Oh, yeah! I really do have to get busy on that, and I find men's clothes of the time to be really yummy! :)

The women's clothes are interesting, too. Women were finally freed from restrictive clothing and long hair pinned up on their heads. :) Not that I don't like long hair, but it's nice they had the option of short hair!

The men of the 30s had a lot more class I think ;)

Definitely, it was the beginning of the women's revolution, clothes wise at least; the dresses in particular were so stunning and elegant. I personally adore Bille Frechette's three-dollar dress xD
Gah, the hairstyles were so gorgeous and well styled. Being a woman at the time may not have been much fun but at least the fashion was fabulous xD

I've seen pictures of Melvin and he's not stunningly gorgeous like Christian or even as handsome as Gable, but he must have had considerable charm in person! :)

I had noticed that too as well as the fact that he was quite short as well xD But I agree, he must have had something charming about him to make him such a popular guy :)

I'm sure I'll be smooshing them together at some point! Though I do enjoy the subtleties, believe me! :)

I agree that, with some pairings, I find a subtle, smouldering relationship to be a far juicier read. Perhaps with these two it seems more IC for it to be like that, bubbling under the surface...although I still say full steam ahead with the smooshing ;)

I did read somewhere that they were inextricably linked as they played their cat-and-mouse game. You could definitely take that as some sexual gamesmanship. ;)

Well this just writes itself doesn't it? xD I most certainly take that as sexual gamesmanship! I adore hunter/hunted relationship dynamics and these two are a perfect example 8D

LOL! Well, perhaps guns_fedoras can fill the gap! Pimp to your friends! ;)

Oh I will do my best. My friend who went to see it with me echoed my sentiment about the lack of slash so I shall point her in the direction of g_f ;D

Oh, yeah. A gentleman didn't go out of the house without his hat, and he wouldn't go around in his undershirt unless he was at home and it was extremely hot. Of course, Clark Gable put the undershirt industry in a bind when he was seen on-screen without one. ;)

*laughs*

I loved that red dress!

Very true! Women were restricted about a lot of things, but one thing an American woman was expected to do by the '30s, unless you were really old or traditional, was to know how to drive! :)
That gave a lot of women freedom in ways women in other countries didn't have, and even today, there are countries that don't allow it!

Yes, very short! But it had to be charisma! ;)

LOL! Strictly canon will have to have a lot of subtle smoldering, but I can branch off into AU, using canon as my starting point. Because after that jail scene, you KNOW Mel wants Johnny. ;)

And what if the tables were turned? *whistles innocently as yet another bunny hops into the pen*

Excellent! The more the merrier! ;)
