ᴥ Miss K ᴥ thirty.

Classic Hollywood lover and serial archivist with my camera. Traveling all the time, either in my head or in my car/by plane or by train. Vivien Leigh. Julie Christie. Audrey Hepburn. I ♥ the Beatles. Mark Knopfler. Glen Campbell. & more Classic Country music. Victoriana. 1980's fads. I like butter on cantaloupe. I just thought you should know that.

At the moment, my current little obsessions: Norma Shearer films; John Sloan (American Impressionist artist); new pillowcases; owls; new rugs; and my revived love of classic films.

Just a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

Barbra Streisand | Hello Dolly: Just Leave Everything To Me

(Source: mindofanalien)

I first laid eyes on June Carter when I was 18, on a Dyess High School senior class trip to the Grand Ole Opry.  I’d liked what I heard of her on the radio, and I really liked what I saw of her from the balcony at the Ryman Auditorium.  She was great.  She was gorgeous.  She was a star.  I was smitten, seriously so.  The next time I saw her was 6 years later, again at the Opry, but this time backstage because by then I was a performer too.  I walked over to her and came right out with it: “You and I are going to get married someday.”  June is formidable; she’s my solid rock.  She’s my spark plug.  When there are people to talk to and my shyness is welling up, she holds my hand.  June always sees that I’ve got the right thing to eat, if I’ll agree to eat it.  She likes the same kind of movies I do, and the same kind of TV shows.  She’s got charm, she’s got brains, she’s got style, she’s got class.  She’s silver, she’s gold, she’s got jewelry, she’s got furniture, she’s got china….she’s got a black belt in shopping.  She’s a vital performer, and it’s vital for me to have her on my concerts.  I just don’t want to travel if she can’t come with me.  She almost always does.  She’s my life’s companion, and she’s a sweet companion.  She and I have become so very close, so intimate.  Whenever I face a professional decision, I always put it to her because I know she’ll be both objective and honest.  She’s never judgmental.  She’s become everything that wife should be, in my mind.  We sleep together, we pray together, we travel together, we work together, and we’ve both found our particular place where we totally belong in every avenue of endeavor.  —Johnny Cash, From “Cash: The Autobiography”

“I cannot imagine life without him. I love him. I adore him. Our love is so deep that I don’t give a goddamn what people think or say about us.” - Elizabeth Taylor

This speech is one I like warm up with before performing. Maybe I’ll make a video compilation of me performing some of my favourite monologues/speeches since I have nothing better to do.

I agree! Also, if it wasn’t for this speech, I would have probably liked this movie a lot less, but this part won me over and made it worth it in the end.

Winston Churchill quotes

I own a 500 page biography of Churchill that I still haven’t finished, but getting to know this brilliant man is worth the struggle of finishing the book.
