Posted: 3/28/07 at 5:17pmThis thread just gave me a gigantic smile. I was trying to think of a movie to watch, so now I'm off to watch "Funny Face!"

I think the 'Winged Victory' looks a little pink in the lighting...

There's a brand new morning
Rising clear and sweet and free
There's a new day dawning
That belongs to you and me
Yes a new world's coming
The one we've had visions of
Coming in peace, coming in joy, coming in love

Like a seasonal allergy, the pink brownstone of Park Slope seems to pop up in conversations, blogs, or newspapers every couple months. The Daily News spoke to the owner, Bernie Henry, a 90 year old man who said he first painted the Garfield Place house in 1968 (the district was deemed a historic district in 1973) upon his wife's wishes. Henry said, "When I went to get the paint, I thought it was the same [shade], but it came out a little different. But what could I do? I bought $4,000 worth of paint." There's also a very cute quote from neighbor David Alquist, who doesn't mind the unusual color: "One mom told her kid, 'No, you can't eat it.' I think the kid thought it was frosting."
And because the Gap has used footage from Funny Face in their new skinny pant commercials and basically bastardizes Audrey Hepburn's hepcat dance, we urge you to see the movie yourself, especially Kay Thompson's showstopping "Think Pink" sequence.

The title of this post reminded me of the Barbie and the Rockers record I listened to all the time when I was little. LOL! It just happens that the song had the same title as the one being mentioned.
I know, totally random. LOL! But I actually should see Funny Face. Yes, I like Audrey Hepburn movies, but I have yet to see this one.

I have to confess to something nerdy and silly ...
I first saw "Funny Face" when I was a kid, and I completely loved it. The TV show "Rhoda" was popular at the time, and when Maggie Prescott sang "Think Pink," I couldn't understand why she wanted us to "Think Pink on the long, long, Rhoda head."
That's what my young brain first heard, and it made me laugh.
So ... to this day, when I watch the movie, I think of dear old Rhoda's long, long head every time I hear that song.
