Pauline Acquart - Retenez Son Nom

[fish]

It's on release, then?..

This rolled up on my Facbok page during my absence.
Copied from the LosF page so don't blame me for the silly capital letters.

"LOS FELIZ won the prize for BEST FOREIGN MOVIE at the SIENA FILM FESTIVAL.
last week contracts in ROME were signed for DISTRIBUTION of the movie in ITALIAN and FRENCH MOVIE THEATERS."


One girl swoons at the news.



I'll try to catch up with things in the next couple of days, hopefully.

[fish]

Some things haven't changed in my absence.
It isn't any easier to find her.


A swift kick and the devil's in real trouble, eh Pauline?

[fish]

I've received an invitation to a screening of "Dans la Chambre" next Sunday.
In Paris.
On the other side of the world.



Nothing unexpected I guess.
I've already replied.
Asked about getting my own copy as promised.

I'm not a particularly political animal, but I was appalled by the comments which recently came to light from one of the candidates in the USA elections.
The hands here reminded me that we should all be better than that.

Here in Manc, the slang expression 'to trump' means 'to fart'...

Getting ready, just in case someone tries to "Trump" in her general direction.

<thinks> "Pfeugh...what are they eating?"

[fish]

I don't remember eating anything that smelled that bad.



Or, as a general political statement.....



Well done Pauline.
I'm glad you decided to sleep through this post.

Last night on the "Arts" channel on pay TV I happened to find a ½hour English show interviewing Céline Sciamma.
A very serendipitous find in advance of the screening, so I recorded it.
All in English, very good interviewer.
Mainly about "Girlhood" but also a few minutes on "Tomboy" and "Water Lilies".

This was one of the clips they used.

...This was one of the clips they used.

And this was another.

" 'Oo you lookin' at?"

- because she didn't need to...

[DMt.]

PS nearly another 10k views already? Whoa!

Do we learn something new about these movies?

No. Nothing new. But it was nice to hear it all explained and to understand it without the need to translate.
Céline obviously speaks English very well.
And the interviewer was asking intelligent questions and then allowing Céline free range to answer.

...another 10k...

Wow. Still keeps rolling on, eh?


"Now take this back and cook me something decent."
