It's been a dead-duck day in the email box. Somebody could send me a cool note about Marlene Dietrich's glamorous 70 year old breasts in 1972 and lift me up. I could use a lift, couldn't you? Of course, Marlene lived to 90, but had the good sense to cease her career a little later in her seventies. After this, she was a recluse, except for interviews and phone calls. It was said she'd spend $3000 a month on phone calls. That IS fucking weird!
That there would be people left to call is weird!
ReplyDeleteNo, it's not. Remember how many men she had slept with. I imagine ageing actors and politicians were glad to hear from her again without having to confront her wrinkles (long held at bay by mini-surgeries). I remember seeing her on her TV special and she motivated my mojo even then! Of course, there's a lot of makeup tricks and smoke and mirrors going on, but it worked!
