Ice Cream Flavours

Upon discussion about Ginger's favourite ice cream flavour, I threw a poll together to see what people thought. This may just lead to moving any further ice cream discussion to this post, but that's okay. We'll organize, here. The answer choices are really just plain ones and ice cream flavours I like (my favourite being peppermint) since I honestly have no idea what flavours Ginger enjoyed. If anyone is still curious I can attempt to find more info. Actually, it's really not necessary to vote. The poll is quite bogus actually, just leave a comment here if interested.

2 More In Possession

I've now gotten a hold of Queen High (1930) and The Sap From Syracuse (1930). Very excited! And I'm actually going to watch them right away. I started Queen High and it's a pretty cute movie so far!

Fred and Ginger in the NY Times

I enjoyed reading this on my flight home. It was a bummer when I left the whole $6 newspaper on the airplane, then had to get another one.

Swing Time Notes

SWING TIME ON THE BIG SCREEN WAS ONE AMAZING EXPERIENCE!
I wrote about it more thoroughly on my other blog, so you can read it here.

Ginger on the BIG SCREEN!

In exactly 7 days I will be seeing not only Bachelor Mother on the big screen, but SWING TIME as well!! I am beyond excited!!!!! I can't even express myself!! I can't wait to see my favourite Fred and Ginger movie with my favourite [Never Gonna] Dance in it, and my favourite dress!!!!!! I need a good outfit. The theatre looks old style and apparently there's a huge poster outside advertising Swing Time. I plan on getting as many photos of the place as possible! I have to take a plane flight to get to the theatre, but I don't care - it was worth the money to me!!! Especially because a movie ticket there is only $5.

Ginger: Pre-code Edition

This is a video I made of stills of some of Ginger's pre-code movies.

I absolutely love her style in a lot of her early 30s movies too!
