This one is odd for me because I have the pash for both Glenn Miller and Jimmy Stewart. I mean, I was really into Glenn Miller. He was no Artie Shaw, but he had it going on.
People were so sexy in the late 30s-early 40s. Then they got really boring for awhile, and artifice was the new sexiness. Whatever.
Donna Summer, “I Feel Love”
One of my favorite 5 minutes in film history, from The More the Merrier, 1943. (A Thing to Know about this scene; she’s had a bit to drink.)
Peter Lawford with Vera-Ellen, probably 1947.
Frank Sinatra, Peter Lawford, Dean Martin
Peter Lawford and Marilyn Monroe, 1962
Peter Lawford with his wife Pat, probably late 50s.
Peter Lawford in Florida, 1947
Irresistible You…
