When Gilda premiered, the press round-up
asked Rita just what kept her gown up
"Two very good reasons, "
she said, "I would squeeze in,
and both were strategic'lly bound up."
Rita Hayworth was liquid satin in Gilda (Charles Vidor, 1946).
We started our centennial tribute to Vincent Price on May 17, 2011, here. This monster marathon was our part in the annual Countdown to Halloween. It crawled along until it breathed its last on March 17, 2012.

In those black satin drop-dead pajamas
she's the last of the redheaded mommas
That inky foundation's
a slinky sensation
No ifs, ands or buts, just some commas!
and two points of exclamation!!
Of course!!
