You’ll never forget her! This week, Peaches and Michael learn that Hollywood isn’t all glitz and glamour as they tackle 1970’s MYRA BRECKINRIDGE! In addition to discussing this controversial classic’s place in the pantheon of queer cinema, our hosts delve into the film’s exploration of showbiz power dynamics. Joining the conversation is legendary actress/activist/performer Calpernia Addams, who not only helps deconstruct many of the movie’s trickier elements, but also shine a light on its endurance as a fantastical artifact. Then, acclimated drag artist Mad Magda (aka David Nemoyten) stops by to dig into the powerful presence of Mae West and how her legacy continues to transcend. From Rex Reed’s dance moves to clip shows galore, this episode has it all! Go!

Letters From Watson Liveblog - Apr. 1

The Blue Carbuncle, Part 3

Holmes using a bet to get information has always been one of my favorite fun moments in the stories.

And while I don't want to keep making comparisons to the Granada version, I do want to say it includes funny little added bits of Watson egging Holmes on to give him the money he's owed which aren't in the original. I'll just link to the whole episode, in case anyone wants to watch it.

It seems the 'Pink 'un' was a football newspaper at the time, though I'm not quite sure how someone's whiskers are a good indicator of their propensity to make bets, unless there's some sort of football related facial hair history I'm unaware of.

Why did he even use an alias? I feel like he'd probably get more information out of Breckenridge if he revealed he was Mrs. Oakshott's brother instead of just some random guy.

In the Granada version, Holmes does this weird thing where he teases Ryder towards him and then moves his own hands up to a light where he produces the carbuncle from out of his sleeves or something, an unnecessary but much more theatrical move than just taking it out of a strongbox.

Would the case against Horner not drop regardless since the police aren't even onto Ryder? Then again, it's been a few days since the theft and I guess Horner's still locked up despite the fact he didn't steal anything, so who knows.

That poor goose. It was going to die no matter what, but at least it would have died with its dignity intact.

Oh, this answers my question. Ryder would have testified against Horner then, so that's why his being gone would set Horner free.

A very thoughtful ending to this story, and one that is certainly in the holiday spirit. It's another great example of Holmes breaking the law to save someone, even if in this case the criminal is very much in the wrong. Although I would have liked to know how Holmes was going to explain the theft to the police, but oh well.

"The Adventure of the Yellow Face"? With a name like that, I'm sure it's going to be a fun and lighthearted Sherlock Holmes mystery adventure! Can't wait.

Watson, you sell out. Where's your journalistic integrity? Using Holmes' image like that. And for an American sponsor as well!

What a fun image though. Holmes sure looks pleased.

MYRA BRECKINRIDGE (1970) - RAQUEL WELCH MOVIE POSTERS (Part 9/10)

One of RAQUEL WELCH‘s least known movies - yet an important bold one in her career - as it was a bomb at the Box office since the tongue in cheek Gore Vidal penned sex comedy was not well received by the critics who instead focused on the on-set feud between Raquel Welch and Mae West. Yet it includes a string transgender message, lesbian scenes and other dialogues which put it at the center of the Sex revolution

Above are various rare movie posters from Italy, Japan and the US (click on each poster for detail).

Director: Michael Sarne Actors: Raquel Welch, John Huston, Farrah Fawcett, Mae West

2 and a half weeks until JC passes Cactus Jack!

It took me a little bit to figure out what you were referencing, but yes, Jimmy Carter will pass John Nance Garner as the longest-living President or Vice President in American history on September 18th.

[talesofpassingtime]

We deal in myths. At any given moment the world requires one full-bodied blonde Aphrodite (Jean Harlow), one dark siren of flawless beauty (Hedy Lamarr), one powerful inarticulate brute of a man (John Wayne), one smooth debonair charmer (Melvyn Douglas), one world-weary corrupt lover past his prime (Humphrey Bogart), one eternal good-sex woman-wife (Myrna Loy), one wide-eyed chicken boy (Lon McCallister), one gentle girl singer (Susanna Foster), one winning stud (Clark Gable), one losing stud outside the law (James Cagney), and so on. Olympus supports many gods and goddesses and they are truly eternal, since whenever one fades or falls another promptly takes his place, for the race requires that the pantheon be always filled.

— Gore Vidal, Myra Breckinridge
