Post challenge: WOW! I'm so happy to be in the top 10! This shot was taken in my bathroom, during my most recent shoot with Sarah. Sarah didn't know I was shooting her, which makes it all the more like a real movie scene. I tried to find a movie that would make sense, and because she looked like Liz, that wasn't extremely difficult. I've never actually seen the movie. : )
And a big thank you to Posthumous for my RED - it's an honor!!

this was my highest score (9) along with the DQ-ed Dark Knight. Excellent, natural shot evoking the spirit of movies from the golden era of 50's and 60's. JJ is right, the only thing which I would change is to re-crop it. There are very few movies shot in portrait format :)
Wrote a longer comment on this and now I've somehow lost it in looking back over my favourite entries before voting ends. You almost ended up with just a full stop for a comment! It's a very convincing 'classical' photograph in style, and very well done too. Beautiful. Thank you.
Ribbon. Looks like a genuine movie still... or maybe it is? I love the black colors, the strong white on her face and shoulder... and the mirror in the back completes the scene. 10 from me.
