'There are going to be fewer but better Russians'

Ninotchka is one of my favorite movies of all time. It perfectly illustrates the dichotomy between capitalism and communism. Greta Garbo plays Ninotchka and this is the movie that was advertised, “Garbo laughs!” She has my favorite line at 8:38 in the clip above: “The last mass trials were a great success. There are going …

Hot Voodoo

I was reminded of this performance by Marlene Dietrich by a post by Reclusive Leftist, who was suggesting Halloween outfits. I first saw this in 1995 when I rented the movie to watch with my late life partner, Margaret Ardussi, after getting caught up in a biography of Marlene Dietrich that she had listened to …

Punksmacking for Gay Patriot, bitchslapping for Peggy Noonan
