Darlings, Look At All These Production Sketches By Vincente Minnelli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Along With Cecil Beaton, The Screen Never Before Or Since Has Had Such Great Artistry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


   

 



Girls, I know this is more an exhibition than a post, but I just had to show you some of these great Minnelli sketches, as he does not get enough credit for his artistry.  And I am not talking about the biggies like "Meet Me In St. Louis," or "Gigi."  I am also talking about the little-known films everyone forgets he directed, like 1955's "The Cobweb," and 1956's "Tea And Sympathy."

       Certainly, by this time he has had his share of retrospectives and exhibitions, but I think it is time again for a Minnelli Renaissance, as there are now whole generations out there who don't know who the hell he is or was.  And LIZA just turned 80 for, God's sake. So, girls get to the nearest DVD store, stock up on Minnelli films, and have a binge festival.  Perfect for Gay Pride.


And cheaper than a college--even community college--course in Art History!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
