fflo: (edsel behind chain link)



I had this postcard up in my dorm room my junior or senior year.  I remember thinking that was a form of adult life that was appealing to me---a rare imagining for young [personal profile] fflo (tho I had something similar a few years later, looking at a big family-picnic scene in Fried Green Tomatoes, long shots at the house with the wrap-around porch).  I didn't yet pick up on the elite white feel of the family pictured (maybe cuz I was at a liberal arts college with a lot of elite white New Englanders); I was mostly absorbed by the newspaper they were all into, and their many people present thing.  It's called Sunday New York Times, and was one of a number of very-large-print photos by Tiny Barney.  So funny maybe that I had it on a postcard on my wall.  Sort of the opposite of how she wanted me to be looking at it.
