This reminds me of how Alex Ross, the comics painter, did this now infamous painting of the Joker and Harley Quinn and based it on an Arrow ad he vaguely remembered from the New Yorker (Ross mother was trained as a fashion illustrator and he talks about how he learned a lot from her).

Ida Lupino gets a TCM #SummerUnderTheStars day for the first time in 15 yrs on August 2 — with 13 films! All are worth watching, but my recommendations are everything outside of the prime time block, 8p-12a. (Those three are the movies of hers they air most regularly.) #TCMParty

All right, distraction time. Now watching Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban (2004). And remembering that Pam Ferris is by many accounts a lovely person; she’s just good at playing a jerk.
