As many of you probably know, I am a huge fan of silent films. I could not just pass on this magnificent 4k version of one of the most iconic horror films of the silent era, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. The film turned 100 years old in 2020, can you believe it? I feel beyond grateful that we still get to enjoy this masterpiece of German Expressionist cinema today! This version includes a small booklet with facts about the film, behind the scenes, how it was filmed, information on expressionist cinema, and so on. It's by far worth every penny.

Technically, it’s not 2023 for me yet. 🤣 (I’m in California!) However, I thought it’d be fun to showcase these photos Better Home & Gardens took of Anna May Wong’s place of residence at the time. It’s a set of 12 photos, though, I’m sure there are more out there. I’m sharing 3 photos now, and the rest I’m spreading out until her birthday on Jan 3rd. I adore the darling photos of her typing on her typewriter & writing with a quill pen. And of course, this main photo with a portrait of her on the wall. 🥺 Some home decor inspiration, for sure! Credits: https://csl.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01CSL_INST/hbrh2d/alma990013874150205115 Any goals planned for 2023? I’m recording a podcast show over at @oldhollywoodminds if anyone is interested. . . . #annamaywong #annamaywongtribute #annamaywongfan #annamaywong💎 #annamaywongactress #annamaywongpic #annamaywongforever #annamaewongfans #annamaywongstyle #annamaywong✨ #annamaywongrealness #chineseamericanactress #1930smoviestars #annamaewong #classicfilmfans #1920smoviestars #asianexcellence #asianamericanhistory #oldhollywood #classicmoviestars #silentmovies #silentfilms #silentera #silentfilm #silentmovie #silentfilmstar #silentmoviestar #silentmoviestars #technicolor #goldenageofhollywood https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm2ykkXOP7B/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Actress Martha Mansfield died at just 24 years old on Nov. 30, 1923, at the Physicians & Surgeons Hospital after a freak accident the previous day on the set of her film “The Warrens of Virginia.” During filming someone threw a lit match at the actress, causing her costume to burst into flames. Was it truly an accident or was it murder? What do you think?

A big THANK YOU to all of the Anna May Wong fans out there - both new & long time devotees! 😉💕 It’s incredible to think that this ig account has received 15.6K likes on Instagram. I started posting on this account on October 2021-November 2021. Took a break from it. Started posting again in January 2022. And then posting more consistently & it grew from there. I’m very grateful to the Old Hollywood/Classic Film community for embracing this account. And of the friendships I’ve created over our shared love of AMW & classic films. I don’t take for granted the amount of trust you place in me for AMW news & updates. So thank you, again! Here’s to another incredible year! . . . #annamaywong #annamaywongtribute #annamaywongfan #annamaywong💎 #annamaywongactress #annamaywongpic #annamaywongforever #annamaewongfans #annamaywongstyle #annamaywong✨ #annamaywongrealness #chineseamericanactress #1930smoviestars #annamaewong #classicfilmfans #1920smoviestars #asianexcellence #asianamericanhistory #oldhollywood #classicmoviestars #silentmovies #silentfilms #silentera #silentfilm #silentmovie #silentfilmstar #silentmoviestar #silentmoviestars #technicolor #goldenageofhollywood https://www.instagram.com/p/CmxivOOuyGI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

i watched orson welles’ final interview on youtube today and the way he spoke about rita hayworth honestly made me tear up. its also weird to think that he gave this interview literally the day before he died
