The only image I’ve ever seen of the older Louise Brooks - beautiful as ever and shown with an also lovely Maine Coon cat who is monopolizing the focus. via ivorywind who is quoted below…
Oh, Louise Brooks - your love of Maine Coon cats only makes you more of a hot-shit.
Adolphe Menjou & Louise Brooks are as close as a close shave in “A Social Celebrity” (1926) via whataboutbobbed:
A Social Celebrity (1926) is a silent comedy drama starring Louise Brooks as a small town manicurist who goes to New York with her boyfriend (Adolphe Menjou), a barber who poses as a French count. The film is now considered a lost film.[1]
I’m going to post 3 images of the lovely Louise Brooks today. Just cuz that’s a wonderful thing on any day. Happy Friday!
