#InterviewWithTheVampire 🩸
I need to party with the IWTV writer’s room. Like this is FUN
since the other place is down, I’m singing the praises of Mickey 17 here as well. The script is a little nutty and all over the place but I had FUN with it because at its core is this really compelling love story. That’s the engine of this film.
okay diva
In closing:
Yes, it’s not that deep.
Yes, I’m overthinking this.
And her look could’ve been going for a contemporary take on the 60s look and if that’s the case, throw this thread out lol
Again, the work of the hair and makeup teams on the film is still great overall!
With all that being said, I think this look from the trailer is great with the addition of the scarf as that would’ve been on trend, which means we could see more looks that signal 60s. I think a heavier curl and little more lift would make it perfect.
I think when thinking about period piece hair, we have to think about how it would’ve been achieved. In the 60s, roller sets or pin curls were it. Like magazines would regularly feature roller set patterns for specific hairstyles that could be done at home.
Even with her hair a little longer, there’s room to have volume with a curl. Another thing here is curls versus waves, as waves read a little bit more contemporary
The name of the game with 60s hair is volume. Big short hair. Big long hair. Just big hair. So she would’ve loved a strong curl or flip at the bottom with a little bit of volume at the top.
If we’re pulling from the comics, a slightly longer bubble cut with flipped ends would be perfect. It’s chic and glamorous while still being practical for being a superhero.
Getting the obvious of the way. Yes, this is “retro futuristic” and they could not be from “this universe.” However, the rest of the characters do adhere to aesthetics based in the 60s of this universe, so I’m operating under that assumption.
Let’s set the table.
The film takes place in the (early?) 60s, similar to the start of the comics. This is what her hair looks like in the trailer. I assume there’s a time jump in the movie because her hair is different lengths, but she maintains shoulder length loose waves (could also be curls).
(Disclaimer disclaimer: this is in no way intend to demean the world of the hair and makeup teams on the film. They are the professionals who know the direction of the movie and I’m just a random person lol)
Did this thread #overthere but here’s what I thought Sue Storm’s hair would look like.
(disclaimer: this is just going off the first teaser and is subject to change with the release of the film.)
I’ve taken some time away from Culture Kitsch, but I’ve itching to come back. In this video, I explored the history and culture that surrounds Peanuts and Snoopy and why Gen Z, especially, has taken such a fondness to them.
We’re so fucking back.

Wicked, you are loved deeply by me.
The lighting in Wicked, you are hated deeply by me.
Oh?
Still haven’t watched the finale of Arcane because I feel like I’m going to be pissed off.
I wrote about the expensive and endless Wicked (and Barbie) marketing and how it's often prioritized a white, upper-class consumer — and how this rising Hollywood standard impacts small and independent films that often center talent of color. www.huffpost.com/entry/wicked...
I’ve seen a lot of reactions to some people having criticisms of a certain movie and I’m like “if you love it, why care if someone has critique?”
I’ve said that some of y’all aren’t real haters because you require constant reaffirming of your hater status, the same goes for the lovers. Y’all as lovers of something are too quickly swayed. Only an act of God could sway me from my loves. One person hating something I like does not move me.
There’s something to be said that the package, that contains lights that I bought to help with my seasonal affective disorder, has been lost. There’s a beautiful irony there. Or the universal is just saying, “work it out, diva.”
Seeing Wicked on Tuesday. I technically was on the Gladiator II side of the Glicked campaign but Galinda and Elphie got my money first.
