I still do have a pacemaker!
I want to write about something that doesn’t have a thing to do with my having a pacemaker, or even with me having a heart condition. But it is something that I am very interested in, and if you love me…you will read it regardless of the lack of medical jargin in it. Or just read it out of sympathy…I am a messed up little girl…*j/k*
If you know me, or have gotten to know me through this, you should know that I love old movies. Older the better. Silent. Black and white. I love them! I have this list of my movie stars I love and what movies of theirs I want/need to see, and the sad thing is, a lot of their movies are lost due to fire damage or they just decomposed and turned into dust. I just think that is the saddest thing. I mean, these beautiful movie stars in the good ole’ days of Hollywood…and we don’t get a chance to see some of them in action. Like Theda Bara, I love her. Only about three of her movies exist to this day because of a fire in the building storing her movies. She was so popular and made these great movies, but all we can see is pictures from these movies. Ugh! It makes me want to go back in time and go to the big, beautiful movie theaters and watch the movies while the live orchestra plays the background music.
I would love to do movie restoration as a side job. I have such a admiration for these old movies, it would be great to see more of the Talmadge sisters, or Clara Bow on these films. It would be totally cool to find an abandoned film hidden in my basement…thats where a lot of them are found. In old theaters, basements, etc. Someone even found some in an abandoned pool! If I found one….ooh, I get goosebumps! It would be very cool.
I just wanted to write about this because it is something I really do care about. Thanks for reading!!
