Woke up with another idea. It was there all the time. I’ve seen and studied this picture ages ago which could be a reason why the mugshots interest me. I should explain.

M-G-M Studios, test photographs (1938) George Hommel, studio photographer

These photographs taken for The Wizard of Oz are test shots for hair, makeup and wardrobe, but of course they are mugshots. Well, as we know Dorothy did kill the first person she meets before teaming up with three strangers only to then kill again. Maybe I should make a visual physiological profile of this psychopathic murderer. This is a big project. I need to remain focused on the 1920s mugshots and uncanny nurses as this is where I am now. Perhaps Dorothy with her psychopathic personality should be my degree project. I need to discuss this with my tutor. I think it would be good to start writing a journal with thoughts, ideas and images of Dorothy so I don’t lose this train of thought.
