Jacqueline

At 12 years old, the girl saw the movie "La Dolce Vida." Stuck in her unconsciousness: the party scene where the glamorous, sensual party woman sobbed (so powerful in Italian vernacular)as she looked at her aging reflection in the ornate, full length mirror. Her kohl-lined eyes melted into pathetic streaks down chiseled cheek bones. Fifty years later the girl understood the woman's grief.
