i watched this lookbook film several months ago and every now and then my mind drifts back to it. described as a hitchcock-inspired short, i really love how quiet and simple and pale everything is. not to mention jason schwartzman provides the music. simply lovely.
she is the cutest! zooey deschanel was my first “girl crush” around 5 or 6 years ago. i purposely avoid watching new girl so i can continue loving her. that seems like a perfectly acceptable way to spend a rainy afternoon!
doesn’t this brilliant video of paris from land of nod inc make you want to pack your bags at this very minute? i really like it’s style and the song is so catchy! they also have a similar video called coney island love letter which is all very dreamy and romantic. check it!
i’ve showcased kees van dijkhuizen’s [the film's of] series on the blog several times before with baz luhrmann, sofia coppola, and michel gondry. with this week’s addition of wes anderson, all he needs to do is woody allen and john hughes and my soul may be at rest.
there’s something about anderson’s work and i’m not sure how to pinpoint it. everything seems more quiet, more simple, more yellow, haha. it’s just a different way to look at situations. it took me several years to really become an anderson fanatic but i’m at the fanpoint where i really appreciate his viewpoints with the long dolly shots, or the crafty portrayal of a scene with strong, main quirky characters.
wes anderson once passed me on the street in new york and without thought or feeling i just started following him for several blocks. there we were, on the street corner. i smiled at him quietly because i felt like i knew his of secret of being someone important and also in a way brilliant. okay, so it was a little creepy of me, but i didn’t approach him. just quietly walked with him for several blocks. *sigh*
i’m greatly anticipating this month’s release of moonrise kingdom. aren’t you?!?!?! oh man. such a genius!!
inspiring. if you haven’t seen the film frida, then i highly suggest that you do. even after going to art school, i think frida’s art is nice but not my favourite, however as a woman, artist, and soul i think her story is fascinating and inspiring. the culture and colours are lovely and i believe there is much to learn from here.
