Rule 5 Sunday: Claudia Cardinale

Claudia Cardinale, the glorious Tunisian/Italian actress who featured in a lot of spaghetti westerns, first came to my attention in perhaps the greatest of those not starring Clint Eastwood: Once Upon A Time In The West, where she played a beautiful widow beset by the eeeeevil Henry Fonda. More appropriately, she played the Algerian lover of Anthony Quinn’s Colonel Raspeguy in Lost Command, a mid-sixties film based on Pierre Larteguy’s famous novel The Centurions, which follows a group of French Army officers from Dien Bien Phu to the Battle of Algiers. Here’s Cardinale’s Aisha with her colonel.

The beginning of a tragic relationship.

On a far more cheerful note (and if you’ve read the book, you know exactly what I mean), Ninety Miles From Tyranny serves up something extra this week with Hot Pick of the Late Night, 90 Miles Mystery Box Episode 699, Morning Mistress, Girls With Guns, and the bonus 90 Miles Mystery Video – Nyctophilia #2. At Animal Magnetism, it’s Rule 5 UFO Kookery News and the Saturday Gingermageddon (the 250th!), while Bacon Time serves up Larsa Pippen.

This week, EBL brings us rats, National Chicken Wing Day, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, Marianne Williamson, Harriet Tubman, Tulsi vs. Kamala, National Water Balloon Day, and Darleen Love.

A View From The Beach presents Little Miss Starlight – Erin Moriarty, “And Then He Kissed Me”, I Hope It Was At Least High End Luggage, Katy Loses Plagiarism Suit, “Backwater Blues”, A Shot of Salvation for Chesapeake Logperch, Blue Monday, Still Too Much Russiagate, Making Lemonade and Outlaw Artist Uses 225,000 Plastic Straws.

Proof Positive’s Friday Night Babe is Mariska Hargitay and his Vintage Babe is Jayne Mansfield. At Dustbury, it’s Birgitta Haukdal and Nadia Ali.

Thanks to everyone for all the luscious linkagery!
