Blake Lively golden beauty in New York

A good spirited Blake Lively was very fashionable in Gucci at Sprinkles bakery in New York City last week. She helped design and make her own signature "S'mores" cupcakes, which will be available at Sprinkles starting January, to help raise money for Oxfam's Somalia famine disaster fund. The "Gossip Girl" star wore a Gucci Resort 2012 ensemble for the charitable occasion. A gold leather pleated skirt was paired with a white satin sheer blouse with a coordinated gold floral accent at the neck. The only thing sexier than Blake Lively baking cupcakes for charity is Blake Lively in a short skirt showing some legs for charity. She looked adorable in the gold lame skirt, sheet white blouse. She added green Brian Atwood 'Maniac' pumps... And a sleek ponytail and natural makeup provided the finishing touches to her look. Blake is truly golden in these photos...

Dyanne Thorne Week: A Quick Look Back

Looking back at Ms Thorne, it is not hard for me to figure out why she is so appealing. Of course she has a really great, if somewhat enhanced, body. That will carry you a bit, but you need more. I think Dyanne was an old school Hollywood actress born a bit late. Sure, she likely would have wound up in B-Movies anyway, but so was Mamie van Doren. She's not the greatest actress in the world, but has a good range, in a classic Hollywood sense. These two pics are kind of the extremes of her roles:

Ilsa at her low-tech perversion high point.


Dyanne as a cupie-doll prostitute.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed seeing a bit of Ms Thorne, with and without her jackboots. If you do watch the DVDs, listen to the commentary. Dyanne is pretty funny on them, and not bitter about how good/bad the Ilsa films were for her career.

I may lay off the theme weeks until the first week of February, in hopes of getting some better material together. Here are my two immediate ideas; Pam Grier blaxploitation week, or Women in Prison week (which would have some Pam Grier as well). Probably another Russ Meyer week later in the year. Sybil Danning might find her way to the early Spring. Any thoughts?

Dyanne Thorne Week: Ilsa the Wicked Warden

OK. Saved the sickest for last. Ilsa the Wicked Warden is a more true-to-form Women in Prison movie than the others (though they count in many ways). Here, Ilsa is the, you guessed it, warden of a women's prison, and yes, she is is wicked. Ilsa is a sadistic weirdo who films her torture sessions, medical experiments, and arranged rape parties, then sells them to the snuff-film set in town. Some pictures below, but more are in my Flickr IlsaDyanne Thorne set here.

Wicked Warden is a Jess Franco movie, and arguably the most Sadean of the films.There is one point where the tough prisoner has the new fish clean her up after a dump by tossing the salad.

The obligatory bathing scene.


"What was that noise?"


They always forget their panties before a prison break...


The prison bulls are purdy!

First foot fetish scene for Ilsa?

Dyanne Thorne Week: Wham Bam Thank You Spaceman

Wham Bam Thank You Spaceman was released in 1975. It is an insipid story about two aliens who arrive on Earth to learn about human sexuality. To give them something to write jokes about, the aliens' penises are where their tongues should be, and vice-versa.Thorne was included to play a prostitute in two scenes. Thorne says she was not properly clued in to what was expected of her, and is not proud of the role. I think she's pretty funny, and it is the high point of an otherwise dismal movie.

Dyanne Thorne Week: Sin in the Suburbs (1964)

A young Dyanne Thorne (credit as Lahna Monroe) is the secondary villain in this tale of suburban depravity from Joe Sarno. She is a little hard to pick out, as she has dark hair and apparently has had a nose job. She plays Yvette Talman, who works with her "brother" Louis (W.B. Parker) to fleece the dirty housewives in their quaint suburban town by starting an Eyes Wide Shut styled sex/swing club (it is highly likely that Kubrick was familiar with this film).

While Thorne is not the star, she is used to set the tone right away. The film opens with a collections agent arriving at her house to demand full payment for some furniture. He is greeted by Yvette in a negligee with some ready excuses. When she inquires as to any other way to settle matters, that furniture is as good as paid for! More after the pictures.

We need to discuss your bill.


I just don't have the money now. My brother's out of work...


Maybe we can work something out?

Louis is likely not her brother, but I don't think it was made clear, which only adds to the perversity quotient. He comes up with the idea of a sex club when he finds out what a bunch of horn-dogs the locals are. We have already seen how the housewives kiss their husbands goodbye, then let deliveryman-types in for a bit of slap-and-tickle. The heroine, Geraldine Lewis (Audrey Campbell), even makes a play for her daughter's boyfriend. Seems the only way a guy can get laid in this town is to not get on the train in the morning. But all that is about to change.

At the sex club, everyone gets masks. No one knows who is who. Stop paying your club dues though, and the Lewis and Yvette might let your name slip, understand? Eventually, everything goes to hell. The moral strain leads to alcoholism, near divorce, fighting amongst friends, and ultimately the near fruition of a masked threesome between a man, his wife, and his daughter (you gotta make sure you know who your random sex partner will not be!).
