First things first, hey I'm Lauren.
23 . female . Canadian . home-body
I collect books, among other things.
Coffee connoisseur, serious sci-fi nut & a complete and utter wino.

I'm a forth year Film major with a minor in English Lit. I'm completely fascinated with Dystopian lit/film. I am, at my core, a knowledge collector of sorts.

I think one of the hardest things to do is write about oneself. I could go on for pages detailing my likes and dislikes, all the while asserting this overly self-gratifying, omniscient point of view. I could, in a way force myself upon you, begging for the attention of a complete stranger. Or I could let this page speak for itself; in hopes that by grouping small details and choice inspirations, I could, in time, define myself.

I suggest quiet frequently, but I also hope to be suggestED to things. ;)
Thanks for visiting. xx

The 2008 Hollywood Portfolio: Hitchcock Classics Dial M for Murder, 1954 Charlize Theron. Photograph by Norman Jean Roy. The scene in which Charles Alexander Swann (Dawson) attempts to strangle Margot Mary Wendice (Kelly), only to be himself stabbed with a pair of scissors, caused Hitchcock great anxiety. Although the entire film was shot in just 36 days, this single scene required a full week of rehearsals and multiple takes to get the choreography and timing right. After one failed take, Hitchcock complainded, “There wasn’t enough gleam to the scissors, and a murder without gleaming scissors is like asparagus without the hollandaise sauce—tasteless.” The original still: Anthony Dawson and Grace Kelly. Dawson makes the difference…

Dawson makes the difference…
