Mary Haines: [Softly] No

By god, this film by Cukor is so strange/charming. With 130 female roles, no man appears in this film, even the dogs were bitches.
Old Hollywood is the best, ever, forever.

The visit to the vet today was traumatic for everyone involved.
A friend recommended a vet who turned out to be a disappointment. Souppy is demented but still a vet should be able to handle a difficult animal. As it turned out, the doctor was scared of Souppy and Souppy hated the way she was being handled, did a tour-de-force Linda Blair Exorcist impersonation, got away from the retarded vet’s grasp and hid under an ugly desk, screaming all the while. Vet gave me gloves to get her out, Souppy butchered my forearms and clothes in the process but I yanked her out and we got out of there. Tomorrow we’ll go to our old vet. I hate changes. And now Souppy hates me.

Got her dirt cheap, a mere 100 bucks without an opposing bid.
I’ve been fascinated by Debbie Drake dolls and their packaging for years.
They were made in 1963 in Hong Kong, 11,5 inches tall with multiple joints, a revolutionary doll concept for her time.
And what amazing, monochromatic packaging design.
