First known tree hug. Know zero about film but have collected for ~38 yrs. Pre-Code love. Dead--but I'm not dead yet--language familiarity. Demi-horticulturalist. Car-free commuting since 1977. Will write Alt Text for food.

Shout out to Carole Lombard as Mae, sassy, tough and working a petrol pump in this outfit. With Pat O'Brien in Virtue (1932).

Since we are talking about pies...

MR. FLIP (1909) is often listed as having the first cinematic pie in the face but I found evidence of pies being deployed as early as 1901.

Quality holiday distraction: watch as many of the listed films as you can drum up.
Yeah, L'Atalante is mesmerizing. Available to rent in US on Prime.
