Harlow's popularity rivaled and soon surpassed that of her MGM colleagues Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer. She had become one of the biggest movie stars in the world by the late 1930s, often nicknamed the "Blond Bombshell" and the "Platinum Blonde", and popular for her "Laughing Vamp" movie persona.
She died during the filming of Saratoga in 1937 at the age of 26. The film was completed using doubles and released a little over a month after Harlow's death. The American Film Institute ranked her as the 22nd greatest female star of classic Hollywood cinema.
Molly de Mora (Paula Marshall) invites her divorced parents (Bette Midler and Dennis Farina) to her wedding reception, where they see each other for the first time in 14 years. A shouting match between the two ensues. Following this, their spark is rekindled during the wedding reception. Over the next few days they fall in love again and run off together, thereby upsetting the newlyweds' honeymoon and their respective (current) spouses. If the scandal was made public it would be more controversial than usual, since the bride's husband hopes to stand for election to Congress. After searching for her parents and getting to know Joey Donna (Danny Nucci), her mother's number one paparazzi nicknamed "The Cockroach", whom she hires to help her find them, Molly decides that her parents deserve a chance to be together and gives them her honeymoon to Hawaii. When Keith objects to her decision, it is revealed that he slept with her stepmother. Knowing now that her marriage was a mistake, Molly runs off with Joey as her parents run off to Hawaii.
The song first appeared in the movieVogues of 1938, actually released in 1937. It was immediately a hit in a version recorded by Shep Fields and His Rippling Rhythm Orchestra, considered to have spent fourteen weeks on the charts in 1937, four at #1. (The charts did not actually exist in those days, but reconstructions of what they would have been give those statistics.) A version was also recorded by Jan Garber, which charted at #10.)
The song is also featured in the 1981 film, Body Heat, played at an outdoor summer concert by a big band on stage.
In the 1971 novel Summer of '42 by Herman Raucher, the song is prominent in chapter 19. That's when the main character, Hermie, visits Dorothy shortly after she has received the news of her husband's death in World War II. The song clearly was the favorite of Dorothy and her husband, and she dances with Hermie as the phonograph record plays. Unfortunately, the movie version substituted some original music titled "The Summer Knows" for this classic song, which takes much of the period flavor away from the movie moment.
Harlow is a predominantly new town and local government district in the west of Essex, England. Situated on the border with Hertfordshire, it occupies a large area of land on the left bank of the upper Stort Valley, which has been made navigable through other towns and features a canal section near its watermill. Old Harlow is a village-sized suburb founded by the early medieval age and most of its high street buildings are early Victorian and residential. In Old Harlow is a field named Harlowbury, a de-settled monastic area which has the remains of a chapel, a scheduled ancient monument.
The M11 motorway passes through the east of the Borough, entirely to the east of the town. Harlow has its own commercial and leisure economy. It is also an outer part of the London commuter belt and employment centre of the M11 corridor which includes Cambridge and London Stansted to the north. At the time of the 2011 Census, Harlow's population was recorded at 81,944 and its borough had the third-highest proportion of social housing in England, 26.9%, a legacy of the 1947 commitment to re-house blitzed London families after World War II and provide a percentage of homes for other needy families who cannot afford market rents.
Noticing a beautiful girl in the background of a Laurel and Hardy film, actor Marc Peters tips off studio mogul Jonathan Martin, who arranges a screen test. Jean Harlow is an overnight success.
Harlow isn't a trained thespian and is mocked by experienced actor William Mansfield, but she is sexy and she's got something audiences respond to that makes her a Hollywood star. Unfortunately for her, she's also got a mother, Mama Jean, who quickly capitalizes on her daughter's money and fame.
Family and studio demands unnerve Harlow, as does her impulsive wedding to Paul Bern, who turns out to be impotent and suicidal. Harlow has many unhappy affairs and becomes depressed. But the veteran actress Marie Dressler persuades her to take her profession more seriously, so Harlow goes back East to study her craft.
1974-1983: The Urban District of Harlow, and in the Rural District of Epping and Ongar the civil parishes of Magdalen Laver, Matching, Nazeing, North Weald Bassett, Roydon, and Sheering.
1983-1997: The District of Harlow, and the District of Epping Forest wards of Nazeing, North Weald Bassett, Roydon, and Sheering.
1997-2010: The District of Harlow, and the District of Epping Forest wards of Nazeing, Roydon, and Sheering.
2010-present: The District of Harlow, and the District of Epping Forest wards of Hastingwood, Matching and Sheering Village, Lower Nazeing, Lower Sheering, and Roydon.
History
This seat was created in 1974 from the former seat of Epping and until changes introduced in time for the 2010 election included part of the electoral ward of Broadley Common, Epping Upland and Nazeing.
Constituency profile
The seat has been a bellwether since the result in 1983. Included are above county-average levels of social housing, underemployment and unemployment as at the 2001 census and the associated 2000 Index of Multiple Deprivation however the new town has brought growth sustained in part by more commuting with an increasingly-used and separate Mill station in the London Commuter Belt and has seen a 9.2% increase in the number of apartments to 2011 which brings the proportion of the housing market made up by flats and apartments to 23.8%.
The Old Felix Jug Band - Jean Harlow Died The Other Day
The Old Felix Jug Band played together over a 4 year spell ending around 1971 when the band all lived in Ayr, Scotland. This song was learned from the repertoire of the late great Hamish Imlach who as well as being renowned for his belly laugh humour and frightening capacity for whisky was an excellent blues & ragtime guitarist. Famously Hamish would normally drink most of a bottle of whisky in stage performance. At one of Hamish's 1960's folk club gigs in Ayr he brought a pal along who turned out to be none other than Stephan Grossman, the brilliant American ragtime guitarist.

I'll keep this short. Before May of this year, pre-codes weren't something I was overly passionate about. I didn't hate them- I just had never really explored this pocket of film history to its fullest extent. Almost by accident (I was on a Barbara Stanwyck binge), I ended up watching several pre-codes in a short period of time and an overwhelming love was born. If you've never explored this period of film history- I highly recommend it. Go visit the sensational "http://pre-code.com", read up on the essential films and actors/actresses of the period and dive in head first! They're fun, salacious, daring and unforgettable. You won't regret it.

I'll keep this short. Before May of this year, pre-codes weren't something I was overly passionate about. I didn't hate them- I just had never really explored this pocket of film history to its fullest extent. Almost by accident (I was on a Barbara Stanwyck binge), I ended up watching several pre-codes in a short period of time and an overwhelming love was born. If you've never explored this period of film history- I highly recommend it. Go visit the sensational "http://pre-code.com", read up on the essential films and actors/actresses of the period and dive in head first! They're fun, salacious, daring and unforgettable. You won't regret it.

UGH. She's still into old movies...really?! If you made it this far, I simultaneously congratulate and thank you!
As the description says, THIS IS WHY I LOVE CLASSIC FILMS. While I appreciate a gritty character-driven drama or film noir as much as the next person, THIS is what I truly love about Old Hollywood- the funny, goofy, vibrant, giddy moments that make these films so unforgettable. This video has no form or structure and is just a mash-up of some my favourite stars and moments from their films. I also tried to choose as many films as I could that didn't appear in either "Lovers in Japan" or "Bittersweet Symphony". I want each video to be new and surprising- hopefully I achieved that for you guys!
SIDE NOTE - This has to be the only video on YouTube to feature both Franchot Tone AND Ralph Bellamy. And purposefully at that!
As for the quote at the beginning...well, I can't really explain that except to say that Edward Everett Horton and Eric Blore are sensational. "But hornet's nests grow on trees, sir..." I hope it makes you laugh...I don't know, maybe it's something only I find funny (although, admittedly, after watching it upwards of 100 times, the humour of the situation is lost on me). If that is the case, I sincerely apologise. And feel free to skip the first 25 seconds of the video. I hope the rest is to your liking!
Oh and the quote at the end of the video is from "Holiday" which is one of my FAVOURITE FILMS EVER. If you haven't seen it, SEE IT.

The Old Felix Jug Band played together over a 4 year spell ending around 1971 when the band all lived in Ayr, Scotland. This song was learned from the repertoire of the late great Hamish Imlach who as well as being renowned for his belly laugh humour and frightening capacity for whisky was an excellent blues & ragtime guitarist. Famously Hamish would normally drink most of a bottle of whisky in stage performance. At one of Hamish's 1960's folk club gigs in Ayr he brought a pal along who turned out to be none other than Stephan Grossman, the brilliant American ragtime guitarist.

UGH. She's still into old movies...really?! If you made it this far, I simultaneously congratulate and thank you!
As the description says, THIS IS WHY I LOVE CLASSIC FILMS. While I appreciate a gritty character-driven drama or film noir as much as the next person, THIS is what I truly love about Old Hollywood- the funny, goofy, vibrant, giddy moments that make these films so unforgettable. This video has no form or structure and is just a mash-up of some my favourite stars and moments from their films. I also tried to choose as many films as I could that didn't appear in either "Lovers in Japan" or "Bittersweet Symphony". I want each video to be new and surprising- hopefully I achieved that for you guys!
SIDE NOTE - This has to be the only video on YouTube to feature both Franchot Tone AND Ralph Bellamy. And purposefully at that!
As for the quote at the beginning...well, I can't really explain that except to say that Edward Everett Horton and Eric Blore are sensational. "But hornet's nests grow on trees, sir..." I hope it makes you laugh...I don't know, maybe it's something only I find funny (although, admittedly, after watching it upwards of 100 times, the humour of the situation is lost on me). If that is the case, I sincerely apologise. And feel free to skip the first 25 seconds of the video. I hope the rest is to your liking!
Oh and the quote at the end of the video is from "Holiday" which is one of my FAVOURITE FILMS EVER. If you haven't seen it, SEE IT.
Harlow's popularity rivaled and soon surpassed that of her MGM colleagues Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer. She had become one of the biggest movie stars in the world by the late 1930s, often nicknamed the "Blond Bombshell" and the "Platinum Blonde", and popular for her "Laughing Vamp" movie persona.
She died during the filming of Saratoga in 1937 at the age of 26. The film was completed using doubles and released a little over a month after Harlow's death. The American Film Institute ranked her as the 22nd greatest female star of classic Hollywood cinema.
I saw you last night and got that old feeling When you came in sight I got that old feeling The moment that you danced by I felt a thrill And when you caught my eye my heart stood still Once again I seem to feel that old yearning And I knew the spark of love was still burning There'll be no new romance for me. It's useless to start 'Cause that old feelin' is still in my heart There'll be no new romance for me. It's foolish to start 'Cause that old feelin' is still in my heart
