“Goddess of beauty, you died, all in a glow of roses,”— Alexander Blok, tr. by Boris Jakim, from Poems of Sophia; “Ante Lucem,”
Allow me.
When I marry you tomorrow, it will be as an ordinary woman. And I will promise to love, honour and obey you. Obey me? But I am your subject. You will be my husband. And you, Liebes, will be my wife.
North by Northwest (1959) dir. Alfred Hitchcock

Marlene Dietrich in Blonde Venus (1932) dir. Josef von Sternberg
