It’s tough to find romance – especially nowadays. How about a classic romantic tragedy with Carmen Jones?

Love this film. Had to nab it on Blu-ray at last. 💕🎞️📀

Dorothy Dandridge was nominated for an Oscar for “Best Actress” for her titular role in “Carmen Jones”. She was the first Black American woman to be nominated for this award. Unfortunately, she lost to Grace Kelly in “The Country Girl”

There’s no way to answer this question without offending one demographic or providing a narrative for the other.

His response is similar to Halle Berry turning down playing Aretha Franklin because she “couldn’t sing” #dorothydandridge. The key word in acting is 🗣️ act.
Thank god. Now the the other man don’t gotta walk around tasting s curl formula on his lips all day.
Terrence Howard reveals he turned down starring in a Marvin Gaye biopic after learning about Gaye’s sexuality:

“If I kissed some man, I would cut my lips off.”

Wonderful #BFI lineup for #DorothyDandridge, including a film I'm vocal about when discussing Ms. Dandridge, MÁLAGA (1960), a film that I feel shows her range, BRIGHT ROAD (1953), and two films I consider worth watching: ISLAND IN THE SUN (1957) + Halle Berry in INTRODUCING DOROTHY DANDRIDGE (1999).

And now . . . My official favorite #Cannes photoshoot of #DorothyDandridge

I stumbled upon these several years ago, in awe of its simplicity and beauty. But . . . of course. It's Dorothy Dandridge. Simply beautiful. These images remain fresh and new.

A moment with Dandridge in Cannes. A thread.

There is a terrible piece of #AI art circulating FB purporting to be "Josephine, Billie and Dorothy" and I am now that person pointing out it's not. I won't link it but here are true #icons #josephinebaker #billieholiday and #dorothydandridge.

"The range between the two parts suggests that she is one of the outstanding dramatic actresses of the screen."

—Newsweek, on #DorothyDandridge

(Referencing Dorothy's acting range from BRIGHT ROAD (1953) to CARMEN JONES (1954).)

Dorothy Dandridge as Carmen Jones is such an exciting performance to watch it immediately upsets how Hollywood didn't allow Dandridge to prove herself in similar roles following this legendary turn. While her vocals are dubbed she performs it all physically so well.
