The actor (Jack Lemmon's son) is dressed as a Vegas showgirl for two episodes of a 1989 television comedy Open House. I had been looking for a photo of this femulation for years and I thank you readers who sent me the link.
The photo does not do Lemmon's femulation justice – he looks like a man in showgirl drag.
I saw those episodes when they were originally televised and in my opinion, he looked a lot better than the photo's depiction. In fact, he looked so hot that his TV wife got very excited about his appearance, started making out with him/her and suggested that he dress as a woman more often!

I dunno about you, but whenever I see an ad like the one Macy's emailed me today that reads "Women's Dresses," I always wonder why are they being so specific? Do they also sell men's dresses?

'Some Like it Hot' is my perfect movie. (Especially since, unlike modern movies, it keeps a linear narrative)
ReplyDeleteAnd after 2 perfect hours, in the last brilliant minute, there's the (approximate) dialog:
Daphne (pulling his wig off) :'You don't understand - I'm a boy'
Osgood Fielding: 'Oh that's OK, nobody's perfect!"
SOMEWHERE I have an ad I saved from Macys or Penneys or something which listed "men's dresses" on one page. If I find it, I'll pass it on.
ReplyDeleteI guess the moral is, being too specific can bite you in the butt.
baci baci baci !! grazie
ReplyDeleteI suspect Macy's specifies women's dresses to differentiate from misses dresses and juniors dresses.
ReplyDeleteThat makes good sense...though they "could" also be saying it as a veiled way to keep men out!
