#nowwatching🎬 Carmen Jones, part of #regenerationblackcinema at @diadetroit Have longed to see this in a theatre, and now's my chance. Dorothy Dandridge plays the title, updating Bizet's opera to a parachute factory in Jacksonville and Harry Belafonte is Joe, a soldier she is hellbent on claiming. Their voices are dubbed by Marilynn Horne and Le Vern Hutcherson as neither Dorothy nor Harry were classically trained. Also stars Pearl Bailey as Frankie, who sings the showstopping Beat Out Dat Rhythm on a Drum with drum solos by Max Roach (Go, Max!!!), Olga James as Joe's rejected sweetheart Cindy Lou, and Joe Adams as a prizefighter who completes Carmen's love triangle. #carmenjones #dorothydandridge #harrybelafonte #pearlbailey #joeadams #oldhollywoodmusicals #blackcinema #blacksinoldhollywood

Every day I am reminded of the sheets I collected from the USPS Legends of Hollywood stamp series—all framed—but you become so used to seeing them, there are times I have to stop myself and actually *look* at them, be in the moment, mindful, and present. But during that series, to my knowledge, there was no #DorothyDandridge (or #SidneyPoitier ... or #HarryBelafonte or #RubyDee or #OssieDavis or #DianaSands or #DiahannCarroll). (Yes! There is the incredible #LenaHorne for the Black Heritage collection! 👏🏾) Which brought my mind specifically to Dorothy Dandridge ... Fact. When you stop to think of the impact Dorothy Dandridge had with one film alone, #CARMENJONES (1954), *one film alone*, that *to this date* is talked about, referenced, and met with enthusiasm, even in clips from people who have never seen the film before, she is recognized instantly through a still shot from the film or a publicity image of her, never mind in her iconic red pencil skirt and off-the-shoulder black blouse (designed by Mary Ann Nyberg). That one film ... immortalized Dorothy Dandridge. And to use the word "icon" in association with Dandridge is not misused. Combining her work outside CARMEN JONES/films—child star, nightclub acts, television appearances—made me reflect strongly--scratch that--reminded me, confirmed, only proves something I have thought and mentioned before ... Imagine what sort of career Dandridge would have had, the scope, had the field been COMPLETELY open for her equivalent to a Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly, Ava Gardner, Audrey Hepburn? In spite of, Dorothy is still remembered, discovered, and discussed today. And despite the end of the Legends of Hollywood stamp series (as far as I know, 1995 — 2016), placing her, Dorothy Dandridge—and other Black actors of that era who made an impact, changed the game, and were so way ahead of their time, "Hollywood" still hasn't fully read the memo—on a #LegendsOfHollywood stamp is ... overdue.

One of my favourite inspirations is the great Dorothy Dandridge! The American actress was ( and still is !) the embodiment of glamour and the "50's" chic.⁠ ⁠ I discovered Dorothy in the iconic movie Carmen Jones and was mesmerized by her aura and strength.⁠ ⁠ Her career is inspiring, and her legacy even more so: Dorothy has opened up voices to a world behind her as she was the first black American actress to be nominated for an Oscar. ⁠Proving that the impossible doesn't exist and that there's no stronger force than female resilience.⁠ ⁠ The great stylist to the stars, Edith Head, once said "You can have anything you want in life if you dress for it." and I couldn't agree more!⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #inspiration #oscars #dorothydandridge #carmenjones

Great beauty Vivian Dandridge (born April 22, 1921), sister of the more famous Dorothy Dandridge, was given the moniker ‘The Black Marilyn Monroe’ (so too incidentally was the songstress Joyce Bryant), during her 20-year career. • Born in Cleveland, Ohio to Cyril and Ruby, her parent’s split shortly before the birth of her sister. To make ends meet, Ruby and then girlfriend Neva, put both young girls’ boundless energy to work. Billed as “The Wonder Children”, the duo was eventually earning upwards of $500 per appearance singing, dancing, and performing skits. • However, when the 1929 Stock Market crash hit, both women and the girls struggled. Ruby’s solution, Hollywood, with Vivian making her debut as a ‘Native Child’ in “King Kong” (1933), starring Fay Wray and Bruce Cabot, for RKO Studios. • Later, Mrs. Dandridge formed a trio for her daughters with Etta Jones. Billed as The Dandridge Sisters, they were likened to The Andrew Sisters, and began appearing in musical segments onscreen as well as touring with Nat King Cole among others. • The trio went on to feature in the films “The Big Broadcast of 1936”, “A Day at the Races” (1937), “Going Places” (1938), and Irene (1940), before Vivien went on to play Bob Hope’s servant in “Road to Morocco” (1942). • In 1943, she voiced ‘So White’ in the animated “Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarfs”, one of the ‘Censored Eleven’ animated cartoons withheld from syndication since the 1960s, with Ruby voicing her mother. • When Dorothy disbanded the trio as her own career blossomed, Vivien struggled to find work. For a time, they became estranged, though by the time Dorothy had been Academy Award nominated for “Carmen Jones”, in 1954, bad feelings had been put aside. The reunion was temporary, however, as a feud broke out the following year. • When Dorothy died in 1965, a distraught Vivien had all but given up on showbusiness, though made brief comeback in 1968 with the jazz LP “The Look of Love”. By the time the 1970s arrived, Vivien had disappeared from view, living quietly under the name “Marina Rozall” in Seattle, Washington. • Vivian Dandridge who married at least five times, died in October 1991, aged 70. • •

For more info behind the #dandridgemonroe design here is the story behind it for the ignorant people in the back. Every real designer tells a story. I would never release a design without a real story behind it. #marilynmonroe has paved the way for all of her #Africanamerican friends in #Hollywood during segregation. She used her voice and privilege to help them advance in their careers. There would not be any Anita Bakers, Tina Turners of the world if she did not help our Artist excel in their careers. I told the story of her friendship with #dorothydandridge in which is where the #Dandridgemonroe design originated from. #Icons #legends #historylesson #ellafitzgerald

Old Hollywood Glamour is Back! “It’s all about glam: The Old-Hollywood style fiercly reveals as the new trend alert Over the last months, all fashion insiders and celebs have been pointing out the old-hollywood style. We have seen in movies, tv shows and even in the way of dressing a fashion change, more colourful, more vintage and refined. This is because of the Old Hollywood style influence, which returns with great ambition in our lifestyle derived from a post-pandemic “depression”. Old Hollywood defines the golden years of the film industry, which runs from the 1920s to the late 1950s. In these films, not only did the sets and interior design stand out, but the “perfect life” that the characters apparently had. This was also reflected in the clothing, the hairstyle & the makeup”. #oldhollywood #hollywoodglam #quietonset #actress #writer #screenwriter #indiefilms #hollyweird #lightscameraaction #DorothyDandridge #LenaHorne #EarthaKitt #BillieHoliday #JacquelineOday Photography: @roycoxstudio Makeup: @steelebeautifulmua Gown: @fashionnova Cinematography: @jaypsychs

I don’t do my makeup to impress boys, I do it to enchant my eyes, I do it to honor the old Hollywood vixens who inspire even after they retire, I channel Marilyn, Dorothy, and Ella, ‘Cause these ladies were goddesses on earth and didn’t need a fella to validate their worth. They could dance, they could act, they could sing. When they opened their mouths they’d give you a sting and yet, like a moth to a flame, No one could refrain from begging for a zap every now and then. I like to think of them as my little friends, My inspiration, The gals I look up to, They embody class and allure, certainly, they didn’t ask for more because they knew they deserved it anyway. @monaaleesah.poetry #poetry #poems #writingcommunity #sassygirl #lovepoem #oldhollywood #glamour #queenthings #poetrysociety #blackandwhitephotography #highexpectations #writer #marilynmonroe #dorothydandridge #retro #highmaintenance
