Pauline Acquart - Retenez Son Nom

[DMt.]

Earth to Fish...Earth to Fish...that's not going to happen...especially if you keep re-posting pix!

Double especially if they're the 'Acquart, Queen of Sorrows' sort [as most available pix would seem to be]

... if they're the 'Acquart, Queen of Sorrows' sort

Is there any other kind?

...especially if you keep re-posting pix!

Is there any other kind?


A delightful little pic of some shoes posted by Marine on 26th Apr 2010.








And just in case you were wondering she also posted this one.

[DMt.]

Is there any other kind?

Well, you found one there - they're not exactly smiling, but not unhappy either, it seems...and we did find all those smiley pix a while back [tough going though it was]. I suspect that most of the existing images de l'Acquart are now in this thread - or all the good ones, anyway.

PAB apparently favours pink shoes - remember the famous Nikes from NdP?

According to certain lesbian schools of opinion, they consciously dressed l'Acquart in the "baby dyke's global uniform" of iffy golf top, Levi's and retro Nikes - I find this believeable, although it's also possible that they just used whatever Pauline liked to wear...

Plea d'un Vieux Astrologue

Chere Acquart, si t'apporterez
La lumiere de ta pensées,
Donner un peu de ta puissance;
Permettre le temps de ta naissance!



[I hope that says...]

An Old Astrologer's Plea

Dear Acquart, if you bring to us
The light of what is in your thoughts,
Give just a little of your power;
Allow the time of your birth hour!

[fish]

Cher Acquart, si t'apporterez

Just for fun I let Gurgle translate it too.
Came up with "Acquart expensive"
Shouldn't have bothered really, I mean, Gargle can barely speak English.



No pink shoes here I'm afraid, and I think we've been to this party before, but they were posted by a different person and seem to be different, though similar, pics.
From Val, Nov 2008.

Without Gaggle Translate my schoolboy French would collapse completely.

However, I am quite sure it will make me ridiculous at some point, probably when I'm trying hardest to be earnest and sincere.

I may tease you, Fishy, about your duplicated contributions [of which grave aesthetic sin I, of course, am completely innocent], but you are a hero of this thread, nonetheless.

[fish]

Without Gaggle Translate my schoolboy French would collapse completely...

So I'm not the only one.
Whew!

Thanks for your kindness, fellow hero.


Bourka: "Shut up you guys or I'm going to walk out of this pic."

[DMt.]

Hmmm...

Ye-e-es...

Well...

So...last one out turn off the lights?

Or maybe something new will happen.

[fish]

Bourka: "Nothing new ever happens at the parties I go to Dave.
I always wind up alone next to a couple of exhibitionists."

[DMt.]

I'm not throwing a moody [honest!] - I just think, since there's so little news or new pics de l'Acquart that it might be better to let the thread rest awhile, rather than fill it with repostings...?

I think that might hurt the special, which this thread undoubtedly has... [or should that be 'had'?]

19k views coming up...might try to do something extraspecial for the 20k, not sure what yet.

[DMt.]

Lurkity-lurk...

Céline Sciamma interview snippet [from http://www.cinemien.nl/sites/pers_persmappen/6037_persmap.pdf ];

"Then there is Marie, who can be considered the main character of the film and who is above all an observer…

She is the most childish and the youngest. I wanted their bodies to be different and most of all not get caught up in the fantasy of cotton underwear. Marie is a mix of grace and awkwardness. She is the main character but paradoxically, she is the one who observes most. She has a goal to reach but she is above all an observer. I was interested in that for the main character. She examines but we’re going to examine her too. Through her, I wanted to talk about the moment when inescapable desire is born.

For her, the birth of this desire is unpredictable. It happens in real time and the viewer has to experience it at the same time as her. We accompany her seduction, understanding and suffering. I wanted to embody the moment that lasts a few days, when awareness is born… it is the birth of the feeling of love seen from a very physical angle. I wanted to avoid a sociological study. For me, homosexuality is not a subject, it’s a journey. Generally speaking, the film stops where most films dealing with the issue start.

Before anything else; Naissance des Pieuvres/Water Lilies tells how we fall in love. The prism of homosexuality allows me to talk about the birth of love in a different way. It gives me the chance to film things that have never been filmed before like the scene where the two girls take each other’s virginity. [What??? - DMt.] But through these three characters, the film says all forms of desire are inevitable, all forms of desire are unappeased and Marie’s possibly contextual homosexuality does not make her a martyr."

[Ian]

Must have missed that bit.

[DMt.]

Translation error, presumably. There's no, uh, reciprocity of the 'favour' in the film, that I can see.

LOL! Seems it was short an 'e' - now Giggle translates it as 'Dear'...

So, for this 19,000th view of the thread, I repeat the Plea d'un Vieux Astrologue minus l'erreur gauche;

Chere Acquart, si t'apporterez
La lumiere de ta pensées,
Donner un peu de ta puissance;
Permettre le temps de ta naissance!
