3 things about Otto Preminger’s BONJOUR TRISTESSE [1958]
1. Deborah Kerr’s cashmere (?) car dress in ivory.
2. The patio at twilight. On the right, the group tanks up prior to their trip to the casino; on the left, the housemaid swigs a beer while standing behind the bar.
3. Subterranean powder room with an asymmetrical mirror.

Blake Edwards, Peter Sellers – Der rosarote Panther (1963)
Liebe GenX-Y-Z, ihr müsst jetzt stark sein. Denn über diesen Film, auch weil er noch älter ist, als ich selbst, haben viele Boomer:innen schon ihr ganzes Leben lachen können.

this evening's viewing, a delightfully silly 1970s horror-comedy, Vampira (aka Old Dracula in the US).
It is *very* 70s, the racial elements (probably well meant then) have not aged well, but David Niven carries it along, there's a brace of well-known names from Fredie Jones to Bernard Breslaw, cheesy humour & music, but still has a certain daft charm, somehow
