Hindle Wakes a Very Stylish Girl

  • “Set before a backdrop of Dickensian England switching over to the industrial age, it blends socio-sexual drama with elaborate technique and gimmickry to moderate success.” Maurice Elvey’s 1927 film, Hindle Wakes, now on DVD and reviewed at Flickhead.

  • Can you identify the movie dialogue and background music floating in and out of Une Very Stylish Fille by Dimitri from Paris?

    Une Very Stylish Fille features dialogue from Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the music (the brassy part with the sax, not the faux bossa) is from the little known Girl from Uncle series with Stephanie Powers. Of course, I'm sure you know that Boris Karloff made one of his last TV appearances on that show, in drag no less!

    Ah yes, good old Mother Muffin. ;)

    Mary Woronov rocks. I first really became aware of her in Hollywood Boulevard, and after we saw it, my friends and I proceeded to mimic Paul and Mary incessantly, during our own filmmaking adventures.
