I'm Hepburn, too.

But I'm also William Powell. I was hoping for Cary Grant, but I can live with Powell, as long as I don't have to get a dog named Astra.

William Powell was so nnnggghh before they cleaned him up in My Man Godfrey (piercing blue eyes and stubble? Oh, yeah), and though I'm not a big fan of the Thin Man movies, I loved the other ones he did with Loy: Libelled Lady, Double Wedding and one of my absolute favourites, I Love You Again.

And he was crazy in love with Jean Harlow, so he couldn't be all bad.

I liked the Thin Man movies, at least the first one. I haven't seen his other films with Loy, but I should look for them because I adore her.

You can get Libeled Lady at Netflix, but not the other two. I'll keep an eye out for them on TCM for you - they're fabulous.

Rooster Cogburn is one of my top three favorite John Wayne movies (love it more than True Grit). Here's some pics:

Yeah, I loved the shots on IMDB, but unfortunately it doesn't let you link to images. Rooster, yay! I have such love for Wayne at all ages. :)

What fun!

Turns out I'm Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn too.

Loved Cary Grant and always wanted to be Hepburn.

Great pix too!

lamardeuse May 22 2007, 12:25:35 UTC

And they made such fabulous movies together. :)

I came up William Powell & Kate. Darn, I was shooting for Cary!

lamardeuse May 22 2007, 21:16:33 UTC

I love Cary, but I also have a huge soft spot for William Powell. There are a couple of movies where he plays the redeemable rogue, and I just melt. :)

I'm a Cary girl. *g* And Spence too, of course.

Not that I'm a least bit jealous.... but there's something vaguely familiar about the curve of that mouth

Heh. I also see a real resemblance between JF and Jimmy Stewart. The fact that he does an adorable Jimmy Stewart impression - well, if he ever did that in front of me I'd probably embarrass myself. Or come. Which I suppose would be embarrassing. :D
