No one suffers better in mink than Lana Turner. Sirk was the master of borderline camp melodrama that still jerks the tears on demand.

Invitation to The Chocolate Club via #LouisArmstrong, #LionelHampton jam session in A SONG IS BORN (1948).
A remake of BALL OF FIRE (1941)—my favorite version—but the jazz lineup in ASIB is too incredible to ignore.

JUANITA MOORE, IMITATION OF LIFE
Juanita Moore in Imitation of Life is perhaps one of cinemas most devestating performances I've ever witnessed. Her playing of dedication to the life of her flawed daughter is generally heartbreaking.

Realising Annie has facilitated your life with her relationships with everyone in your orbit for DECADES Miss Lora 💁🏻 #TCMParty #ImitationOfLife #JuanitaMoore
Juanita’s costumes are also so great in this. She’s more grounded and sensible than Lora, but just as fashionable in her own way. Matching accessories, always a matching hat, crisp and neat as a pin! 👒 👜 #TCMParty #JuanitaMoore #ImitationOfLife
“Except I’m not going by train. I’m gonna fly. I’m in a hurry.” 🛫
Go get her Annie!
