WCW: Actress Kay Thompson was born on this week in November 1909.
One of our preferred vintage musicals films of all-time since we were youngins. Has and forever will be 1957’s visionary “Funny Face.”
From the musing & mood boarding scenes and styles. One sequence that revels and excites our brain even some 70 years later! It’s miss Kay seen here singing “Think Pink” in this 1950s masterpiece.
Thompson started her Hollywood career in the 1940s then she was hired by MGM to be an arranger, vocal coach and composer. It was through this role that she formed a close friendship with Judy Garland, ultimately becoming Liza Minnelli’s godmother.
In 1958, Thompson became a best-selling author upon the release of the “Eloise” children’s book series.
