@danadelany.bsky.social You might not be that into Delon anymore, but I wanted to share this interview with you anyway (turn the subs on). I thought you’d enjoy it, and also because it’s really special to me - it was filmed on the day I got lucky enough to meet AD 🖤 Full video: youtu.be/V1vzJtnwTPQ

We say goodbye to international film icon, Brigitte Bardot. One of the greatest screen sirens of the 20th century, she mesmerized audiences in films such as CONTEMPT ('63) and later became a fierce animal rights activist. Our thoughts are with her family and friends.

RIP Brigitte Bardot, age 91. Farewell, beautiful.

It's very tedious to read only negative comments about Brigitte Bardot this morning. She wasn't crafting policy or leading a movement... so while I dislike her opinions, I prefer to remember the icon who changed everything.

RIP #BrigitteBardot 🕊️🖤

@danadelany.bsky.social Just yesterday I was rewatching this video of Bardot and Delon. Today I wake up to the sad news that BB is gone. 2025 has been a tough year, ending with the loss of another icon. PS. One day the press will celebrate talent, not political views. Not today. youtu.be/XHvJ9Yuu4SM

The sublime Sylvia Sidney. I devoured every word. Only wish they let her talk more about Dorothy Arzner. If you haven’t see Sidney and “Freddie” March in Merrily We Go to Hell, get on it!

It's cold out there today. Kitty wants cassoulet. #Caturday

This Santa was on the naughty list. Errol Flynn, Eleanor Parker and Lucille Watson in NEVER SAY GOODBYE ('46).

Birthday boy Humphrey Bogart hopes your Christmas is the stuff that dreams are made of.

@danadelany.bsky.social This instantly made me think of you. I can easily imagine similar footage of little Dana. I’ve always been curious about when Santa stopped feeling real for you (I’m guessing your brother was involved). Merry Christmas again, Dana! 🎄

Remembering Ava Gardner on her birthday 🎂 📷 Luis Lemus for Vogue "I was lazy. I would have been a hell of a lot better actress had I taken it more seriously. I never had the proper respect for acting. Quite often, I learned my lines on the way to the studio."

Time to put up the tree

@danadelany.bsky.social Morning! I was surprised not to see you among Sir Tom Jones’s followers on Instagram! Maybe you missed his page… 😏Definitely check it out, there’s a lot of interesting stuff! 🎶 Merry Christmas! 💋🎄 www.instagram.com/realsirtomjo...

TCM does it better than anyone. Sadly, every year there are more of my friends. 🖤

@danadelany.bsky.social Beautiful tribute as always from TCM 🖤

@danadelany.bsky.social You're simply the best 💜

@danadelany.bsky.social Good morning, Queen of the Ranch. Did you know there’s a mare in Germany named… Dana Delany? No joke (here’s the page on instagram www.instagram.com/bruns_stamp_... ) Just look at her - all beauty and grace. Had to share.

@danadelany.bsky.social Paramount basically crashed Netflix’s party and raised the stakes.

What is going to happen to TCM? That’s what I want to know @netflix.com.

In a week of economic chaos, something amazing happened: Gustav Klimt’s Portrait of Elisabeth Lederer sold for $236.4M. This masterpiece, crafted between 1914 and 1916, survived Nazi looting and a major fire. It also reveals something about what we value. 🧵👇 #artbots #klimt

@danadelany.bsky.social So sad news

@danadelany.bsky.social Good morning 🦝

Always love a Peter Weller interview pca.st/episode/4826...

@danadelany.bsky.social Just in case you don’t have it. I love this! I hope that in 30 years I’ll get to have a picture like this too - with my favorite actress after her performance ❤️

@danadelany.bsky.social Today is the day 🎂 My friend (she’s a psychotherapist and Pisces 🤪) wanted to get into film noir and asked me where to start. I told her to watch “In a Lonely Place”. She ended up loving it and said it’s a very sad but very beautiful story.

Thankful.
