Found this because I just watched Perfect Murder again and I was searching for the address of the Taylor apartment. I agree it was very well done. Also don't forget just about any interior in Interiors. Minimalism at its best. I've come across your blog before and love it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-64756040163726552912007-06-20T09:23:00.000-04:002007-06-20T09:23:00.000-04:00Grey Dame- Oh yes, I love all of those old movies....Grey Dame- Oh yes, I love all of those old movies. I did a Google image search to find these images, but, there are some books on Amazon that have pics as well. Do a search for author Howard Mandelbaum. I have his book on thirties screen style, and it's pretty good. I would like his book on forties' style, but haven't purchased that one yet. But I agree, it's hard to find decent shots- ones in which you can really see the set!The Peak of Chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02811933436075145329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-12452073011507148442007-06-19T22:01:00.000-04:002007-06-19T22:01:00.000-04:00I can not believe I have finally found someone as ...I can not believe I have finally found someone as fascinated with those interiors as I am. Top Hat is the best (of all time), Joy of Living, Life of the Party, and absolutely any Busby Berkely musical (the Golddiggers of 1935, etc.) whose endings are spectacular. You are right, you, (I) could go on and on. Set directors & designers make the difference, VanNest Polglase, Darrell Silvera, etc. I am going to start to redo my bedroom and sitting room as soon as the weather cools, and I can not find but a few set images at all. I have googled and dittoed images, but set pictures are hard to find. How in the world did you find these pictures you have shown, and how, oh how, can I find more to help get me started? This is a diy, and I need help! I am just tickled pink (and white stripes) to see others enjoy those sets!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01276125895537132280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-86031067152159220592007-02-26T20:52:00.000-05:002007-02-26T20:52:00.000-05:00VDOprincess- Glad you liked both of those movies. ...VDOprincess- Glad you liked both of those movies.
