Poor Angela Lansbury, and she was so hot, too! I watched the Court Jester semi-recently and was a little amazed that she was so attractive and sexy. It broke my brain a little... Mrs Potts is not supposed to be sexy!

you want to see fun, check youtube for her starring in the stage production of sweeny todd. absolute dark comedy in parts. :)

Oh, believe me, I've watched it too. My poor childhood, so abused!

Ouch! What an ad.

I wonder-- is this where the term "pancaked" make-up came from?

I do miss Max Factor, though. Loved their waterproof mascara-- that stuff wouldn't come off unless I expresses wanted it to come off, with no flaking either.

'Pan-cake' really refers to how it was put up, not what it looked like on you ;) I love vintage makeup, and actually kept a package of this from my days in high school musicals (when Gerald Ford was president). By then it was primarily used as theatrical foundtion, but a deft hand could make it work for daily wear.

How did 'cake' ever make anything sound good? Other than actual cake, of course.

Mmmmmm, cake....
