PHOTOS OF THE DAY: CLASSIC PATRIOTIC HOLLYWOOD

What present Hollywood is missing in its stars is a sense of patriotism. Classic Hollywood really rallied about the country, especially during World War II. On this 4th of July, I thought I would take a look at some of the patriotic pictures from classic Hollywood...

Ava Gardner (1922-1990)

Colleen Moore (1899-1988)

Cyd Charisse (1922-2008)

Veronica Lake (1922-1973)

PHOTOS OF THE DAY: SILENT MOVIE ACTRESSES

There are something about the pictures of silent screen actresses that make them so mysterious and alluring. Maybe it is because the public could not hear them talk that made them so great. Either way, I wish more people would realize that some of the silent movie actresses were truly great. Some did not make the transfer to the talkies, but they all were legends in their own way...
