Luv U Sinead

 

Fleur Flair

Journey into the Desert 
with Fleur Cowles
and Donovan
and Cary Grant
and Salvador Dali
and Queen Elizabeth 
and nearly everyone who was a big someone,
at one time--
Marilyn Monroe
Fleur made friends and kept them, as her memoir states.

I have to document my periodical curiosity with Fleur Cowles--I will love her style always,
but my focus has once again waned....like Robert Mitchum and Slavs.
I wonder what's next!  So exciting!

...Flair only lasted one year

But Fleur Cowles lasted 101!

Look her up, it was fun!

Back to Mitchum

I'm watching Robert Mitchum interviews--Dick Cavett-1971 and Cinema Showcase 1978 
I haven't figured out my curiosity about him, but it's at least a temporary focus.  

I watched the end of The Yakuza while back and it was very good. Of course a bummer with all the death and unnecessary (to me) finger chops, but the interiors and look of the time is exquisite.  Was cool to see the actor who played the Japanese cop from Black Rain young.

I'm sort of curious about one of Mitchum's biographies, Baby, I don't care.  The title is awesome.  Of course I had to read the reviews...there are a lot of informative ones on there--I still don't know if I want to read about what an awful drunk he was, but this review cracked me up--

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly satisfied

Verified Purchase First of all I used the book for personal reasons.
The book it’s supposed to be used and I was amazed at
the excellent condition it came.
It looked as if it came out of the mill.
I was very impressed.
