Hey, thanks, Amber! I've been waiting for someone to reply to my question. I went into a DVD store the other day and asked the kid who worked there if they had any Clara Bow movies, and you should have seen the totally blank, dumb stare he gave me! So I asked him if he had any old, classic movies... and he directed me to a section with movies from the 80's and 90's!
Yes, there is something about Clara, Jean, Marlene, and those other women from the 20's and early 30's -- and the amazing clothes and the entire style from that era -- that I find totally captivating and engrossing! I need to see more!!!
I'll look into the films you mention and your column and articles.
Thanks again!
