Late Night Memories

As you no doubt remember, because I harp on about it frequently, I spent most Friday and Saturday nights in the early to mid-1990s watching B-movies on late-night television. And when Rhonda Shear hosted these gonzo cult movies on USA Up All Night I was absolutely glued to the boob tube. Ahem *cough cough* I … Continue reading Late Night Memories →

Hot Shots of the Week: Karen’s Got a Gun

Wake up, Henry. She’s sorry!! Just a little love for Lorraine Bracco and the late, great Ray Liotta in Goodfellas (1990). Speaking of love, and at the risk of oversharing (uh oh, cringe warning), I loved the harrowing bedroom scene a lot when I was a teenager. I rewound and paused my VHS copy of … Continue reading Hot Shots of the Week: Karen’s Got a Gun →

Hot Shots of the Week: Debbie Does Paris

These stunning black and white photographs of Blondie’s Debbie Harry in a Paris hotel room were taken by Michael Haddi in 1994, for Vogue UK. Debbie was almost fifty at the time and, for my money, these might be the hottest shots of this iconic bombshell ever taken. That is really saying something.

Monica Monday

Forever. Danish actress Kirsten Lindholm strikes an interesting pose in this promo image made around 1970. Acting under her … Continue reading Random Image Dump #19: Drop Dead Legs →

Michelle Monday

I’ve rhapsodized about Michelle as Melanie Parker in the delightful 1996 rom-com One Fine Day before. My friend Paul regularly rhapsodizes about her, too. Clearly, we have a thing for New York City architect and single mom Melanie. That’s not a surprise, given how we both feel about Michelle. As Melanie, Michelle channels the great … Continue reading Michelle Monday →

Lost and Found: Good Girls Don’t

Good Girls Don’t went straight to video in 1993, and has yet to make it to DVD or Blu-ray. I caught it streaming on our Lord and Savior, Tubi. I’m certain I also saw it back in the ‘90s on USA Up All Night. It sure as heck feels like the sort of movie Rhonda … Continue reading Lost and Found: Good Girls Don’t →
