UPDATE on @frank : Barb A. Fella colour tests*. It took many attempts to finally get her design to a place where she “goes with” Frank. Much happier with this. Her boobs are inspired by
Jimbo the Drag Clown & her “don’t-fuck-with-me” glare by #JoanCrawford.*The BGs are temp, from Mr Magoo, and the direction I'm taking. These were by the incomparable Sterling Sturtevant, a key UPA artist you should learn all about: https://animationobsessive.substack.com/p/when-sterling-sturtevant-perfected #animation #lgbtq #queerart #indieanimation #scifi

SIGUE ⬇️
Quizá fue la mujer más inteligente de toda aquella generación.
Lo curioso es que muchas de estas estrellas parecían completamente distintas cuando se apagaban las cámaras.
Humphrey Bogart, que interpretaba a tipos duros, era conocido por su sentido del humor.
Cary Grant, su imagen era la del caballero perfecto, pero en privado tenía un humor muy travieso.
Era amigo íntimo de Randolph Scott y en las fiestas le encantaba gastar bromas a sus invitados.
Años después también habló abiertamente de las sesiones de LSD supervisadas por médicos que realizó en los años cincuenta para superar problemas emocionales, algo muy poco habitual en una estrella de su categoría.Marlene Dietrich podía beber tanto como cualquiera de sus compañeros y seguir siendo la persona mejor vestida de la sala.
Y luego estaba Katharine Hepburn.
Mientras muchas actrices se dejaban moldear por los estudios, ella hacía exactamente lo contrario.
Fue de las primeras en aparecer en público llevando pantalones cuando casi ninguna mujer lo hacía.
En los rodajes era famosa por discutir con directores, negarse a aceptar órdenes que consideraba absurdas y mandar a paseo a quien intentara decirle cómo debía comportarse.Su gran historia de amor fue Spencer Tracy.
Se conocieron durante el rodaje de "La mujer del año" (1942) y mantuvieron una relación durante casi tres décadas.
El problema era que Tracy seguía casado con Louise Treadwell.
Nunca se divorció, en parte por sus profundas convicciones católicas y porque no quería perjudicar a su esposa ni a su hijo, que era sordo.Durante años Hepburn aceptó vivir aquella relación casi en la sombra.
Apenas aparecían juntos en público y evitaban alimentar los rumores, aunque en Hollywood era un secreto a voces.Pero la historia no fue precisamente idílica.
Tracy tenía graves problemas con el alcohol.
Sus borracheras eran frecuentes y su carácter podía cambiar por completo cuando bebía.
Hepburn lo cuidó durante años, soportando recaídas, depresiones y largas temporadas en las que él apenas trabajaba.Muchos amigos decían que Katharine sacrificó parte de su propia vida por permanecer a su lado.
Cuando Spencer Tracy murió en 1967, Hepburn ni siquiera acudió al funeral por respeto a la esposa de Tracy.
Esperó a que terminara la ceremonia antes de visitar la casa para presentar sus condolencias.Años después escribiría que había sido el gran amor de su vida.
Sin embargo, su personalidad seguía siendo tan fuerte como siempre.
En una ocasión, un productor le dijo que ninguna actriz era más importante que un estudio.
Katharine respondió con una sonrisa:
"Pruebe a hacer la película sin mí."
Y, sorprendentemente, podía permitírselo.
💡 Una curiosidad: Katharine Hepburn y John Wayne se llevaban fatal.
Ella lo consideraba un actor limitado y Wayne opinaba que Hepburn era demasiado intelectual y poco femenina para el gusto del público.
Nunca trabajaron juntos y se lanzaron varias pullas a través de la prensa.Y mientras todo aquello sucedía...
Los periódicos seguían hablando del glamour de Hollywood.
Porque alguien se ocupaba de borrar las huellas antes del amanecer.
Aquella era la verdadera magia de la industria del cine.
No consistía solo en crear películas.
Consistía en convencer al mundo de que sus estrellas eran perfectas... aunque la realidad, una vez apagados los focos, estuviera muy lejos de serlo

Trekofiles — don't miss this one. Wow!
#JoanCrawford isn;t #StarTrek— but Gene sure is. So eye-opening at his younger attitudes and ambitions, 4 years before "The Cage."

One of the most interesting scripts @theLogBook and I have covered thus far for #MissionLogGeneology is a pitch for The #JoanCrawford Show, where Joan is a successful lawyer, monumental for 1961. The Trek Files had Earl on to discuss Gene's script for this show, "A Man's World." #GeneRoddenberry #StarTrek #nerdlyfe https://sites.libsyn.com/112755/15-8-rewriting-joan-crawford
