1970 The Owl and the Pussycat began life as a two-character Broadway play by Bill Manhoff, about a stuffy author who entered into an explosive relationship with his neighbor, a foulmouthed, freewheeling prostitute. George Segal portrays the male lead. Beyond the added characters (including Robert Klein as Segal’s swinging roommate), the heart and soul of the film is the Segal-Streisand relationship; he is utterly appalled by her lifestyle, she is turned off by his prudishness, and both are made for each other. I suppose opposites attract.

The opulent costumes were designed by Academy Award-winner Sandy Powell, and the film wasn’t bad either. I highly reccommend.

Gilda is a voyeuristic film noir treat starring Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford, that engages the viewer in a complex web of sado-masochistic triangles. When, for example, Gilda performs her signature number, “Put the Blame on Mame,” she is not simply enraging both of her suitors with her open sexuality, she is also crying out in pain for the love she is being denied. Juicy!

This issue of Vogue with Sarah Jessica Parker was released early this year (June 08). Odd that in most of the shots, Sarah is turned away from the camera.
