Well, yes, since you asked, yes. You are mad.
I love the hats in these old movies:

This doesn't seem to be much reviewed, and I imagine it was dismissed as a stiff, inconsequential effort not worth reviewing. It's fun if you're a Karloff fan.

I agree the hats & sometimes those really big should pads. I'm a hat wearer so I'm always looking for new ideas. Boris I think was the quintessential doctor or scientist gone to the dark side - too bad he did not live long enough for the Star Wars movies
ReplyDeleteI just recently took shoulder pads out of an old jacket lol Maybe I should've left them... ;) I just looked, and he died in 1969 and worked until the year of his death, so he didn't really miss it by much. That is a shame. He'd have been fun to see in some of the newer sf movies.
DeleteI love Karloff. His voice is so mesmerizing. I like the hats and dresses from the old movies, but I'd never wear them. I tore all the shoulder pads from my jackets when shoulder pads were big in the 1980s. I felt like I was a linebacker.
ReplyDeleteThat man did have a way about him. He seemed to be enjoying himself :) I wore the shoulder pads, but I looked ridiculous lol
DeleteWhen I think of old horror movies, Bori Karloff springs to mind, he is such an iconic actor of horror films and I seem to remember him being English too 😀. Enjoy your week! J 😊 x
ReplyDeleteBorn in what is now London, according to Wikipedia, but he began his acting career in Canada. He is the face that comes to mind, isn't he! From 1918 through posthumous releases years after his death. He spanned generations.
DeleteI remember this one from way back when! I used to love Boris Karloff. Have a great day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteHe's always fun to watch and listen to. I'm glad he has such a large body of work.
