RIP, Irene Papas (3rd September 1929 – 14th September 2022)
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
Stunning creature. She is new to me too.
ReplyDeletePerhaps not one of the most famous names of the lot - but she did star in a few blockbuster movies such as The Guns of Navarone, and even Captain Corelli's Mandolin. And she was beautiful, to the end. Jx
DeleteAnd she could act.
DeleteIndeed she could! Jx
DeleteGorgeous. Great photo.
ReplyDeleteIt is an impressive photo, indeed. Jx
DeleteShe was very good in 'The Guns of Navarone' and a strikingly good looking woman.
ReplyDeleteAgreed on both counts! Jx
