Today is going to be a good day...I woke up and caught one of my favorite movies from the beginning.
Mahogany.
I love that movie...The clothes, LOVE IT!. Billy Dee Williams (I know most are too young to even know who he is...heck I am too to be honest)...but love him!
I love the end.
Brian: "Do you want me to help you with your landlord, lady?"
Tracy: "Hell, no! I want you to get me my old man back."
Brian: "Madam, if you really want your old man back, are you prepared to stand by him when the going's getting rough?
Tracy: "Yes!"
Brian: "Madam, would you be willing to put your imagination to work on behalf of the cause he's fighting for?"
Tracy: "Yes!"
Brian: "Madam, would you love and cherish him for the rest of your life?"
Tracy: "Yes!"
Brian: "Madam--"
Tracy: "Yes?"
Brian: "If you're willing to do all that, I guarantee you I'll get you your old man back."
Tracy: "Then, mister, you've got my vote."
Love it!! Is the movie cheesy? Yes? Could it have been a better production? Probably but I still love it so:)
This feels like this is about to be a random post so I will just leave you with a clip of the movie.
THAT CLUTCH AND HAT AND CAPE in the first part of the clip...I WOULD SO ROCK THAT TO DEATH! That ensemble gives me the chills. I would wear it to go to the grocery store and look at people stupid if they stared at me!
Now sing with me...Do you know where you're going to...
Come to think of it...I dress with a little Diana Ross influence...I love big sleeves and fitted bodices. We all have a little Diana in us don't we?
And I would SOOOOO wear this striped caftan in the following clip! I SO WOULD!
**update** It's 10:14pm and I am flipping the channels... WHY AM I WATCHING the video Mirror, Mirror by Diana Ross! Weird...and I am jamming too!! Love the big hair and the big sleeves!**
