  1. Please don protective eyewear, as you cannot stare directly into the glamour without jeopardizing your vision.

    Too late.

    Do you have a Braille edition of She Blogged By Night?

  2. I agree – they double billed on TCM a year or so ago and it was like finding some lost treasure of the Incas. One Way Passage is especially mind-blowing… soo much class and chemistry and human warmth I cry just thinking about it. I just hope it’s not discovered out west and remade with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, or worse.

  3. Fabulous photos! I’m so glad that Kay is being rediscovered and appreciated by so many of us. :)

    Best wishes,
    Laura

  4. I wish I could go back in time and call Miriam Hopkins a “serving wench” to her face. Absolute hilarity.

    Lauren, Jewel Robbery reminded me a lot of Raffles, honestly. I suspect there were several films of that era with similar plots.

    I shudder to think who could be worse in a remake of One Way Passage than Brangelina. Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster, I guess.

  5. I so love her. Did you ever read that chapter in “The Power of Glamour” by Annette Tapert about Kay Francis? Great book, great star.
