What material was used for the suit? Too soon for any sort of plastic, aluminium would have been very expensive.

ironically, the helm is the one piece of kit she isn’t wearing.
I see what you did there. 😉
"icy" was right there
That urge to drink vs the problems of going to the bathroom in that suit!
I'm surprised a 1927 handheld fan is so compact and modern looking. I wonder if it was cutting edge.
It was must pre-enshitification, I think, they later used plastic to make them look bigger to sell them with larger margins.
A lot of products got needlessly bigger bcs customers thought they were being "more".

Thanks for the movie tip!
It's well worth a watch if you're into film history.
I'm kind of not, but I'm kind of into film and kind of into history in general, so it might be cool. 😁
It's pretty cool.
While interesting as an important piece of early movie history, the movie itself isn't really anything great. The visuals are interesting, but the story is really badly structured and told.
Eh, I enjoyed it.
I also enjoyed the bizarre version that came out in the 80s.
I bet it is. There's a certain charm to older stuff though, IMO. I bet I won't come out empty-handed in the end. 😁
Try it for sure, it's for free on YouTube!
Oh shi—, thanks! 💜

Oooo! A new unimoji! Shiny!
