With this money, I can get away from you [...] From you and your chickens and your pies and your kitchens and everything that smells of grease. I can get away from this shack with its cheap furniture. And this town and its dollar days, and its women that wear uniforms and its men that wear overalls [...] With this money, I can get away from every rotten stinking thing that makes me think of this place or you!
MILDRED PIERCE  1945, dir. Michael Curtiz

This gown, likely designed by Milo Anderson, was first worn by Dinah Shore as herself in the 1943 film Thank Your Lucky Stars. It was worn again by Ann Blyth as Veda Pierce in the 1945 Mildred Pierce. The original skirt appears to have been removed and replaced.

Get out, Veda. Get your things out of this house right now before I throw them out into the street and you with them. Get out before I kill you!

"Glancing at the gas, she saw that there were two gallons in the tank, and kept on straight ahead. At Colorado Avenue, she turned. It was the first through boulevard she had been on, and the traffic signals were off, with yellow blinkers showing. She gave the car the gun, excitedly watching the needle swing past thirty, forty, and fifty. At sixty on a slight upgrade, she detected the gravelly sound of ping, made a mental note to have the carbon removed. "Then she eased off a little on the gas, breathed a long, tremulous sigh. The car was pumping something into her veins, something of pride, of arrogance, of regained self-respect, that no talk, no liquor, no love could possibly give. Once more she felt like herself, and began thinking about the job with cool detachment instead of shame. Its problems, from balancing the dishes to picking up starters, flitted through her mind one after another, and she almost laughed that a few hours ago they had seemed formidable."
-- Mildred Piece by James M. Cain

One resource that I found helpful is the Mulholland/Scattergood Virtual Museum on the Water and Power Associates website, specifically the 7th page of the section "Early Views of Pasadena," which hosts dozens of photos of Colorado Ave in the 1930s. So, check them out if you're looking for references for historical California!

Released on this day in 1945, "Mildred Pierce". Is Veda the worst child in film noir or does that title belong to  another?
