Art-deco,
sombreritos cloche, larguisimos collares, rostros aniñados y pechos
planos; los cinturones, apoyados sobre las caderas: era la famosa silueta
'Charleston',
de polleras a las rodillas o apenas debajo
Los
años locos de la decada del 20 vieron morir prejuicios y aparecer
otros, tambien efimeros, en materia de moda, porque su caracteristica,
precisamente, es la poca durabilidad: Todo cansa, todo se renueva, todo
vuelve, en un juego recurrente...

Douglas
Fairbanks Cocktail
Ingredients
Method
Shake and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with orange
and lemon peel.
Notes
A name so good they used it twice. Douglas (the father) appeared in
40 films including The Mark of Zorro (1920), and was famously
married to actress Mary Pickford. He moved into production as a founder
member of the United Artists studio (along with Charlie Chaplin, Mary
Pickford and DW Griffith), and was the first president of the Academy
of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the body which awards the Oscars.
He died in 1939.
Douglas
Jr (the son) followed in his father's footsteps, engaging in swashbuckling
swordplay in movies such as The Prisoner of Zenda (1937) and
Gunga Din(1939), and making a megastar marriage to Joan Crawford.
He died in May 2000.
