Background
Hometown
Corrine grew up in Wales in a small and humble home with her widowed father, who encouraged her to be the best version of herself. He never once judged her desires, and was her biggest supporter, even when society asked him to forsake her.
Family
Mother: Felicia Lynne Lovette, neé Barton
Tumblr media
A Scottish woman, she was from a bureaucratic family that expanded their business to southern Wales and were looking for a match for their daughter to solidify their grip on the business, and found it on Scottish-Welsh Cathal Lovette. They clicked instantly and had a daughter, Corrine, before Felicia caught uterine cancer and passed when Cory was three years old.
Father: Cathal Vernon Lovette
Tumblr media
A serious but soft-hearted man, he was reserved with those whom he didn't know and, since his wife passed, closed-off to everybody save his daughter Cory. He was protective of her and was reluctant to send her to England in the gist of the war, but he knew that limiting his daughter would only make it worse. He supported her, even when she came back with child with the child's father being dead.

19-25: Student at Oxford university
26-31: Inventor and scientist

Calm/Comforted: In her lab, when she hangs out with her son
Favorites
Colors: Red, white, blue
Weather: Stormy
Hobbies: Reading science books, gymnastics, singing
Fashion: Corrine dresses according to the fashion of the era she's in
Relationships
Significant Other/Love Interest: Merrick Crispin Brume ( @legilimenace )
Tumblr media
Mack and Cory's relationship was odd and complicated from the start. He was one of the many people who underestimated her, and bantered often with one another.
Yet, they were drawn to one another like magnets, and, in a way, somehow understood one another. Their late nights drinking and talking (also bickering) soon escalated, and while the feelings were there, they couldn't give them a name.
When Merrick died, Cory was in shock. It was such a shock, she retreated from the war early, and, four months later, found out she was pregnant when she fainted during an event, which shocked her. She considered for a while terminating the pregnancy, but every doctor she went to advised her against it due to its advance, and that she'd definitely die as well. She decided to have the baby, and on the 15th of August 1917, she gave birth to her son, Griffin Oren Lovette.
Cory's open for a second love interest!
Friends: Viscountess Primrose Somerset, Countess of Harrendale
Tumblr media
Second cousin of her mother, when she heard that Corrine was having trouble, she sent her men to retrieve Corrine and gave her a nice house within her estate's territory and provided her protection.
She helped her fight her in-laws from taking her child from her, and won the case. Griffin grew up with her children and was treated equally to her children to the point where Corrine made her godmother of the child. Both women remained good, close friends.
Rivals: Josephine Brume (and the whole bunch tbh)
Tumblr media
Cory never once heard good things of Josephine, and when she came into her life to try take her child from her just because he was Mack's, she instantly hated her.
Both women clashed and argued a lot, and Cory, backed by Primrose, prepared a case against her and went to the Brume mansion to threaten to take them to court if they were really hell-bent on taking her boy from her.
Unfortunately (or not...) Josephine's husband also passed away, and the remaining Brumes gave up, promising Corrine to never reach out to her or her child and, while she regretted that she had to die for her in-laws to see reason, she wasn't saddened by his death, no matter how cruel others would think she was when reacting to her in-law's death.
Trivia
One time, she fell in love with a deaf boy who lived in her village, so she learned ESL to declare her love to him. They dated from ages 14 to 17 when he moved to the US.
She can speak five languages which she learned in St. Paul's: English, Spanish, French, German and Welsh
She's autodidact, which means that she taught herself math, biology, arithmetic, physics, geography and to man some woodwork, as well as tarot and can understand by ear twelve languages: Mandarin, Russian, Danish, Greek, Portuguese, Basque, Dutch, Finnish, Italian, Japanese and Kurdish
During the war, she taught herself Braille and taught soldiers who had been blinded the language
She used to practise ballet and is a sportswoman, and when she isn't inventing something new, she loves to practise sports, and taught her son how to play football and quidditch
She loves expensive lingerie, and likes to treat herself to a new one from time to time
She has an IQ of 183, which makes her a genius of the era
When Griffin was a baby, she discovered that drawings soothed him, so taught herself how to draw properly to soothe his cries and even make him laugh
She became very in-tune with her Welsh roots and raised Griffin with Welsh values
Before he went into Hogwarts, she taught him wizarding and muggle history, geography, how to use a broom, some basic spells and how to duel and fight should the blood purists give him trouble
Speaking of fighting, now being a single mom, taught herself Suffragitsu, Muay Thai and reached brown belt in Judo
She reads approximately 78 books and 120 essays per year, even in her old age
She loves the theater and knows most plays by heart, and always takes Griffin every first Sunday of the month to the hottest play of the season

HP WWI Fankid: Griffin Oren Lovette
Griffin Oren Lovette's birth was a surprise to everybody to say the least. His parents weren't married. They weren't even in a solid relationship! Yet, he was born nearly seven months after his father's death, a healthy and cheerful baby boy. Upon hearing of his birth, his aunt Josephine tried to convince Corrine to let her in-laws have a relationship despite her 'status'. Honouring his memory, Corrine refused. Both sides bickered for what was best for Griffin, but eventually, due to many tragedies ensuing in the Brume family, Corrine won the battle and raised him the Lovette way. He grew up to be a handsome, humorous and curious boy with a love for nature, birds to be exact. He also was capable on thinking on his feet, and had a cutting quick wit that wasn't easy to match. Despite having never met his father, his mother's love and dedication to him was enough to never crave a father figure in his life.

Joan Crawford in Our Dancing Daughters (Harry Beaumont, 1928)
Cast: Joan Crawford, Johnny Mack Brown, Nils Asther, Dorothy Sebastian, Anita Page, Kathlyn Williams, Edward R. Nugent, Dorothy Cumming, Huntley Gordon, Evelyn Hall, Sam De Grasse. Screenplay: Josephine Lovett; Marian Ainslee, Ruth Cummings (titles). Cinematography: George Barnes. Art direction: Cedric Gibbons. Film editing: William Hamilton. Music: William Axt.  Diana (Joan Crawford) is a Good Girl who people think is a Bad Girl because she likes to dance the Charleston on tabletops. Ann (Anita Page) is a Bad Girl posing as a Good Girl to try to land a rich husband. Beatrice (Dorothy Sebastian) is a Good Girl trying to hide the fact that she used to be a Bad Girl from Norman (Nils Asther), the man she has fallen in love with. And so it goes, as Ann steals Ben (Johnny Mack Brown) away from Diana, and Beatrice confesses her past sins to Norman, who marries her but doesn't really trust her. This romantic melodrama was a big hit that established Crawford as a star. She's lively and funny and dances a mean Charleston -- a far cry from the long-suffering shoulder-padded Crawford of Mildred Pierce (Michael Curtiz, 1945) and the melodramas of her middle age, though we can see a hint of the Crawford to come when she squares off against Page, using her big eyes and lipsticked mouth as formidable weapons. The movie is semi-silent: It has a synchronized music track with some forgettable songs and occasional sound effects like the ring of a telephone and the knock on a door, and once there's a spoken line from a bandleader: "Come on, Miss Diane, strut your stuff." But most of the dialogue is confined to intertitles that tell us Diana has asked a boy to dance ("Wouldst fling a hoof with me?") or that Freddie (Edward J. Nugent) has asked Ann if she wants a drink ("Lí'l hot baby want a cool li'l sip?"). The Jazz Age was probably never like this, even at its height, which was several years earlier, but there is fun to be had here. The story, such as it is, was by Josephine Lovett, and those title cards were the work of Marian Ainslee and Ruth Cummings, who give it a mildly feminist spin: Despite the slut-shaming, the film is solidly on the side of the rights of women to have a good time. Lovett's story and George Barnes's cinematography were considered for Oscars -- there were no official nominations this year -- but lost out.

2. Sylvia Sidney played as two characters in Burton’s films: Juno (Beetlejuice) and Grandma Florence (Mars Attacks!). “Mars Attacks!” was the final film for Sylvia’s role.
3. For Helena Bonham Carter (who played as Ari), “Planet of the Apes” was her first film to work with Tim Burton. Later on, she dated Tim Burton during the collaboration.
4. Margaret Keane had been commissioned by Tim Burton - to do a portrait painting of his old girlfriend, Lisa Marie. She made a cameo appearance in the film, “Big Eyes,” while Amy Adams did the role of Margaret Keane.
5. “Frankenweenie” remake was the second film that Catherine O’Hara and Winona Ryder worked together since “Beetlejuice.”
Thanks for making ladies totally awesome in your career, Mr. Tim Burton. Happy (Belated) International Women’s Day. ;)

Another short story! This time written by Savannah Lovette, who won in our Chronicles of Dru short story contest. Her prize is to have her story illustrated by me and my sister.
Josephine, the fourth daughter of the infamous Belmarduk, is fully aware she must live up to her father's namesake. Luckily, she is magically inclined. Unluckily, she is allergic to magic. Josephine believes she is doomed to a life of mediocrity, until a crocodile appears at one of her mother's parties with a second opinion.

"There has always been a tendency on the part of men of brains to look with contempt on women's work in the arts." Screenwriter and novelist Anita Loos' acerbic opinion is part of "Women in Film Speak Their Minds (1925).” Ida Tarbell's "Women as Inventors" showcases female accomplishment. Vol. 081 contains commentary on a variety of human concerns: fame (The Approaching Epidemic); scandal (The Reynolds Pamphlet); religion (Infant Baptism; Christianity and Culture; John Huss; Hussites); education (Flourishing Mediocrity); entrepreneurship (The Telephone: Building the Business and Patent Disputes); patriotism (Our Union and Its Defenders); and books (Melville's Whale; Old-Time Librarians). Technical ingenuity is highlighted in "Pompeian Surgical Instruments" and "Submarines." Local history is the subject of "The French and British at Three Rivers." Two readings about seagulls focus on the natural world. Finally, "Coffee, Tea & Cocoa Recipes" brings quiet comfort to the weary. Summary by Sue Anderson Women in Film Speak Their Minds (1925) is a compilation of remarks on "the feminine mind in picture making" by nine 1920's female screenwriters, script builders, and title writers: Mary Pickford, Jane Murfin, Marion Fairfax, Anita Loos, Clara Beranger, Josephine Lovett Robertson, Eve Unsell, June Mathis, and Leah Baird. via Libricox

Joan Crawford and Anita Page in Our Modern Maidens (Jack Conway, 1929). 
Cast: Joan Crawford, Rod La Rocque, Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Anita Page, Edward J. Nugent, Josephine Dunn, Albert Gran. Screenplay: Josephine Lovett, titles by Marian Ainslee, Ruth Cummings. Cinematography: Oliver T. Marsh. Art direction: Cedric Gibbons. Film editing: Sam Zimbalist. Music: Arthur Lange.
Cedric Gibbons got a lot of credit for designs he didn't do: His name was listed as art director on almost all of MGM's movies from 1925, when he joined the studio, through 1956, when he retired, but largely because he was head of the art department; the actual hands-on design work on any given film was probably that of the person listed along with Gibbons, usually as assistant art director. That said, I think it's almost a sure thing that the set designs for Our Modern Maidens were done by Gibbons himself: The giveaway is that they're a splendid, almost over-the-top art deco, a style associated with Gibbons, which influenced even his most famous design: the Oscar statuette. The décor of B. Bickering Brown's mansion is a fabulous assemblage of deco staircases, columns, cornices, and whatnots, an almost cubist setting for Billie Brown (Joan Crawford) to sashay about in, wearing designs by Adrian. The truth is, the movie needs the boost it gets from the design, given that the story is a fairly banal account of modern maidens Billie and Kentucky (Anita Page) in dangerous liaisons designed to point the moral: Don't get too modern when it comes to sex. Billie, who has her fling at several wild parties, gets secretly engaged to Gil (Douglas Fairbanks Jr.), who has a little thing going with Kentucky, but when Billie meets Glenn Abbott (Rod La Rocque), things get complicated. She flirts with Abbott, who has connections in the state department, to get Gil posted to the embassy in Paris, but breaks off with Abbott when he gets a little too hot and bothered. Then, on her wedding day, she learns that Kentucky is pregnant with Gil's child, and she realizes that she really loves Abbott. Not to worry, he'll forgive her. This was Crawford's last silent film, and it's not entirely silent: Leo roars over the MGM logo, there's a music soundtrack, some sound effects and crowd noises, and once we hear a public announcement over a loudspeaker. It's not quite as entertaining as the movie to which it's a sequel, Harry Beaumont's 1928 Our Dancing Daughters, which also starred Crawford and Page, but it holds the eye if not the mind.
