About

welcome: I’m Kristina and in case it isn’t obvious, I love classic movies,  Hollywood history, music & general retro pop culture. I’m a regular writer for the NOIR FAN’S BIMONTHLY PUBLICATION, DARK PAGES, & contribute to various other blogs. I run a business and sometimes I do CUSTOM ARTWORK 

“MY MAJOR  WORKS”
from Films of the Golden Age Magazine: my article on the making of the 1933 prohibition gangster musical BROADWAY THROUGH A KEYHOLE  the controversial plot was based on NY gossip & written by Walter Winchell ”about” Al Jolson and Ruby Keeler, & starred Paul Kelly, nightclub queen Tex Guinan, crooner Russ Columbo, and many more. It has tragedy, gossip, history and more. How can you turn that down?

from Classic Images magazine: my extensive biography on great character actor PAUL KELLY who was a rising star when he became the center of a scandalous and sensational manslaughter trial– then considered the celebrity trial of the young century–and how he managed to rebuild his life & career afterwards.

My bio of  WARD BOND, great actor, athlete, conservative activist and close friend of John Wayne & John Ford.

misc stuff:

I don’t maintain a links page anymore; instead, I rotate the featured top right sidebar to link to a speakeasy friend, someone who’s linked to, promoted, or otherwise done a good turn for this blog.
