The greatest star of all

Once, You won't remember, if you said Hollywood, hers was the face you'd think of.
Her face on every billboard, in just a single week she'd get ten thousand letters.

Men would offer fortunes for a bloom from her corsage or a few strands from her hair.

Today she's half forgotten. But it's the pictures that got small. She is the greatest star of all.
Then, you can't imagine, the way fans sacrificed themselves to touch her shadow.
There was a maharaja who hanged himself with one of her discarded stockings.
She's immortal, caught inside that flickering light beam. Is a youth that cannot fade.
Madame is a living legend; I've seen so many idols fall , She is the greatest star off all.

Yves Saint Laurent & Claudia Schiffer

Lyrics from Andrew Lloyd Weber’s Sunset Boulevard.

Musical version of Billy Wilder’s Sunset Boulevard (Boulevard du Crépuscule o El crepúsculo de los dioses).



Comme s'habiller selon le cinéma


Aujourd’hui, pas en français, désolé mais c’est pas marrant la traduction.
------------------------------------
De pequeño, yo quería ser gánster. Si algún día llego a serlo, desde luego no seré como Tony Soprano, me inspirare más bien en Botines Colombo, el exquisito Gánster de “Con faldas y a lo loco”. Su sello eran sus botines, que llevaba siempre.

- ¿Tampoco conoce la tintorería francesa de la avenida Wabash?
- ¿Por qué?

- Envió usted ahí para limpiar un par de botines manchados de sangre.

- Me corte mientras me afeitaba.

- ¿Se afeita con los botines puestos?

- ¡Yo hasta duermo con los botines puestos!

¿Cuál es vuestro sello? ¿Qué prenda lleváis siempre o casi siempre?

-----------------------------------
When I was a child I wanted to be a gangster. If someday I become one, I won’t be like Tony Soprano, I rather Spats Colombo, from Billy Wilder’s “Some like it hot”. The spats were his signature.

- Ever hear of Deluxe Cleaners on Wabash Avenue?

- Why?
- The day after the shoot you sent in spats with blood on them.

- I cut myself while shaving.
- You shave with spats on?

- I sleep with my spats on!

What item do you consider your signature? What complement or cloth you always wear?
