If anyone else, perchance, wanted copies feel free to *PM* me {god, that almost sounds naughty...snicker}.  ;)

Yes my friends, that's a riding crop, not a cane. It's not Pepe's per say, but I could certainly imagine her using it this way or that [take THAT whatever way you will]     ;D

Hiya,

I think I mentioned this at the very tippy-top of the thread... If I didn't, my apologies.   8)

These screen captures were taken from the 1962 movie, "Satan In High Heels" (SIHH for short ;)).  Grayson plays Pepe: a chic, sophisticated and headstrong night club manager (Grayson is THE highlight of this film. Great close-ups, jazzy music; and Her hair, clothes, and dialogue are fantastic!). In between balancing the books and schedules, she acts as peacekeeper and confidant for the other characters, and cracks the proverbial whip at rehersals.  Pepe spends much of the film training Meg Miles character, Stacey, for a feature number at the club's season opener. Although taming the tramp seemed to be a futile effort at times, Pepe manages to train her enough to belt out a campy tune while dressed in a leather ensemble, complete with accessories (ie. riding crop).  :D

Did I miss anything, graysonfiles...Or did I say too much?   :-X   ;)  ;D

Tired wench,

Heather

Unfortunately, no (sigh).  :(

However  [Putting on my tie-dyed dunce cap], I'm not as familiar with PC's (and windows operating system) as I am with Apple/Macs. :-
I could do a more thorough search on the net, but so far I haven't found anything that doesn't cost some change ($$). For example, One site I found was: http://www.macromedia.com/software/roboscreencapture/

The product is Macromedia RoboScreenCapture v2. The requirements are (got this from the site ;)):
* Intel Pentium II 200MHz or higher
* Windows XP, ME, 2000, 98se, NT 4.0
* 128 MB RAM
* 40 MB of available disk space

They offer a 7 day free trial, and after that the software costs $34 for the full package.

If anyone else knows of software for capturing DVD stills, please let our Window-inclined friends in on what's up...  ;)   Thanks!

Hugs,

Heather

p.s. Guess what...I got one last capture to share. By the way - MB dear, I'm not taking up all your bandwidth, am I? You can whip me with a wet noodle if I am... (LOL).

Anyway - This is the part of SIHH when Pepe hands Stacey the proper accessory. Now, in my warped mind, Pepe has a few of these and other...assorted necessities back in her apartment. Just in case. ;D And if you dig further into my demented notions, said accessories help Judith and Pepe bring an element of discipline in their relationship... [sound of whip cracking in the background].  Or, let's say one day Julia takes things into her own hands and surprises Barnabas with.....oh forget it. LOL
Please don't zap me...  ::)   :P  ;)  ;D




Grayson's hair looks good even at this angle, doesn't it?  :-*

Not at all. You've upload the captures to your own Web space, so it's your own bandwidth that you're using.  ;)  So far as I'm I'm concerned, by all means keep capturing and posting because everything you've shared so far has been fantastic. 

As for a free Windows equivalent of DVD Capture, I'm not sure I know of one either. (The capturing software that I use either came with my DVD drive, my video card, or with Linux.) However, when it comes to Windows, don't assume that just because you have the software that you can get captures from any DVD because many DVDs are encoded so that they'll deactivate your software's abilty to take captures. (However, that encoding doesn't prevent captures with Linux software.  8))

Tom Jennings knew that neck... intimately. He didn't call her "Jooooooolia" for her taste in tweed.
