at the recommendation of my bff, timothy,
i watched the classic film, auntie mame (1958), this weekend-
and i absolutely LOVED it!
adapted from a novel by patrick dennis & the theatrical adaptation
with some of the same actors- like leading lady, rosalind russell,
this film has almost as many set changes as the characters
have wardrobe changes- and each chapter of the film
ends with a darkened screen, which is reminiscent
of a curtain closing.
since i cannot tell you which was more inspiring:
the interior design or the costume design-
i will share a mixture of both.
enjoy!

yes! isn't this movie divine?! i watched it for the first time about 6 months ago. so fabulous
ReplyDeleteI played Auntie Mame in high school! Definitely one of my favorite roles and most treasured memories. I had seventeen costume changes, which for a high school production is quite a lot and I loved every single one of them! Sigh. Thanks for this trip down memory lane.
