To me, acting is the most logical way for people's neuroses to manifest themselves, in this great need we all have to express ourselves.

Favorite Actors & Actresses: 1/10 - Audrey Hepburn (b. 1929 - d. 1993)

“The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.”

[classicerasource]

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.

POC!Classics Week is brought to you by @mariagolightly.

What is this: POC!Classics Week is inspired by pocpotterweek and Holiday Inn on Stage because I noticed that fancasting POC actors in Classic Film roles isn’t a thing in this fandom and the fact that Classic POC actors aren’t getting a lot of recognition than Classic actors who are white. In attempt to change that, I’m going to make themed edits of People of Color for the Classic era.

What I will consider: I consider mixed-race, white-passing, and Jewish people as people of color.

How will it work:

Reblog this post if you want to join in with the editing fun.

Tag your edits with #classiceraedit, #goldenageedit, and #pocclassicsweek in the first five tags so that I can see what you’ve created.

Must use at least one POC in your edits unless they’re already a POC.

If doing a playlist, one song must either be in another language.

I will reblog your edits and tag them with your url.

Even if you don’t join in, you can always follow the blog to see what people has came up with.

Themes: This week is Favorites Week!

Monday - Favorite Actor

Tuesday - Favorite Actress

Wednesday - Favorite Pairing

Thursday - Favorite Film Noir

Friday - Favorite Musical

Please, give this a signal boost! It will help me a lot with getting the word out. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

Favorite Movies: 4/11 - Casablanca (1942)

“I'm saying it because it's true. Inside of us, we both know you belong with Victor. You're part of his work, the thing that keeps him going. If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.” ~ Rick Blaine, Casablanca

Favorite Actors & Actresses: 3/10 - Gene Tierney (b. 1920 - d. 1991)

Your father resigned. Age, you know! Since then, the peons have become um... more industrious. As to the caballeros. they're encouraged to think of their own affairs. WE take care of the government!

Favorite Movies: 2/11 - Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)

“You know what’s wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You’re chicken, you’ve got no guts. You’re afraid to stick out your chin and say, ‘Okay, life’s a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that’s the only chance anybody’s got for real happiness.’ You call yourself a free spirit, a ‘wild thing,’ and you’re terrified somebody’s gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you’re already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it’s not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. It’s wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself. Here. I’ve been carrying this thing around for months. I don’t want it anymore.” ~ Paul Varjak, Breakfast at Tiffany’s

Favorite Actors & Actresses: 2/10 - Fred Astaire (b. 1899 - d. 1987)

“This search for what you want is like tracking something that doesn't want to be tracked. It takes time to get a dance right, to create something memorable.”
