The Best Of Everything, 1959

                                     
Okay, the office sets on this one really made me think of Mad Men. It's about three secretaries working at a publishing company in Manhattan. Joan Crawford plays the the female editor with wormy eyebrows. It starts out light and cute, but in the end there's a little too much dramarama for me to find it enjoyable.

Black Widow, 1954






              
A few pretty shots from an otherwise forgettable movie. I liked the artist's studio.

The Courtship Of Eddie's Father, 1963













That office in the beginning looks very Mad Men, doesn't it? And Betty and Don had a very similar blue headboard in their bedroom. I also have a thing for vintage kitchens. Loved seeing some Pyrex in there.

Pal Joey, 1957





















Of course my favorite thing about this movie was the little westie, sometimes played by a cairn terrier. I also liked seeing how pretty San Francisco was in the 50's.
