Have you ever watched an Italian film from the 1960’s and you are loving the aesthetics, the handsome men, gorgeous woman and then the hero slaps the leading lady and they fall into a loving passion? Granted I love older films and wish I knew how to do my make up like them and cinch my waist with those cute belts. I see a parallel in motherhood here, especially with the relationship of mother to son. Not all the movies are overly rough. This one, while comic, does demonstrate the different sides of the coin of love.
Whether it’s Marcello Mastroianni or a cherubic toddler, the road of love is not a smooth one.
You are hilarious!
How did you do that?
Rex is magnificent.
Fantastico! I absolutely LOVE this!
A masterpiece! Vell done.
You’ve missed your calling and your son’s a start. Loved it! (And as the mother of 2 sons – so true!!)
Thanks! I really love this one.

Magnifico! Such is the tragic beauty of deep love…
…Umm…Want old Hollywood makeup? YOUTUBE!! Tutorials abound, lady! 🙂
well, I really see Rex as the film star.
Daphne, hilarious concept, excellently executed! Love the vintage film quality too…very Sophia Loren (this is definitely one of those vids, though, that you know Rex will show his first girlfriend and joke “mom didn’t get out much.”) 🙂
I kid because I love.
and he would be right! 😉
Oh my gosh, that was FANTASTIC.
Oh, why do I have to work?? And miss some of your posts???
THIS WAS DA BOMB, DAPH!
Definitely a coolio next year.
