In 1930s

 

 

  1930sis an era which beauty can only be defined and captured naturally without any formsof post editing nor enhancements, like we have today. I only get to learn to appreciate deeply these legendary actors and actresses, when I become one myself. Hope that with hardwork, I'll come close to be as good as them.

 

Charlie Chaplin - The Tramp

Charles "Charlie" Chaplin was one of the first super stars of cinema, and he made the transition from the silent era to the talkies. Charlie Chaplin's silent classics include: THE KID, ONE A.M., and THE GOLD RUSH.

When he started doing "talkies", Charlie Chaplin's defining role was in CITY LIGHTS. Other notable Charlie Chaplin films include:MODERN TIMES,THE GREAT DICTATOR,  and MONSIEUR VERDOUX.

Many like to think Charlie Chaplin paved the way for other such prodigies like Jerry Lewis,Woody Allen and Robin Williams. But as "People" one quoted, "Unlike them,  unlike anyone else, he got the whole world to agree."

**** 

Clark Gable - Super Star & Best Actor

Clark Gable

Clark Gable , labeled the "King" of Hollywood,  created an image and legend thatendured for decades after  his death.  Gable won the Best Actor Award for his performance in  IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT.His defining role was as Rhett Butler in the classic GONE WITH THE WIND.   Other notable films include:  THE MISFITS, which was both Gable's and Marilyn Monroe's last film.Clark Gable's handsomeness and virility, combined with a unique speaking voice and twinkle in the eye, helped build a burning screen presence the brightness of which has dimmed little over the years.

Marilyn Monroe - The most famous in the 20th century

Marilyn Monroe

personified Hollywood  glamour with an unparalleled glow and energy that enamored the world. Although she was an alluring beauty with voluptuous curves and a generous pout, Marilyn was more than a '50s sex goddess. Her apparent  vulnerability and innocence, in combination with an innate sensuality, has endeared her to the global consciousness. She dominated the age of movie stars to become, without question, the most famous woman of the 20th Century.

 

Lily Yuen Ling Yue -  T rue goddesses of the Chinese Cinematography

流金岁月-阮玲玉映像

The smile of Ruan Lingyu in 1934, a year before her suicide.

A Cantonese 广东中山 born in Shanghai on April 16, 1910, Ruan

made her motion picture debut at age 16 in 1926 and quickly became

a celebrity. But it wasn’t until she signed with the newly founded

UPS (United Photoplay Service “Lianhua”联华) in 1930 that she

reached the pinnacle of Shanghai stardom. Over the next five years

she appeared in a series of socially relevant dramas that were

critical and box office successes and are now acknowledged as

classics, movies like Three Modern Girls三个摩登女性 (1932), Toys

小玩意 (1933), and The Goddess 神女 (1934).

Though the films from the first half of her career have not been

preserved, many of her UPS pictures still exist, and there are

occasional surprises. A complete print of the presumably lost Love

and Duty 恋爱与义务 (1930) was discovered in the 1990s in, of all

places, Uruguay among the possessions of a late KMT general who had

emigrated to Latin America. It is the earliest Ruan feature known

to survive, and shows that at 20 she already possessed a mature

talent. An unhappy love life, the sting of the gossip-mongering

press, and the stress facing an actress less-than-fluent in Mandarin

and not confident in making the transition to talking pictures took

their toll. In 1935 Ruan, took her own life and this sent shock waves through the movie community and led to much soul searching in artistic and literary

circles. More than ten thousand fans attended her funeral and there

were many declarations that the name “Ruan Lingyu” would never

be forgotten.

Forgotten she was, though, for her films were not shown for many

decades. The situation changed with the post-Cultural Revolution

revival of interest in old Chinese cinema in the 1980s, and Ruan

became a pop icon in 1991 thanks to a shallow but award-winning

film biography, Center Stage, starringMaggie Cheung

.The movie might not have done Ruan Lingyu justice, but it is to be credited

with making new generations aware of the triumphs and tragedy of

one of the true goddesses of the Chinese screen.

Is this the makeup you were wearing the other night that I said looked sooo beautiful? absolutely stunning photos!!! Marilyn did start end of 40s Charlie started 1903 to be percise was his first movie appearance but was considered part of 20s, 30s, 40s until the 70s - he was most noted for his work 10s - 50s I love the old cinema era, the elegance and grace was undoubtedly the prime of cinema. I love the fact that you made your photos, thats one of my dreams!!! I'm told I look like the actress 'Princess Grace Kelly' so my dream is to reinact a photoshoot of me posing similar to her and re-creating those looks. Some of her photos are difficult to tell the difference between myself and her. strange! Can you tell I LOVE THIS BLOG? Big hugs and love sweets xox
