Every Judy Movie-#3
Tumblr media
Way, way back in High School I set out to watch every single one of Judy Garland’s movies. Several I’ve rewatched many times since, others I had no desire to see again. Now, in honor of the centennial of her birth, I thought I’d do something with this knowledge and make a quick write up of my thoughts on all of them...
Title: Thoroughbreds Don't Cry
Release Year: 1937
Plot Summary: Something involving horse racing, this British kid (played by a Freddie Bartholomew-lookalike because the real Freddie Bartholomew was involved in a salary dispute with the studio at the time) has a horse that needs to win a race. Mickey Rooney is the jockey he hires, Garland’s aunt owns the boarding house they’re all living in.
Thoughts: The first of a string of B-movies MGM rushed Garland into after her breakout role in Broadway Melody of 1938, this one is only notable as the first film to pair her with Mickey Rooney. With a silly plot that doesn’t give Garland much to do, there’s really nothing to recommend here.

By Karina Longworth
(Slate) — In 1932, a schoolteacher named Mary MacDonald was hired by MGM to teach French to a young actress named Jean Parker, who was about to be loaned out to RKO to star alongside Katharine Hepburn in Little Women. Louis B. Mayer was so impressed with her work that in 1935, he created a position for her as the teacher in residence, presiding over a two-room schoolhouse on the lot. Eventually, MGM was signing so many new child performers that MacDonald had to demand more space in which to teach them. When MacDonald told the Mayer administration that she couldn’t take another pupil until she got more fresh air, they gave her an entire bungalow.
Child stars appealed to Mayer for a number of reasons. Mayer liked to think of himself as the patriarch of a massive, happy family, a picture completed by the idea, if not the reality, of a handful of lovable youngsters running around. He also believed that you could make the most money by reaching the most people. He wanted entire families to be able to share the experience of going to the movies, and so he sought to depict multigenerational family experiences, and you needed kids for that. Child actors needed more management, and more resources to develop, but that just meant they were dependent, rather than independent—at least, in theory. Two of the biggest stars who passed through Mary MacDonald’s school would test that theory.
Mickey Rooney would remember Mayer as a visionary who wanted to use his studio to produce movies that would change if not the world then at least America by presenting an idealized image of how things could be... But Judy Garland wasn’t so savvy, or maybe she was so desperately in need of even illusory emotional support that she didn’t care that her publicity department consigliere was paid to spy on and manipulate her.

1. sometimes you get so close to someone you end up on the other side of them
2. [in red highlight] everything i’ve ever let go of has claw marks on it.
3. [white text on a background of a field] A FRIEND HAS TO BE OUTSIDE MY REACH, BEYOND MY GRASP. AND THERE CAN BE NO FRIENDSHIP WITH SOMEONE WHOM I AM NOT READY TO BETRAY: A FRIEND IS SOMEONE I CAN BETRAY WITH LOVE.
4. Long before Caesar and Brutus were lessons, they were friends. // They played with stick swords in their kingdom of trees // and dressed up in crowns of flowers // and painted mud on each other's faces. // The pair was often found walking down dirt roads, // Caesar stomping proud and tall, // and Brutus- step by step- placing his feet into the footprints left behind. // Caesar grew into a strong Roman man. // Brutus grew into Caesar's shoes. // They walked to a wishing well and they threw in their weapons // and Caesar whispered a prophecy: // "We live and die together." // The day before the slaughter, Brutus took pause. // He turned to Caesar and thought // "I'll love you twice as hard today to make up // for tomorrow," // and they stayed up and played cards on the kitchen floor. // It wasn't until the next morning that Brutus realized how cold the tile was. // Life and death are not mutually exclusive. // When Caesar died, so did Brutus, in the sense that he never really lived again. // In the present, when someone mentions one of them, // they seldom exclude mention of the other.
5. a scene from succession. the characters kendall and stewy are in a dimly lit alley, one walks away from the other while saying “you’re my third oldest friend. you fucked me like a tied goat. we’re great.”
6. I'm not happy if you're not happy // And swear that you're always sad // You're pathetic, I resent it // When you're down, it hurts so bad
7. I've gotten so good about not flinching at the sound of your name that people don't know I'd still throw myself mouth-open into the ocean for the chance to drown somewhere you might see it.
8. the painting ‘Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivana’. it depicts a man holding another man who is bleeding profusely from his head.
9. there are a million ways to bleed, but you are by far my favorite.
10. scene from the movie thoroughbreds. a character lays crying wrapped around her friend, she is covered in blood, her friend is unconscious.
11. [in pink highlight] and be wary of friends, yeah? they are the ones who kill you, in the end.

Ossan's love returns episode 1
Tumblr media
alright. ossan's love has returned. time to watch and comment on this mess (derogatory & affectionate.)
for background: ossan's love was the first gay romcom to be aired on japanese mainstream tv, becoming an unexpected hit. it's wacky, it's stupid, it's chaotic, it's ridiculous, but it's also surprisingly heartfelt and did a lot for queer representation. if you can't handle ossan's love at its most chaotic (derogatory) you don't deserve it at its most chaotic (affectionate). i kinda love this show, but i kinda wouldn't recommend it to anyone haha. and now it has returned, with the original cast.
with that, let's proceed!
we start with a brawl at a gay wedding. sasuga desu.
thank god it was a dream. but unfortunately it was haruta's hatsuyume/first dream of the year and those dreams are said to predict the upcoming year lol.
they have a house together!!! domestic era woohoo.
narita airport :( i want to get better and go home. :(
okay haruta is already giving me an ulcer. shikkari shinasai yo!!!!
don't tell me maki won't show up until the end of the episode. D:
phew he's here. thank god. okaeri!!!
I appreciate takegawa's rainbow colour coded binders. and now he's on gay tinder at work. he got a match!!! i want that old man to find love in this season.
aksksdk i can't believe movie actor iura arata is on ossan's love.
okay that was funny.
this whole work life balance thing is a relatable storyline! japanese working culture u need to change.
loved this domestic fight. i like how they're having regular people problems.
hiring a housekeeper sounds pretty reasonable in this situation but knowing who the housekeeper will be i cannot recommend it lol.
bashauma ('work like a horse') cleaning service akjaskdsk
"you're a unicorn housekeeper?" askdkadkas the housekeeper ranks are unicorn, thoroughbred, carriage horse, and horse.
"chief, you're the highest rank!?" "kyoushuku degozaimasu." i'm crying...... this whole situation is pretty surreal which makes it so funny in that very japanese way.
their service plans are pegasus plan, yabusame plan (japanese horseback archery) and pony plan. i love this show actually.
ahsfkdfk this is so stupid. haruta u are so stupid.
"during this time he's changed from a chief to a unicorn."
"marriage is a long conversation." "what does that mean?" "don't ask me. nietzsche said it."
i know we all hate chief here but sometimes he says the right thing.
good!! scream your feelings into the trash can and keep them there chief.
they're so cute i can't deny it!!!
yare yo ryouta omg first name basis fucking finally!!!!
are the neighbours roommates or oh my god they were roommates.
next week's episode looks chaotic. i'm excited!!!!
first episode down, maki & haruta's newlywed night special episode left! let's see let's see.
i love them your honour
is this video even scripted because it feels like watching real people
you've heard of nnawakeneettsuuno, get ready for sonnano ato de ii daro. haruta may be a mess 99 percent of the time, but he sure knows how to say Something Hot in that remaining 1 percent lol
love how shy maki got because it actually is pretty weird & awkward to suddenly be in the same room again after doing long-distance
well that was cute!!!
verdict: genuinely loved it! the jokes are funny, the housekeeper situation is weird as hell but kinda brilliant. i like that maki & haruta are facing the same everyday problems many couples face with work, stress, time management etc. it seems to be gaga for those of you who don't speak japanese (i haven't seen the subs so i can't comment on them), but i don't know how well the humour translates if you aren't familiar with japanaese language or this genre of comedy, so i recommend it with reservations. it's a completely new story so you don't need to have watched the first season necessarily.

Thank you @wearingaberetinparis, @mppmaraudergirl, @abihastastybeans, @annabtg, @missgryffin, @nodirectionhome-ao3, @eastwindmlk, @jamesunderwater, @glitterwitch1 @uncertainwallflower for tagging me. I want to read all of those wips of yours (and I wish you all the time to write for those!)
Tumblr media
The Book Marauder (title might change- not posted)
Silent Night next chapter
Thoroughbreds don't cry (side snippets here and here )
.... Helena & her misfits > a crazy dark tale of Helena Ravenclaw and her bad choice in men.
TBM: I'm excited to get to the part where Lily has a big confrontation with James as well as ***** (redacted for reasons) and the stakes for each of them will finally be clear (which is not going to help anyone... but still) I know this is ridiculously vague but it is what it is.
Silent Night. I want something to happen, and I'm not sure how to fit it- and it is sad - so I'm stalling. (again I apologise for being vague)
TDC: I want to write the confrontations these two are going to have. I'm still undecided on some of the bigger directions this fic will have to go. I'm looking forward to Lily showing up on the Peverell training facility to find Remus gone and James (who is by that time a guy she slept with when she didn't know who he was) washing one of the horses. His shirt will be wet. see through. but she's a professional and only there to look at a lame horse's tendons... so what could possibly go wrong.
Helena... I am toying with the idea or Riddle flirting Helena's socks off so he can get his hands on the tiara. After a millenium has passed, she'd hoped men would have improved.
I think everybody has already been tagged so consider this an open tag for anyone who wants to do this... but if you haven’t and you want to;) @blitheringmcgonagall

If it's not rude (I don't fully know tumblr ettiquitte yet) i'd like to propse another character to throw into this militay au(?): Hank.
Personally I like to roll with the Character Gallery idea of Hank being this calm shoulder to cry on and it's also really funny to see this bulky express thoroughbred doing first aid so I imagine it goes:
Edward: Okay Hank, what do you do in all this then?
Hank: I clean up after everyone else.
Edward: Oh god what do you mean by that? Like bulldozers kocking down infastructure or-
Hank: No I do first aid. Like I literally clean up after everyone. Do you know just how many 7-planks i've had to peel off of concrete walls?
Edward: Well, i'm glad at least one engine here is coming from somewhere sensible.
Hank: Oh, I wouldn't absolve the great state of Pennyslvania just yet, Eddyboy
Edward: Wha-
Phillip, approacing rapidly with a rocket launcher: Hi Edward!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D
YEAHHHHH!!!!! WE'RE ADDING HANK IN!!!!! I never include him on this blog but I think he's really cool. So, this is a great suggestion! (Also, PHILLIP NO-)

Two Sunshine Interviews, 2007
Not Just A Pretty Boy: Chris Evans Lights Up The Screen
Director Danny Boyle calls 'Fantastic Four' actor 'really very special.'
MTV Movies
By Shawn Adler, July 13, 2007
Look quickly at Chris Evans and you're bound to see him as a pretty-boy actor, one of those open faces that would seem more suited to an Abercrombie & Fitch catalog or a fraternity kegger than a nuanced drama. Look quickly at the roles he's chosen, like in "Fantastic Four" or "Not Another Teen Movie" or "The Perfect Score," and you're bound to think of him as silly and lightweight, a hotshot who, as Human Torch/ Johnny Storm, actually plays, well, the consummate hotshot.
Look quickly at Chris Evans, however, and you're bound to miss the most important thing about him -- this boy can act.
"Well, he's a superb actor, and I'm not saying that just 'cause he's in my film. I think he's brilliant," director Danny Boyle said of the 26-year-old actor, whom he cast in the sci-fi epic "Sunshine." "He's a very talented guy, a thoroughbred really. He's a bit of a Mary Poppins -- he can pull anything out of the bag."
"Anything," of course, isn't exactly the word that comes to mind when thinking of Evans' most popular roles (which actually are pretty much his only roles -- the "Cellular" star has only appeared in 10 films). To the casual observer, his characters tend to be more similar than not -- so similar, in fact, that it's tough to look at his filmography and not wonder if Evans isn't just playing some amplified version of himself.
Not so, said Boyle, who cited a lack of opportunity -- not skill -- for the misperceptions about Evans' talent.
"The casting director [for 'Sunshine'] said, 'You should meet this guy, he's underestimated by people.' He came in the room [and was] superb. I cast him and that was it," the director recalled. "I hope he can get stuff that shows his talent 'cause he's really very special."
For Evans, "Sunshine" was that special opportunity, a chance to show a different side of himself while simultaneously working for one of his favorite directors: "Two birds with one stone," he said.
"At the end of the day us actors are here to make good movies -- that's what I love about this business. [But] if you don't have a good director you won't have a really good movie," Evans said. "So if you've got a good director inviting you to work for him, you jump at that opportunity. And that's what Danny offered me."
Working for Boyle offered benefits beyond making a good movie, however, strengthening Evans' belief that in order to be a successful actor you have to "check your ego at the door," he said.
"A lot of times as an actor you are experimenting, you're trying things and you need an anchor. If you're trying something and you're getting off the path, you need your director to come in and reel you in. [You need to tell him,] 'I trust your internal barometer of what's good and what's bad and it's going to protect me,' " Evans revealed of his process. "Danny could have said, 'Try the next take in Spanish,' and I would have said, 'All right.' "
Johnny Storm no more (at least until producers call for a the sequel), Evans will soon take that lesson into more eclectic fare, from playing the dimwitted lead in "The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond," an adaptation of a Tennessee Williams play, to a cop alongside Forest Whitaker in James Ellroy's "The Night Watchmen" to an Iraq War veteran in "Under the Blue Sky."
It's a mix that pleases Evans, he said, smiling broadly. "I like to go see movies that are dramatic. I like to get internal when I watch films. I like to cry when I watch movies. I like being emotional," he divulged. "The truth is, I like acting, period."
Do yourself a favor -- look closer.
Also from MTV in 2007, a small snippet of a tv interview. Thanks once again to the Chris Evans Archives for keeping this alive! (It's the bottom video.)

For the fic writer ask game - any of these?
Tumblr media
🍲 When did you start writing and why?
Oh, gosh...I started writing for fun when I was maybe eleven? I don't remember why -- that was just the year I fell in love with Madeleine L'Engle and Marguerite Henry books and I decided I wanted to be an author and started writing my very own novel, that was sort of a rip-off of A Wrinkle in Time I think. And then, later, I started my second novel, which was absolutely a rip-off of Joanna Campbell's Thoroughbred series. Around that time, I did start writing a Star Wars fic as well (it had no plot and was abandoned incredibly early on, but Han and Leia did get engaged like the night of The Battle of Endor or maybe the next day, so what else could you possibly ask for?), though I had no idea that the word "fanfiction" existed until years later.
As far as why...I'm not sure. I hated reading and writing in early elementary school, but that changed once I found things that interested me. And, honestly, I got praise for my writing, which probably encouraged it a bit. But I also liked to do it, so...I guess that's why?
🍱 Do you read your own fics?
All the time. I primarily write stuff I want to read. I wouldn't say I write only for me, because I think a lot of art is a sort of communal experience and having readers is an important part of that, but I don't write stories I'm not going to like. And a lot of times, if I go back to something I wrote awhile ago, while I might spot some weaknesses, I'll also see some strengths that can be kind of encouraging.
Tumblr media
🍛 Have any comments, tags or reactions to one of your fics every made you laugh or cry or both?
This made my laugh out loud:
Tumblr media
And this made me tear up a little because there were a couple of things they mentioned that made me feel like people were understanding what I was going for with certain things if that makes sense?
Tumblr media
🍜 Do you ever feel pressured to write?
Yes, but not by anyone other than my own general desire to get a project done or whatever. Like, I haven't felt pressure from others and the couple of times I've received slightly aggressive hints as to what someone else wants me to write, I've ignored them. But I do feel pressure from myself occasionally.
Thank you for asking!

"Balie Peyton, a racing enthusiast and close friend of Jackson, related an interesting incident which occurred during one of these visits. Peyton, a Congressman, had been to watch some horses take their practice rims. He was in company of a number of politicians including the Vice-President Martin Van Buren.
When Busirus, a big burly horse, began to kick and rear up requiring two men to hold him, Jackson boomed the he could have had the horse broken of such nonsense within an hour. He then proceeded to bombard all the handlers with orders and directions.
When the horse again became unmanageable and dangerous, Jackson shouted to the youthful Van Buren to "get behind me, Mr. Van Buren, they will run over you, sir." The Vice-President, not one to quibble with Jackson, especially over these matters, hastily complied.
Van Buren used to tell this tale to indicate Jackson's fatherly protection and care for him when he was campaigning for the Presidency in 1836."
~ 22 Balie Peyton, "President Jackson's Orders and Reminiscences," in The Rural Sun ( 1873 ), quoted in Anderson, The American Thoroughbred, 245
Geez, everyone just sees Jackson as a papa wolf, don't they?
I can easily imagine Buren fake crying against someone he doesn't want to win. And Jackson makes Buren get behind him while bombarding that someone insults. All the while Buren is just smirking watching the scene unfold.😑😑
But I love these kinds of stories about him!
It shows how nice and caring he was towards his friends 🥰

me immediately reblogging and participating is so true. i love that you're a lana girl just like me <333 congrats, angel you deserve the absolute world!
❤️ please ! fandom: scream + here's my funky little description!
full name: allyson. ( it's actually my middle name ), entj, she/her, 19. my favorite colors are pink and navy blue. i'm 5'11, afro-latina, and a scorpio sun, taurus moon, and pisces rising (according to my chart i'm ruled by jupiter and the sun). i am a lana truther but some of my other favorite artists include banks, lorde, bad bunny, and coco + clair clair.
i'm bisexual, but i have a larger attraction to women than men. my relationship with my mum is a bit strained but i'm close to my dad (not in the internalized misogyny way though). i was raised in the south (to this day i don't know why my parents did this to me) but spent a lot of time up north and went through the catholic girl phase including ending up wanting to kiss girls lmao. i'm deeply spiritual but not religious and wear a lot of jewelry (gold and silver).
right now i'm in school for cosmetic chemistry to learn how to formulate makeup. i am obsessed with aesthetics. i'm very sentimental and emotional but not when you first meet me. when it comes to love i fall last but the hardest. i love to read (currently rereading beautiful creatures which is an all-time fave) and some of my favorite films are jackie, arrival, last night in soho, thoroughbreds, and the great gatsby. i can be kind to a fault but i don't care because i'd rather die than be known as mean.
according to my friends here are things that they associate with me: leaving long messages for them that connect to bluetooth in their car, coconut and vanilla scented anything, spiced coffee in the mornings bc i learned it from my mum, bamboo hoops, slowed lana songs, minimalism w art deco accents, annotations in my books to the point where the pages are cracking, long box braids, almond shaped nails, pinterest, the almond blossom painting by van gogh (this made me cry), birth charts, going to the cinema alone, upstate new york, and vacations on film.
i am so sorry if this is way too much info but i love you and i'm so proud of you!! you deserve everything you're getting and you are so sweet to top it all of! can't hug you in person but know that i'm always sending you my love, all of it.
my love !! you’re so sweet and all the best girls are lana girls i swear !!
honestly you give me such aqua, mermaidy, beachy, beautiful vibes ! i love earthy girls and with you being an earth sign i feel like your aura and vibe just ties all in so well ! you seem so pretty and peaceful i can just tell you’re a wonderful person ! 💗
but i totally ship you with… jill roberts.
Tumblr media
you’re both complete opposites, but opposites attract! you wear the pink shirts and jill wears the blue plaid! a pisces and a taurus are a terrific match! you’re both able to comfort each other in times of need and are a strong, stable couple! you bring a lot of love and brilliance to each other, and help each other find the happiness and delight in things!
you’re both lana lovers! you help jill bring out her emotions and express them to you, it t as yes a-lot for her to open up towards you but you’re her rock! you both share a love of reading and recommend books to each other! you’re both very much vanilla girls, you both smell very sweet, always stealing each others coconut scented body sprays and if you ever trade clothes you can smell each other on them!
you definitely do each others nails! painting them pastels with french tips or even just giving each other manicures sometimes! jill has plans to visit new york at some point and she really wants to take you with her, and explore the big apple with you! she can’t wait for all the adventures and exploring you’ll get up-to! but you both live a very simple life too! you both enjoy just relaxing and being in each others presence.
i hope you like it ! i would love to see you and jill together oml ! 💗

Wip Tag Game
Thank you @annabtg, @turanga4, @jamesunderwater & @abihastastybeans & @eastwindmlk
for tagging me for this lovely game.
Rules: In a new post, post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it and then tag as many people as you have WIPs.
I've organised my files a little in the holidays (sort of) So I now have a folder that says WIPS...
The Book Marauder (jilytobermasquerade/JanJC)
Thoroughbreds Don't Cry (Entitled)
HopeLupin /SN next chapter(s)
Life's a Beach and then you dive
Road
Not the Doctor prt 2
Plotbunnies_united (this one is just a big mess of ideas and stuff I can't really call wips anymore since I'm just dumping ideas so they are out of the way, maybe at some point stuff will come out of here again.)
Since I think I'm late to the game please ignore me if you've already been tagged, but I'm tagging (with zero pressure of course) @mabelexclamationpoint @downn-in-flames @arianatwycross @chiechie97 @nought-shall-go-ill @the-al-chemist & open tag to whoever likes to do this ;-)
