#LoveStory

"(Where Do I Begin?) Love Story" is a #popular song published in 1970, with music by #FrancisLai and lyrics by #CarlSigman. The song was first introduced as an instrumental theme in the 1970 film #LoveStory after the film's distributor, #ParamountPictures, rejected the first set of lyrics that were written. #AndyWilliams eventually recorded the new lyrics and took the song to number nine on #Billboard magazine's #Hot100 and number one on their #EasyListeningChart.

I've started watching a Netflix show called Heartstopper. It is a nice little love story between queer characters.

I'm a sap for a good love story, especially a queer one.

I've watched all of the first season yesterday. I was feeling under the weather a bit, probably due to the mpox vaccine I got on Friday.

(I'm going to reply to this post with one thing I did not like in the first season.)

Die Gender-Studies-Doktorandin Dara erlebt einen Auftritt der schönen Sängerin Chiara. Sie ist sofort fasziniert von ihr, aber Chiara flieht nach dem ersten Kuss. Und dann erfährt Dara etwas Überraschendes über sie, das ihre ganze Welt auf den Kopf stellt ...

Mein neuer #romantisch|er #Liebesroman ist da! Erhältlich als E-Book (Kindle Edition: €5,99/KU) & Paperback @ Amazon!

'Get Emilie!'

This request, or something to that effect, was the final words spoken by Gustav Klimt before he passed from this world during the influenza epidemic of 1918. A call for his companian of over 20 years - a friendship that inspired them both but remained shrouded in mystery for the rest of the world

Klimt met Emilie Fröge when his brother married her sister in 1891. She was 18 years old and he was in his 30s but over the years their relationship matured into one that was intellectually and emotionally charged, rather than one based on the physical.

Emilie was a free spirited and talented seamstress creating the 'reform dress' - a loose fitted garment intended to free women’s bodies from the traditionally restrictive corset which hindered them from fully participating in society. Klimt for his oart would often paint his models wearing these designs..

Although Klimt wrote over 400 letters and cards to his companion there is no evidence of a more physically intimate relationship. Klimt never addresses her in romantic terms. Neither ever married but their bond as a couple was, without doubt, an inspiration for both.

Rudolph Nureyev was an admirer of Erik Bruhn, the celebrated Danish dancer whose performances he had seen on tape when the Dane had performed in Russia with the American Ballet Theatre. After Nureyev defected to the West in 1961 the two met, and although stylistically the two dancers were very different, offstage they became a couple and remained together for 25 years, until Bruhn's death in 1986. Nureyev considered Bruhn the great love of his life.
