HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LOUISE BROOKS,
who was born on this day in 1906 in Cherryvale, Kansas
"Louise Brooks is the only woman who had the ability to transfigure no matter what film into a masterpiece. The poetry of Louise is the great poetry of rare loves, of magnetism, of tension, of feminine beauty as blinding as ten galaxial suns. She is much more than a myth, she is a magical presence, a real phantom, the magnetism of the cinema."
