also, since we’re in the cinema section, the movie i saw yesterday was logorama, the short animated movie that won the oscar. that was really cool and i was kind of proud as the guys who made the film (h5) went to the same school as i did!…
for the ones interested, here’s a funny bit, one of the first jobs these guys ever done was the video clip for alex gopher “the child” which is not very far from logorama after all. by pp
saw the trailer of this movie yesterday at ifc… looks really great and it seems important to support those guys. must see by pp
the big three, angelica huston (what an amazing women), terry and bob in more innocent pastures… for what ever its said about terry (in paris), his work in my opinion is way beyond nudity. i mean there are millions of nudy photogs and you cant bundle terry into that. this trash talk is like writing off Araki as just a nudy photographer and not being able to see past our puritan and rather hypocritical ways, just to get some attention… and that would be rather shallow wouldn’t it. o.k. you can all comment now! by dd
david lynch’s mulholland drive movie poster
the glasses adam kesher a.k.a actor justin theroux wore
passed by moscot on delancey few days ago and i saw those weird extra bold glasses in the window. i was really surprised (in a good way) when they told me they were the glasses adam kesher a.k.a actor justin theroux wore in david lynch’s mulholland drive. it’s based on a vintage french frame that they remade for the movie and decided to issued some for fun. so of course it’s not the obvious pair of trendy glasses but at the same time it’s not the easiest choice either. and that’s what i like about it. that being said the 300 made, are not sold out yet (and the movie was not released yesterday…) by pp
i’m not very proud of my source here but a certain magazine is featuring the 10 favorite movie posters of martin scorcese as well as an interview of the man to go with the release of a coffee table book celebrating hollywood’s vintage movie posters.
here is an extract “For me, and anyone who grew up before a certain time—sometime in the 1980s I’d say—posters were a key part of the moviegoing experience. You’d walk through the lobby, and you’d look at the poster, usually accompanied by lobby cards and often by stills and promotional language, of the film you were about to see, and the one that was coming next. You’d hold and absorb the image in your mind’s eye. Part of the excitement then was in watching the actual film and comparing it with the possible or likely film you’d conjured up during the few seconds you’d looked at the poster.” the rest is here and the book is here. by pp
it’s basically another fashion thing but of the interesting kind. it was posted on style.com over the past few weeks and it’s about the future of fashion, naysayers will say that fashion deserve to die, ok we got it…
whatever, asking about it’s future to 4 insiders on a commercial, photographic or trends point of view seems relevant.
there is 4 interviews including, robert duffy, olivier zahm, hedi slimane and cathy horyn. and it worth having a look, some interesting things are said. by pp’
why are cars so ugly today? it seems there are no designers left with a sense of proportion. or is it that the practicalities of life have taken precedent over a sense of vision. extra head room, extra truck space and super size seats to accomodate the worlds ‘growing’ population. well, happy birthday citroen SM, it just turned 40. by fe
i don’t know, but i somehow loved this guy. in a funny way i feel like i always knew who he was. even before knowing him. in my opinion camille had this amazing being, and she really fucked it up. if i was a girl jarvis would be my dream. by ay
if i may. by pp’
hilarious fashion gossip of the moment is that french vogue was recently ‘blacklisted’ from attending the balenciaga show in paris this week for three possible reasons: 1) carine roitfeld was naughtier than we ever imagined, and loaned a requested balenciaga sample to maxmara (a brand she consults for), 2) because balenciaga designer nicolas ghèsquiere was unimpressed by the firing of bestie marie amelie sauvé, or 3) because carine refused to remove unflattering photos of ghèsquiere from facebook. some people never really graduate from highschool i suppose. by kl
for being the first season without martin margiela doing the designing himself, the fall 2010 collection was still very much in his spirit. the crazy fur “cages” seem like a direct evolution of previous seasons hair coats. (i seem to recall seeing something very similar at the fever ray concert last fall…) and the quirky dimensions continue – this time the house redefined the waist. so unexpected and surprisingly chic. by kv
