MAGIC CITY, MIAMI'S GLAMOUR OF THE 1950s!

Taking inspiration from old Vogue and Vanity Fair magazines, original Dior couture pieces from mid-50s and other Men's Apparel magazines, costume designer Carol Ramsey and the producers of Magic City, have the potential to be the next 'Pan Am', 'Mad Men' or 'Boardwalk Empire'. (Just think of it as Mad Men meets the Mob in Miami or a Miami Boardwalk Empire after the Prohibition Era)


" It’s important in shows like this to stay in the period. And once you’re grounded, you can take liberties." Carol Ramsey


Briefly Magic City is the tale of hotel owner Ike Evans who builds one of the largest mid century modern structures in the city...
the rest is up to you watching it!

WHAT'S MY LINE?/BORN IN THE WRONG ERA PT.2!

What's My Line? Was a panel game show which originally ran in the United States in the 50s and 60s, with several international versions and subsequent U.S. revivals. The game tasked celebrity panelists with questioning contestants in order to determine their occupations.
JUST BRILLIANT! Another confirmation that I was definitely born in the wrong era!

Mystery guests have included: Frank Sinatra, Alfred Hitchcock, Yves Saint Laurent, Muhammad Ali, Paul Newman, Barbra Streisand , Nat King Cole, Louis Armstrong, Salvador DaliColonel Sanders, Hugh Hefner, Sean Connery, Eleanor Roosevelt, Woody AllenDuke Ellington or Elizabeth Taylor !

Check out three of my favourite special guests (it was quite hard to choose just three, so you should watch them all): Salvador Dali,Yves Saint Laurent & Louis 'Satchmo' Armstrong (Muhammad Ali and Nat King Cole are quite funny as well!)

Host nods 'No'
Dali says 'Yes'
SURREAL!
