Happy Valentine's Day to One and All!

And what a better way to enjoy the day than to watch a William Powell/Myrna Loy movie.  This page from the herald for I Love You Again (1940) makes for a rather nice Valentine's card.  The herald is in Danish ... it's not your vision that is going wrong.  Jeg elsker dig igen is a literal translation of the movie's title.  

I Love You Again is the 9th of 14 movies Bill and Myrna appeared in together.  And play together so effortlessly and perfectly.  Just great fun to watch.  

I'm afraid my Danish is rather lacking, but love the expression on Bill's face.  

And just in case you needed a reminder of who this couple really are ... an updated photo of Nick and Nora Charles!  

Bob is Down for the Count

 Tallulah takes down Bob to where she wants him ... on the bed.  She's got a good hold on him, and he doesn't seem to be trying to escape.  Good catch, woman!  Love the full-faced smile of Bob's.

Bob, The Hollywood Smoothie!

 A Hollywood star in the 1930s being interviewed by a fanzine reporter about another star ... you should believe every word!!

Nothing Fake About That Smile!

 Bob and the two kids ... something you don't see that often.  That's one big smile on Bob's face, a happy Dad.  Proud of his kids, or amused by whatever it is that Jr.'s up to behind his back ... or both.

I have no information re the photo.  No date taken or where they are or why.  Anybody want to give it a try?  C'mon, you can do it.  

Bob in a Tux, And Other Beautiful Thoughts

 Letty Lynton, our favorite "Gee, I wish there was a good copy out there to buy" movie.  Left with bad copies of pirated copies to try to get some idea of what it really looked like ... it's just sad.  Anyway, a fair number of stills survive, but not many seem to be in circulation.  I would love to have one of Bob when he first emerges from his cabin on the ship.  Rrfff!

Ah, back in the days when rich people dressed for dinner when traveling on ocean liners.  Dressed, as in tuxedos and fancy gowns.  Now they travel in private aircraft, and probably wear sweats and hoodies.  Just no class these days.

Speaking of class ... what a young, slender and handsome couple Bob and Joan were.  Now that's sexy.
