“The first thing I ever thought of when I thought of Buffy , the movie, was the little...blonde girl who goes into a dark alley and gets killed, in every horror movie. The idea of Buffy was to subvert that idea, that image, and create someone who was a hero where she had always been a victim. That element of surprise ... genre-busting is very much at the heart of both the movie and the series.” FirstsHeartLittlesIdeasGirlDarkHeroHorrorElementsVictimSeriesSurpriseGenreBlondeAlleysElement Of SurpriseBustingDark AlleysBlonde Girl Author:Joss Whedon
“The Girl of the Period, sauntering before one down Broadway, is one panorama of awful surprises from top to toe. Her clothes characterize her. She never characterizes her clothes. She is upholstered, not ornamented. She is bundled, not draped. She is puckered, not folded. She struts, she does not sweep. She has not one of the attributes of nature nor of proper art. She neither soothes the eye like a flower, nor pleases it like a picture. She wearies it like a kaleidoscope. She is a meaningless dazzle of broken effects.” DoeArtEyeGirlEffectsFashionYouthFlowerBrokenPeriodsPleaseClothesSurpriseAwfulAttributesMeaninglessToesBroadwaySaunteringDazzleKaleidoscopePanorama Author:Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward
