For some reason today I was just feeling Old Hollywood, Vintage Glamour. It was then that I realized I HAVE to post some of my favorite pictures of my homegirl.. LILLIAN GISH!
Gish is widely described as the greatest actress of the silver screen. She started off her career in 1912 working on D.W. Griffith. She continued to woo the audiences until her passing in 1987. Gish's roles always consisted of fragile, virginal parts due to her deceptively frail look. She was female version of a hustla.. aka a DIVA!
" I never approved of talkies. Silent movies were well on their way to developing into an entirely new art form. It was not just pantomime, but something wonderfully expressive." Lillian Gish
