1. In Yuletide, I see that TWO people have offered the 1968 Dracula. I am all faint with the shock. I would have been matchable with just my three nominated super-obscure fandoms! (But possibly difficult.) In celebration, I removed one of my other requests. I was worrying about maybe not wanting it quite as much as the others - and two other ( Read more... )

Hurrah for double Dracula and poss James Maxwell fic! It must be the Halloween feeling:)

I'm glad the fic translation went well and the Russians are wise to the threat posed by killer pillows.

Love the gif of the play of light off the water reflected on to Margaret Lockwood.

I suspect I'm not likely to get much James Maxwell, most Suzanne Neve/Susan George, but I am in no way going to complain about that if it turns out to be a thing come Reveal. :-)

(I tried hard with the James Maxwell fic side, given that he is in Enemy at the Door, Shadow of the Tower, and Dracula, but I did keep it to sensible levels and didn't request Raffles and Inspector Mackenzie for stealth Maxwell fic. I'm not that bad! I just sound as if I am.)

It is a good gif, that one. (Not made by me, hurrah! Margaret Lockwood has her own fan Tumblr full of gifs and pics.)

James Maxwell may get a line yet! Writing 'Raffles' fic that isn't slashy may have caused fic writers heads to explode;p

I hope you carry on enjoying her films. I've only seen The Wicked Lady of her early work, but I've got Night Train to Munich bookmarked to watch (as you kindly posted the link to it at one point).

And yay for Yuletide fic! I hope you receive some splendid fic!

I have been, although the first two are still my favourites so far. (Apparently I prefer the 30s??)

I found a playlist of some of her films on YT, too, here, and then The Lady Vanishes. I'm not very good at watching stuff on YT, but it's handy to know. :-)

Thank you! Assignments have gone out, so somebody will now presumably be looking at my letter and tearing their hair out planning me the perfect fic, yes.
