Basically, anybody interviewed by someone from a newspaper or media chain, will have to expect the entire non-edited interview will be gobbled up by their AI for future use, unless strict conditions are first set.

DEAD MEDIA. A scrappy DIY horror film that is as Minneapolis a movie as it gets. When friends decide to spin up a long lost horror film, they find a special feature that unleashes the film into their home. Really uses DVD cleverly to create a new kind of analog horror. Really dug it. Coming soon!

Ida Lupino in Buddy Westmore’s make-up chair—being “trollop-ized” in the words of Paramount’s publicity department—while working on “The Light That Failed” (1939)

Lupino sits in make up chair, upper body covered with a protective sheet. Westmore leans over her, applying makeup under her left eye. A counter covered in jar, bottles and makeup tools is immediately behind them.

Original caption:
TROLLOP-IZING--It isn't' a new Hollywood diet, but a type of makeup that gives a slovenly appearance to a lovely young girl. Ida Lupino undergoes the treatment at the hands of "Buddy" Westmore for her role in Paramount's "The Light That Failed." The young English actress plays the immortal Bessie role in William A. Wellman's filmization of the Kipling classic.

Watching this routine, it’s clear why Dick Van Dyke was picked by Carl Reiner to star in his 1969 film THE COMIC, a story about a silent film comedian. He clearly had the skills, he just needed the right movie to show them off in.

Please do a BREAKING post about the Mayor of Los Angeles, and how much crime has decreased since she took office. LA recently reported historic drops in violent crime, including decreases tied to community safety initiatives like the Office of the @mayor.lacity.gov Summer Night Lights program

Mayor Karen Bass • Jul 3 •
•••
Those long, summer nights can be times of trouble, but by providing positive activities for families and young people and activating our parks at night, Summer Night Lights is proven to increase public safety - and it's a way for people to have a lot of fun, too.

A 27% DROP
in homicides in neighborhoods most impacted by violence, referred to as Gang Reduction and Youth Development (GRYD) zones across the city. This coincided with a 19% citywide drop in homicides, the lowest on record in 60 years for the City of Los Angeles.

Ida Lupino in a scene from her sitcom “Mr. Adams and Eve.” This second season episode was titled “UCLA, eh!” and aired on Apr 8, 1958. “Taking view that college education will insure their motion picture futures, Eve and Howard (Ida Lupino and Howard Duff) enroll in Ancient History course at UCLA“

Lupino sits in a classroom, with younger students who are looking at her. She has a wide-eyed, confused look. She is wearing an outfit that might be perceived as typical for a college student of the time, including jeans rolled up just below the knee.

The Lupino family in Hollywood, late 1935: Stanley and Connie Lupino with their daughters Ida and Rita, then 17 and 14 years old. Stanley was on a visit from England. Ida and Connie had moved to Hollywood two years earlier; Rita joined them earlier in 1935.

In a rustic living room with a large fireplace, Stanley and Connie sit on a sofa, Stanley reading a book. On the floor immediately in front of them sit Ida and Rita, playing checkers.

Ida Lupino and Brian Aherne in “Forever and a Day” (1943), an entertaining wartime anthology film.

Lupino, in a maid’s outfit, and Aherne, in a flamboyant suit of the late 1800s, in a crowded street scene. Lupino is propping herself up on a small fence, holding a small British flag, while Aherne is close behind her. Both are looking expectantly into the distance, along with the crowd behind them.
