Inside Molly Thatcher's Apartment (The Wheeler Dealers)
Wondering where a '60s female stockbroker lives? Let Lee Remick show you!
And, of course, I have to include a photo of their telephone: it's pale yellow!
The Wheeler Dealers is a fun comedy from 1963 starring Lee Remick as Molly, a stockbroker who works for an absolute jerk and is trying to keep her job by selling off shares in Universal Widgets. Enter the Texan tycoon Tyroon, played by James Garner, who helps her out just so he can get closer to her.
It's a fun movie with a great cast, including Remick's roommate, Eloise, played by Pat Crowley. Together, they live in a frothy pastel apartment that's perfect for any bachelorette. Let's take a look.
We're first introduced to the bathroom, which is pale blue and tiled with an enviable vanity table.
I'm including this screenshot because I love Molly's pussy bow blouse!
Here's the main entry area, with a closet off to the side.
There's a tiny, coral pink walk-in kitchen just off the living room area. Where everything else is pale blue, the kitchen really stands out.
Here's a better glimpse of the kitchen with all its colour-appropriate knick-knacks. Even the range hood matches the coral aesthetic.
Here's a glimpse of the living room and balcony area.
And the nice mid-century storage cabinets that act as a hallway to the bedroom.
Of course it's pale blue. I love the headboard and the curtains.
Here's another glimpse of the living room area with the space behind the kitchen shown. There's another chair down there and a tiny end table.
The kitchen cupboards are interesting.
I'm including this because I love the hair dryer element. Imagine having to use those today!
I love the wrought iron-design on the chair.
Hey, it's James Garner!
Yet another glimpse of the living room area, and our first of that large plant that's taller than James Garner.
Even the artwork is soft and feminine. It suits the pale blue walls.
And the artwork in the hallway is interesting as well. Frames Eloise perfectly.
It's a comfy-looking couch.
