Louise Brooks

I saw a TV program the other day about her the other day

I never knew that her hairstyle had such an influence, there is definately quite a few SG with a Louise Brooks haircut

She's a goddess of celluloid. Yes.

First off, I don't like that everyone is here talking about my girlfriend.

Luoise Brooks was one of the finest silent film actors of all time. The way she expressed herself rivaled even the master, Lon Chaney. It's a shame she didn't make the transition to talkies. Hers is a screen presence that has not been matched since. Pandora's Box is one of my favorite movies and I reccomend it to everyone.

Good book, too. The author was obsessed with her.

It's staggering to think of all the people who emulate her look yet have no idea who she is. Sort of like how many people don't know that Jeeves, the archetypal term for butler, is based on an actual fictional character.

Roger Ebert's review of Pandora's Box is a good place to get an idea of who she was.

She is quite possibly the most beautiful girl ever. I adore her.

mmmm Sexyness



The text below the image reads, "Miss Brook's beauty is a nightly pleasure to patrons of Ziegfeld's Follies." Believe it or not, this image was found in a porno shop in one of the least desirable sections of San Francisco, California. This single page was found in a pile of loose pages cut from vintage magazines. All of the pages and the magazines from which they were clipped were of the pin-up type featuring scantily clad show-girls. It just goes to show, you never know what you'll find and where you'll find it.
