It's hard for women to make such scenes these days, since they don't wear fur to flounce as they're strutting out. However, hands on hips, thumbs in front, can help with the bitchy strut. Works for me, anyway...
I know it's wrong, wrong, I tell you, but I can never watch Back Street without wishing John Gavin would just bitch slap the bejeezus out of the missus. And then slap Susan Hayward. And then slap me. And then walk around in lederhosen with no underpants.
I had forgotten that they sneaked Cruella DeVille in that scene!
ReplyDeletei built a life around it.

ReplyDeleteIt's a Helen Lawson production! Miss Helen Lawson Presents the Children's Hospital Drag Show. Fabulous.

ReplyDeleteWas this one of the first Cougar Productions?
ReplyDeleteAnd the stylized take on Brahms 4th was a nice touch.
But I always like it best when Susan is drinking.
Even though she’s not drinking or waiting for the electric chair at least she’s become, cheap, and vulgar, and dirty.
ReplyDeleteAnd when Mean Dirty Pirate speaks of cheap, vulgar, and dirty, you can bet he knows what he's talking about.
ReplyDeleteIt smells of musky lederhosen in here.
