that some people just didn't want to see him or hear him at all. To give up wasn't in his nature, and knowing the world as he did, he knew those who loathed them would need him in the end… or he would need them as well.

Propaganda
Cyd Charisse (The Bandwagon, Brigadoon, Singin’ in the Rain)—LEGS LEGS LEGS I would sell my soul for the legs of Cyd Charisse - she oozed style and glamour and sex appeal!! And she could DANCE! She was dancing next to the greats - Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire but they are never who you're looking at because why would you when you can look at her. I will only sit through too long ballet breaks for her. If there was any woman who you could call sex on legs it was her. These dances are everything to meeee (she comes in at the minute mark) and this dance too of course is iconic. In the words of Fred Astaire 'When you've danced with Cyd Charisse you stay danced with'
Rosaura Revueltas (Salt of the Earth)—She was a Mexican actress who is best known for starring in salt of the earth, an amazing pro-labor movie made by blacklisted filmmakers. She also starred in the Mexican remake of madchen in uniform, one of the first representations of lesbian romance onscreen. She was really dedicated to making progressive films and was also such an incredible actress and artist I truly believe more people should know about her and her work.
This is round 3 of the tournament. 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.]
Cyd Charisse:
Arguably the Best female dancer of her time, she supposedly insured her legs for $5 million dollars. Stole the show whenever she had a dance number, even if she went uncredited. Musicals started to go out of fashion so unfortunately she didn't have as many big roles as she should have, but those she did are unforgettable. The Broadway Melody number in Singin' in the Rain - the green dress!
Incredibly, Cyd Charisse only started learning to dance as a rehab exercise to strengthen her body after a childhood bout of polio. She was in high demand as a dance partner, Fred Astaire called her beautiful dynamite and said "When you've danced with her, you stayed danced with". She was one of a few leading ladies to dance with both Astaire and Kelly, declaring them both delicious. Kelly apparently was stronger, while Astaire was more coordinated. She also said her husband would always know who she had been dancing with because Kelly left her bruised, while Astaire didn't leave a mark. She's better known for her dance numbers today, but she was a leading lady in her time! Her Scottish accent in Brigadoon leaves a lot to be desired, but compared to the other actors in the movie, it's almost good. She appeared in The Harvey Girls alongside Judy Garland and Angela Lansbury in her first speaking role, but she really burst onto the scene with Singin' in the Rain and her infamous Broadway Melody Ballet number with Gene Kelly (no one could handle a length of fabric like Cyd Charisse). She was brought in because Debbie Reynolds wasn't really a dancer and Kelly was notoriously a stickler about his Vision. After that she starred opposite Astaire in The Band Wagon, which was a bit of a flop but created some enduringly incredible dance numbers. She went on to star in a number of MGM movies, and was one of the last of the Studio era stars to remain on contract. Since we've got up to 1970, I'm including her opening routine in The Silencers (1966) to show just how long she was making a splash - she's into her 40s here and still a siren:
youtube
and of course, the iconic Broadway Melody Ballet -
youtube
Photos do not do Cyd Charisse justice, unfortunately, because she is at her hottest while dancing, which she was exquisitely good at. Just go watch her first number in Singin' in the Rain, in that green dress; nothing I could say here will be more convincing that that.
She had amazing legs, and she knew how to use them! You probably know her best from the dream sequence in Singin' In The Rain. She was such a stunning dancer, and all her dance scenes are hard to look away from.
Dancing in the Dark clip:
youtube
She's an amazing dancer and my favorite from the period. Here's her and Fred Astaire in the Band Wagon:
youtube
I just like a woman who's there to be really incredibly good at dancing.
One of the most talented female dancers in Hollywood history, but what sets her apart from other competitors for that title is that she...umm...well let's be blunt, she was the dancer who put sex into it. The one who said "Hey, you know that A+ leg tone that naturally develops from doing this for a living? Why don't I let people see that? Like at every opportunity?" She reportedly insured her legs for five million dollars after hitting it big, which just goes to show that fame makes you crazy. It should have been ten million.
She could pirouette in pointes or tear it up in taps. Fred Astaire called her "beautiful dynamite" and wrote, "That Cyd! When you've danced with her you stay danced with." Gene Kelly partnered with her three times. Her legs were (reportedly) insured for $5 million in 1952 ($57.8 million in 2024 dollars)! Everyone in this poll will be iconic, but for raw physical grace, Cyd is up there with the best.
Legs for days, beautiful dancer in the most iconic scenes of Singin in the Rain. She's glorious. As some guys sung to her in It's Always fair weather, 'baby you knock me out!'

Rosaura was quite the character, one he liked to have around for a change. She didn't disguise things or tried to be pushy, unlike some of his friends -Eustace-. Broderick motioned her to take a sit, he would willingly take that break she was suggesting, "just for that you've won a free reading for the new year," he teased.
"So, no divination today… What are we talking about? Gossip? Are you going to see The Nutcracker?" He didn't take her for the kind of wizard who attended every public event, but even for him, the holiday season seemed entertaining and exciting this year.
"I already brought you the tea, dear, no need to flatter me," she says, amusement shining through her words. It's an exaggeration, of course, but her rapport with Broderick is good enough for her to relax and let her tightly controlled mask slip and her face turn into a grin as she places the tea on his hand without any preambles. After doing so, she turns to her own drink and takes a sip of her own earl grey, letting out a hum of delight as she does so.
"I am here to visit you and ensure you take a quick break," she admits with a sigh and a small rueful smile. Their chats were always delightful, and yet she was more than aware that divination has a price. Knowing that he has been working on the booth all day, she doesn't want to push him further, as she knows his day is not over yet. "Divination debates and my future can wait for when you haven't spent all day immersed in them. I thought a brief change in conversation might help you see things clearer for the rest of the day."

Two more things from La vida es sueño that blew my mind:
Rosaura offering her love to Segismundo both as a woman and as a man at the end of the play, in the form of a long monologue where she explains the different ways she will be able to love him in as a man and as a woman
The fact that this dual gendered nature doesn’t need to be corrected/explained/rectified, there’s no final unmasking, no final return to exclusive female presentation for her: her final presentation (at least up to what we can see in the play) is bi-gendered
#making as you like it/twelfth night look conservative in their resolutions. there’s a return to female presentation + marriage that is not#needed by calderón. also rosaura joins him as a soldier#not as a wife#interestinggg

She was really dedicated to making progressive films and was also such an incredible actress and artist I truly believe more people should know about her and her work.
Romy Schneider (Mädchen in Uniform, la piscine, 10:30pm Summer)— Such a beautiful woman and she has the full range: she can be anything from cute to seductive to tough - and all the time she's elegant. Also you just gotta love how she left Germany and her fame there behind to start all over in France, wanting to break free from always being typecast as the cute (royal) girl. She put an extreme amount of energy into learning French perfectly in just a few weeks so she could prove herself by starring in a theatre play by Luchino Visconti (who put enormous pressure on her). Anyway, everything went well and she could continue her career in French cinema with more complex and challenging roles.
This is round 1 of the tournament. 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]
Romy Schneider:
She only had a brief stunt in Hollywood but starred in many French movies plus of course the role I know her best for, Empress Elisabeth of Austria in the movies Sissi. I see those eyes, I see that smile and of course her voice and just, perfection. Warner Bros. planned to do a movie about her, which was sadly cancelled but there is also a musical about her life, because she is just that great. (According to Wikipedia she told the author of her biography that she was what we would call bisexual these days, but because the source is french I can't confirm it)
need to show the backstage pic of her with alain delon because it makes me insane:
I'm submitting her to have some french representation in the poll, because we got our fair share of pretty vintage ladies over here (well, she was german, but she later acquired french citizenship). And also, just. Look at her.
She’s hottt
Linked gifset
She played in a lesbian movie! During the 1950s! Gif here [link] She worked for some of the best directors : Orson Welles, Otto Preminger, Luchino Visconti, Joseph Losey etc
She will always be Empress Sissi to me.

Thoughts on Rosaura a las 10 (1958)
It’s amazing how often watching stuff on a whim pays off. Not being terribly well-informed on Latin American cinema, Rosaura a las 10 was not on my radar until a few months ago. It has a sterling reputation among those who have seen it and was voted one of the best Argentine movies ever made, so I put it on my IMDB watchlist.
I didn’t know what to expect, but by the end, I was just blown away. If you love movies like Vertigo and Diaboliques, you HAVE to see this film-- it’s that kind of gothic, twisty thriller where to give too much away in a synopsis could potentially spoil the whole experience.
It starts simply enough. A crowded boarding house run by a nosy widow with three daughters becomes infested with intrigue when one of the quieter boarders-- a meek middle-aged painter named Camillo-- starts receiving perfumed love letters from a mysterious woman called Rosaura. Everyone wants to know who this woman is. Camillo claims the two are engaged in a forbidden love affair opposed by Rosaura’s wealthy father, but one night, when Rosaura herself unexpectedly appears at the boarding house asking for Camillo, the story turns out to be not what it seems at first glance.
And that’s it. That’s all you get. To say anything more would spoil it all and I don’t want to cheat you of the wonderful time I had watching this thing. The twists come one after the other, keeping the viewer guessing. There’s more than a little Rashomon in the way everything plays out.
You can find it in decent condition on YouTube with English subtitles, so if you have 97 minutes to spare, check it out.
