Snowdon on Stage: With a Personal View of the British Theatre 1954-1996

Description

One of my favorite photography portrait books, by an iconnic photographer. I've had this for years and years and look on it often. From Amazon: "Among the many arresting images in this handsome volume are portraits of Ralph Richardson, Alec Guinness, John Gielgud, Vanessa Redgrave, and Noël Coward. There are portraits, too, of contemporary stars, including Jeremy Irons, Natasha Richardson, Emma Thompson, Jude Law, and Rupert Everett."

Vanity Fair Magazine

Description

It's pretentious, it's glossy, and it's so Hollywood. You gotta get the Hollywood issue every year for a fab dose of Who's Who. But besides that, every issue is packed with gossip and scandal all guised as being high-brow and elitiest. I love it. Plus the photo spreads are AMAZING.

Valley of the Dolls (Special Edition)

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Valley of the Dolls is one of the greatest movies EVER! It's filled with drama, cat-fighting, camp, drugs, sex, rock and roll - plus...HELLO...Sharon Tate, Patty Duke, Barbara Perkins and Susan Hayword. They just don't make 'em like this anymore. It's surreal and gritty at the same time - and filmed in that super-fabulous 1967 retro cool genre. Watch and love. And then read the original novel by Jacqueline Susann. It's even steamier than the movie.

pink's hot dogs

3 people recommended this item

Description

I'm willing to wager that just about everyone who has ever been nominated for an Academy Award has stood in line (be it 11am or 2am) for a Pink's Hot Dog. This modest hot dog stand on La Brea is about as vintage Hollywood as the sign itself.

Runyon Canyon

Description

Of course there is an "it" place to be outside in Hollywood, and that's Runyun Canyon. Despite the fact that you'll get a helluva workout, it's super fun to people and dog watch as you trek the trails. (via diannelawrence)
