Gay rights backers file 3 lawsuits challenging Prop. 8

Lawyers for same-sex couples argue that the anti-gay marriage measure is an illegal constitutional revision
…
Lawyers for same-sex couples argued that the anti-gay-marriage measure was an illegal constitutional revision -- not a more limited amendment, as backers maintained -- because it fundamentally altered the guarantee of equal protection. A constitutional revision, unlike an amendment, must be approved by the Legislature before going to voters.
…
The first action was filed by the ACLU, the National Center for Lesbian Rights and Lambda Legal. Santa Clara County and the cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles also sued, and Los Angeles lawyer Gloria Allred filed a third suit on behalf of a married lesbian couple.

All the lawsuits cited the constitutional revision argument, and two of them asked the court to block Proposition 8 from taking effect while the legal cases were pending.

My Mother had a beautiful full-length beaver coat.

She was not uncomfortable wearing fur - of course her father was a Furrier

TOD:

I thought "Pleasantville" was extremely well done for what it was and achieved the proper moods.

B&W: "Brief Encounter" (those deep blacks and wonderful silver whites) "Sunrise" "Citizen Kane"

Most things Coppola did -- who was it that he used? Laszlo Kovacks!

"Enchanted April" "Funny Face" (especially if you see a good print where the colors are not washed out)

TOD continued:

"Sound of Music"
"Fanny"
"Meet Me in St. Louis"

Psycho.

Of course, it's really the cinematographer paired with whoever is doing the lighting that creates the best films, visually. As usual with anything cinematic, teamwork is the key.
