Curio: Happy Birthday Susan

Alexa here.  I have an abiding love for Susan Sarandon, who turns 65 today. It's great to see her going strong, supporting Wall Street protesters and getting Sister Helen Prejean to preside over her daughter's wedding.  While I'm still waiting to find some killer indie poster designs of my favorite Susan films (The Hunger, White Palace), here are some fun curios from around the internet celebrating the beauty with the planet-sized eyes.

Janet and Brad paper dolls, available here.

One of the bravest, coolest, sexiest actress ever. I love you, Susan, happy birthday.

What I like best about her is that she leads all who are willing to take notice of her example. Her intelligence and sexuality are partners-- not just parts of her. I said I wanted to be more like her-- but unfortunately I don't like people which puts me in the Dunaway, Lange, Dennis category.

Her funeral tap dance scene in Elizabethtown was perfection...so worthy of an Oscar nom..and yet no buzz at the time.
