HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! “Operator? Get me Plaza 4-6435. [pause] Put Mister Tiffany on the line, would you, dear. Tell ’em it’s Senator Bankhead’s daughter and she’s livid. [pause] Louis? It’s Tallulah, dahling, and there’s something wrong with this f–king crown you made for me. Well, it’s just wrong, that’s all, dahling. My pansy friends are laughing at me, and you know how discerning they can be about this sort of thing. Yes, yes, even Mr. Cukor felt it necessary to suppress a chuckle when he saw me. Now here’s what you do, dahling. Put down that f–king lamp and make me another crown, but this time not so damnably laughable, not so puffy this time, all right? And put it on the Sky Chief first thing in the morning. Yes, now, Louis. Or I’ll call Hedda and give her an earful. Mister DeMille will just have to postpone shooting until the new crown arrives. He can film Navaro’s scenes or something. All right. All right, Louis. There’s a dear. Goodbye, dahling.” [click]
Oh, and one more thing: the best thing about this outfit is that it does have something to do with the plot – it is not random – and by the time we come to this scene we are completley used to seeing her in this garb. We are more invested in what is going on with her emotionally.

Mister Tiffany!!!!
hahahahahaha
How about the three fat ROCKETS about to blast off on top of her crown???
This is from the 1931 movie The Cheat – which I saw last night – and was so damn risque I couldn’t believe my eyes.
The whole movie starts off with a pretty blatant anal-sex joke, for example.
But not just the sex stuff – it is truly PERVERSE. Like Blue Velvet perverse.
I’ll write about it when I have a second.
But look at her there – and the size of that phone!!
Tallulah 3 Shiny Rockets and a Tankhead
Tallulah 3 Shiny Rockets and a Tankhead
Stevie, oh my GAWD. You are a genius, man! I’ve tears streaming down my face. I can just hear that. Oh, Lordy.
“Louis, dahling, you may need to rethink the parapets.”
I would love to go back in time and watch her work a room. She lived quite a life. I guess that would be putting it mildly :)
“Future events such as these will affect you in the future.”
Okay, Stevie’s is a lot funnier.
put it on the Sky Chief first thing in the morning.
hahahaha
Will do, Tallulah!
Stevie: you HAVE to see this movie.
A. Stevie is a GENIUS!!!

Mitchell – we need to talk. Immediately.
Sunday again?? Do you have time? Life is so insane right now – but Sunday morning I have some time.
I’ll send you the pre-code collection – it’s so brill!!
Oh Jesus. I can’t stand it. I don’t know what to do. I need to run around in circles now.
OhmyGod.
I like her….spacehat.
Alex – I know, right? It’s just too much.
“Hello, Tallulah? This is St. Peter’s. You wouldn’t have happened to see our tabernacle, would you?”
This movie is so effed up.
Almost done with my review. Look for it later.
Blue Velvet perverse… I can hardly wait.

Miss you too! SO MUCH TO TELL YOU

She’s falling apart.
While wearing THAT.
Brill!!
