Awesome People for the Day: Barbara Stanwyck

'Ello friends, 

     Before you all ask - no, I did not randomly decided to make Missy an APP; yes, someone actually requested this. Ain't that grand, though? My Miss deserves so much love. Also, before I start posting pics, I want to point out that Missy is an undeniably awesome person every day, not just today. 

     Also, you know, sometimes I feel I ought to just write a post and call it "In Defense of Barbara Stanwyck", but then I realize that, one, it would just be a 1000-word rant and, two, it's not like she gets a lot hate or anything, just that I'm mad she doesn't get as much love as other people. Then there are other times that I want to write a book called "Missy: How to Be Flawless All the Time the Barbara Stanwyck Way" - like "A Touch of Grace: How to Be a Princess the Grace Kelly Way" - but I don't know how well that would go over... ho hum. Pictures, anyone?



Is she not just absolutely the most stunning person ever? 
Really, I think God made her and then just gave up on 
trying to out-do what he had already done. 


Until Later On~

  1. How can you not adore Missy?

    Hey, I don't know if you have seen the new running blogathon called "The Ten: Best Actresses of All Time Relay Race. It is handed over from blogger to blogger. I was handed it by Le Mot du Cinephiliaque, and now I hand it over to you. All the details can be seen at http://themostbeautifulfraudintheworld.blogspot.com/2012/06/ten-best-actresses-of-all-time-relay.html
    and you can see all the past participants as well. So hopefully you can join the fun and then pass it on to another worthy film writer.

    Enjoy.

  2. I think I'm the one who requested it. I know I did request it, but maybe someone else did it as well. Anyway, I loved the post. Had never seen any of the pictures before and she does look stunning on every one of them.
    Thank you :-)

  5. This morning on TCM they played Crime of Passion. It is one I hadn't seen before & loved it! She has become one of my all time faves!!

    Yesterday on TCM they had a few Ida Lapino movies! That may be one you can add to your list! Very pretty lady, funny and a very good dramatic actress as well.

    1. Yay! Actually...*blush*...I haven't seen that one, I'm going to watch it soon though! Glad you liked it, I'm sure she's great (she always is). I REALLY want to watch some Ida Lupino movies...I think I'll make her a person to learn about at some point, and I'll put her on the APP list. :)
