Have a Little Faith

With July 4th having come around again recently, I was reminded of one of Michelle Pfeiffer’s more forgotten films, Sweet Liberty (1986). Written and directed by the great Alan Alda, Sweet Liberty Is best described as a middle-age/midlife crisis film. Alda plays college history professor Michael Burgess, whose historical novel about the American Revolution is … Continue reading Have a Little Faith →

Thrust It: Showgirls at 30

In which we thrust along with thrusting queen Nomi Malone on her thirtieth thrusting anniversary. Almost universally panned upon release, Paul Verhoeven’s Showgirls (1995) opened thirty years ago this coming September 22nd. The wild story of a maniacally determined stripper, er, dancer, trying to make it big in Vegas, Showgirls was absolutely savaged by critics. … Continue reading Thrust It: Showgirls at 30 →

Elvira, Mistress of Independence Day

It’s the 4th of July and, why yes, we’d love to celebrate with a heaping helping of Elvira’s American pie, if you know what we mean, and we think you do.

Michelle Monday

While I would normally advise against covering up Michelle Pfeiffer’s mesmerizing baby blues, there’s no denying she looked pretty rad in these sunglasses, which she wore as Elvira Hancock in Scarface (1983). Michelle looks positively delectable in this glamorous ensemble. If the white jacket/slit-skirt combo is the sundae, then the shades are the cherry on … Continue reading Michelle Monday →

Bombshells: Rita Gam

Pittsburgh-born actress Rita Gam (1927–2016) sure did have a great name for a Bombshell. A fitting one too, as she definitely had smoking hot gams on her. Where’s the lie? No where, that’s where! After a few years of modeling and television work, the statuesque beauty made her film debut in the 1952 film noir … Continue reading Bombshells: Rita Gam →

Michelle Monday

Grease 2 (1982) turned forty-three back on June 11. To celebrate (a little late, I know), here’s Michelle in all of her majestic resplendence as Stephanie Zinone, a character I just adore. Michelle’s charisma in in the role is off the charts! Guh! She so freakin’ dreamy.

Bombshells: Sheree North

American actress, dancer, and singer Sheree North (nè Dawn Shirley Crang; 1932–2005) was another in a long line of supposed successors to Marilyn Monroe. While she never scaled those heights, Sheree still had the qualifications—and the measurements—to make for one helluva blonde bombshell in her prime. She became a prolific television actor later on, but … Continue reading Bombshells: Sheree North →
