Labyrinth

Labyrinth came out 35 years ago today in the US.

It came out here in November, and has a special place in my heart thanks to the ball scene.

Content warning for me talk that might mess up a beloved childhood classic. Not wanting to ruin it for anybody, so...

On verdict day:

YT playlist (of mostly makeup videos) giving ad proceeds to BLM. Apparently you won't contribute if muted, but you can turn the sound very down.

Loki 3

At no point does Loki 1.1. ask the Variant why she's female.

And: 

"You're a prince, there must have been some would-be princesses? Or maybe another prince."
"A bit of both."

So many rainbows are just mirages

Apparently you can get personalised Coke bottle with themes like the rainbow but it'll stop you personalising with words like, oh, Transgender.

The Rocketeer at 30

The Rocketeer is my number two "Jennifer Connelly dressed up" movie after Labyrinth, which is good company.


(Though despite the 30s setting, the original comics heroine was modelled after the none-more-50s Bettie Page.)

Midsummer

And waiting on a night's dream, preferably with transformation into an enchanted princess rather than a donkey.

Pick your battles

From QI:

In 1920, Dorothy Parker met her editor for brunch. He fired her. She ordered the most expensive dessert on the menu and left.

God Help The Girl

Emily Browning, Hannah Murray and Olly Alexander.

No reason to share today in particular, apart from wishing I looked like Emily Browning.

Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe

Ana de Armas plays Marilyn Monroe in the forthcoming biopic Blonde, which can't be an easy gig.


As someone who'd love to look like either of them it's a little confusing. :)

Ah yes, Pride month, time for the 'Equalities' office to stamp on equalities.
