How freaking cute do Starbuck and Apollo look in this icon? So freaking cute, I can't take it.
Today is Bette Davis' 100th birthday. Go catch a movie if you can! My favorite of hers is "Jezebel", the movie they made for her when she didn't get "Gone With the Wind". At least that's the way the story goes. It's no "Gone With the Wind", but still good. Henry Fonda was pretty hot too.
I actually haven't seen a lot of Bette Davis movies, but I think she was pretty cool herself. I was watching the extras for a movie called "The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex", and it was said that when they were trying to decide what to call the movie, "The Lady and the Knight" was a possibility and Davis nixed it, saying basically, this movie's about the fucking Queen and you wanna name it THAT? A sentiment I wholeheartedly agree with. Plus, she and Errol Flynn didn't get along and I think the guy was a big doofus, so go team Bette.
AND I went to the used cd/dvd shop and got "Sunset Boulevard" for 4 bucks. Awesome.
