You may be cool, but you'll never be as cool as these two cats wearing sunglasses in the window of an optician's Boulevard St Germain in 1925

Well....it's finally snowing here in Minnesota. Perhaps today is a good day to get back into Noirvember by watching a Hawaiian-set noir. Also, if somebody had told me that Elsa Lanchester plays a cabbie in this one, I would have watched this sooner.

All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.
It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

Love this idea of wearing a high-neck, long-sleeve top under an evening gown. Kudos to designer, Orry-Kelly. Barbara Stanwyck in Gambling Lady (1934).
