MOVED!

Hi everyone! So I just wanted to let you know that I have moved :D haha to this link right here> http://ald1396.blogspot.com/ It's a classic movie blog I started awhile ago, that was pretty much dormant for awhile, but now I'm bringing it to life!

I'll start posting mainly on there, and I promise I will still post Ginger stuff :D I'll leave this blog up, for anyone that wants to access the pictures, and occasionally if I have something to write about I will :D

Please follow that blog if you aren't already! :D Have an awesome day everyone!

So sorry I haven't posted in forever, but I hope all the pics make up for it :D hehe
Last week, I suddenly felt like watching Roberta REALLY badly (As most of you know it's my favorite Fred and Ginger movie) so I started watching it, and at the same time I had been listening to the song Good Life, and I thought it fit perfectly! (Despite the fact they say a not so very nice word in it....LOL)

So yeah I made the video and here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-_i_Tqln_E
Hope you all like it :D

Now, I found this, on AFI, it has these brief movie reviews with some facts by each movie, http://www.afi.com/silver/new/nowplaying/2011/v8i1/rogers.aspx Pretty cool, I thought maybe you would like to check it out :D

Now I haven't done a poll in awhile cause I ran out of ideas! But I decided to make a new one and here it is: Which one of these leading men do you think worked best with Ginger?

William Holden?

Ray Milland?

Francis Lederer?

William Powell?

Or George Brent?


I left out Fred, Cary and Jimmy on PURPOSE. hahaha since I know those are the ones everybody will always pick :P

And here are some pictures!


A picture with Irving Berlin!

A video still I hadn't seen before...

Wow!

I love this picture of Ginger, apparently it was taken while she was opening gifts the morning of her wedding! :D












This picture makes me smile!









It has been forever since I last posted! I am really sorry :/

Well now for some Ginger pics! I've completely gotten back into the Fred and Ginger spirit again, and hopefully I can get all their movies from the library again.

Some wonderful person shared this awesome website with me and I found some great quotes about Ginger, from Fred and a lot of others :D



Fred and Ginger mood, I told ya! haha :D


Fred and Ginger on the set of Flying Down to Rio :D


On the set of Carefree..







And now for this awesome website! http://todflet.users.sonic.net/ginger_rogers_appreciations.html



And here are a few quotes:


“Ginger was brilliantly effective. She made everything work for her. Actually she made things very fine for both of us and she deserves most of the credit for our success.” -- Fred Astaire, in 1966

"Ginger is the most effective performer I've ever worked with. Ginger's a salesman. She can sell it. She's a showman and an actress. She's quite unique. She's amazing." – Fred Astaire (1952



"When I was working with Ginger, it was like heaven on earth. She had all the talent anybody could have." – Fred Astaire


"Ginger Rogers ... was [Astaire's] greatest partner. Have we seen the complexity of romantic ecstasy, joy, bravery, or disappointment and desperation better rendered than in "Cheek to Cheek", "They All Laughed," "Let's Face the Music and Dance," and "Never Gonna Dance"? No actress has ever been better at communicating the mood to be wooed and the levels of sheer amazement felt when observing a man become magnetic." -- Stanley Crouch, 2006


And now after an EXTREMELY long post :P haha here is the link to a video I made, I hope you all like it!
