She went back to work as a school nurse when I was in 2nd grade. She later became president of her national association. So, I relate to #MildredPierce’s career arc. #TCMParty

129 followers · 3378 posts · Server mstdn.partyDo we all convene again, #TCMParty? The great debate: who is the least problematic man in #MildredPierce’s life? Is it her thin-skinned, unfaithful ex-husband, Bert? Her life long friend, stalker, and business stealer, Wally? Her elitist, incestuous new husband, Monte? CHOOSE!

She was born Lucille Fay Le Sueur. Her film, stage and TV career spanned six decades, ranging from carny girl Nanon, opposite Lon Chaney, in #TheUnknown (1927) to Steven Spielberg's 'Eyes' for#NightGallery (1969) and Freddie Francis' #Trog (1970). In between, among many others, she was #MildredPierce (1945), Louise Howell in #Possessed (1947), Beth in #ThisWomanIsDangerous, Myra in #SuddenFear (both 1952), Vienna in #JohnnyGuitar (1954) and Lucy in William Castle's #StraitJacket (1964)...

It's a year since my co-edited volume on #ToddHaynes came out from #DukeUnivPress, and it's time for their 50% off sale! So here is my shameless pitch for those of you who haven't got a copy yet. You get half off all your Duke books if you use coupon code SPRING23 through April 17.
You can order from the US site (https://www.dukeupress.edu/reframing-todd-haynes); if you're outside the US, from #CombinedAcademicPublishers (https://www.combinedacademic.co.uk/9781478018001/reframing-todd-haynes/).
This book was a labor of love for the editors and contributors, so I hope it can reach its readers. Thanks all for buying, liking, supporting, reviewing, and boosting. :heart_cyber:

118 followers · 1906 posts · Server mstdn.partyYou have to marvel at the professionalism of the criminal justice system in #MildredPierce. That, after hearing the whole story they bother to charge anyone for the murder of Monte Beragon. OTOH, it takes Veda off the street. #TCMParty

IMO, Wally Fay discovering he’s trapped in Mildred’s beach house with a dead body is one of the greatest sequences in #FilmNoir. Ernest Haller’s cinematography, Max Steiner’s score, and Jack Carson’s impeccable physical acting make it a masterpiece. #TCMParty
