Devilishly clever, sweetie. You make my Sundays even more betterer! *happy sigh*
Nice post but Satan is creepy
Well, that is sort of the point, darling, although in this case, it is simply the mild naughtiness of pre-code Hollywood. The “Madame Satan” in question is a costume worn to a masquerade by a wife trying to woo back her cheating husband.
I NEED that outfit on the poster. Need, I tell you.
Totally agree, Renae. I’ve looked through some of the stills of the film and haven’t found a shot of anything like that, so it may just be the art deco imaginings of the poster artists, but a ghoul can dream, no?
*does double-take*
“Well, hello there madame…”
Hello, darling.
What a lovely poster!
Thank you, darling. I love the art deco feel this one has.
