Perhaps this was one of the reasons that Richard Thorpe was fired. The part of Dorothy required someone who could play the role with a sense of childish innocence and naivety. Judy Garland was the best option for the job, but even she had to make herself more girlish to be convincing in the role, strapping her breasts down and wearing clothes designed to hide her curves. She was a 16-year-old playing age 12.
For some reason, during early filming, someone thought it would be appropriate to make Garland wear a blonde wig and apply thick make up to her, completely canceling out the actor's own attempts to make herself look younger. Fortunately, someone realized this quite quickly, and decided that she'd be better with her own hair, and a more natural appearance. The scenes were re-shot, although photos like this one remain as evidence that it happened.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
