An early happy #Halloween wish to friends! This picture is from my recent Vintage Girl Studios #horror-themed, #pinup photoshoot. Definitely a twist on the Hollywood starlet's Hollywood publicity still. Looks like we added a little SERIAL MOM (1994)! #SpookySeason2025 #FilmSky

Every time I see someone with one front half of their shirt tucked in, I think of a YOU CAN'T DO THAT ON TELEVISION episode. It's the one where the characters randomly start a style trend of wearing pants with one long leg & one short leg. Just as silly to me! #GenX #TVSky

Silvetoned photograph of Beth Ann Gallagher in a pinup pose. She is reclining on a white, brocade couch, and she is wearing a slinky, silver metallic dress and a hematite choker. Her hair starts smooth and ends in waves a curls as it trails off the couch.

I'm "half" Portuguese, & I grew up in a part of New England, where that's a major ethnicity. I remember how excited people were that MYSTIC PIZZA (1988) was coming out. A mainstream, American film was going to portray Portuguese-Americans & positively. Both rarities! #TCMParty #FilmSky

I'm giving myself a belated birthday treat sharing GOLD DIGGERS OF 1933 is at #SouthCoastCinemaniacs tonight. Usually some percentage of the crowd has never seen the featured #classicfilm before. Would be a great first-time watch! #SouthCoast #FairhavenMA #FilmSky
