I’m pretty sure the OP’s talking about Mad Men. You can’t search on the title as both words are two short, but for the last thread of season 2 I used a hyphen in the title, Mad-Men. The search function will let you search for it. For older threads try searching for “Peggy Olsen”.
I was gonna hit the Report button and ask a Mod to fix the title, but then we’d miss all these good jokes.
January Jones was in The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (just watched it yesterday). I looked for similarities in the two characters. The wife in Burials was quicker to make a decision about her marriage – she was like the S2 Betty. But they both smoke a cigarette the same – like none of the icky stuff is getting into their bodies. I think it’s because Jones has such a pristine look, like nothing foul would dare affect her.
I’d like to see Jones smile big sometime, or let go with a big ol’ belly laugh. How are you going to get character lines if your facial muscles never move?
I saw a picture of her and ‘Joan’ and ‘Peggy’ in a magazine, wearing current style dresses, hairstyles, and makeup. Amazing the difference between now and then. The ladies look 10 years younger in modern dress.
salinqmind, I haven’t seen any photos but I saw them at the wrap party after S1 and you’re right, the difference was amazing – especially Joan.
I can’t find the photo now, but somewhere (maybe on the DVD’s) there’s a photo of the women of Deadwood out of costume. Molly Parker (Alma) in blue jeans!
