She objects…

…to being told when to nap.

And no, I’m not letting that thing, whatever it is, out of her little pen. I think it might be a small, nippy demon.

Movie Review: The Spiral Staircase (1946)

This is a taut noir-horror-thriller hybrid about a serial killer who targets women with disabilities, and a mute woman’s efforts to avoid becoming the next victim. It’s very well shot, and has an ever-escalating feeling of claustrophobia and tension. I’m not a fan of Dorothy McGuire, but she’s quite good in a role that limits her to non-verbal communication.

Nosey little thing.

Cutie pie, bringer of chaos. A great many of the plants you see in these images will be gone shortly, for the protection of one who puts *everything* in her mouth.
