Pauline Acquart - Retenez Son Nom

[fish]

Pauline: "Don't think you can sweettalk your way out of this one Dave.
Get your hands off me!"



"And stop calling me Kylie."

[DMt.]

Pauline: Don't think you can sweettalk your way out of this one Dave...

DMt. [flustered]: Eh? What one? I'm innocent! I never didn't - oh, hang on, you mean the 'portrait'? I can explain...put down the gun, please...now, listen, I could either download the pic, print it out, draw a grid over it, transfer the grid to a suitable canvas, painstakingly redraw all the main lines and blocks, fill in with paint, and then re-photograph and upload the result...or...I could just crop it nicely in a graphics program, fiddle with the brightness and contrast, crush it down to 16 colours to get that blobby Expressionist thing going, and re-upload. See?

Pauline [pulls rifle bolt] : Prepare to die, artiste de con.

DMt. : Wait! Obviously, for reasons of...of...of artistic integrity, I had to pursue the course that would give the best result; and given my truly awesome painting skills that's, uh, exactly what I did. You don't like it? OK, OK, put down the gun, already...look, I'll do a proper portrait, full classical method...all you have to do is sit for me every afternoon for, ooh, about six months should do it...how does that sound?

Pauline [silence, one raised eyebrow, rifle still half raised]: ...

DMt. [hopefully]: Well, can we talk about it over lunch? I don't know about you, but I'm starving.

[fish]

...Well, can we talk about it over lunch?...

Pauline: "You better be buying. Or else."

[snaps]

Fuck yeh! I'd surrender

[Dahls]

But she really don't need a rifle to keep us captivity, does she?



Btw, what film is this taken from?

[DMt.]

But she really don't need a rifle to keep us captivity, does she?

Nope.

Btw, what film is this taken from?

The music video 'Private Lily' by Damien Odoul, for the band Moriarty;

Love that clip.
But it must have been bloody cold the way she's shivering.

[Dahls]

Maybe she's caught on to the latest strange trend in Norway, called "naking" (nudeing). Sort of a even weirder version of the Australian "planking". You simply climb a mounten, undress to the full monty, and have you're picture taken infront of a cliff or something.

The odd things kids come up with these days

[DMt.]

Interesting...way to embrace the planet!

Is L'Acquart shaking off the ghost of Marie, aka "Mme. Pas-Des-Seins", in that music video...?

Well, that's my theory, anyway. I've several times thought of making a .gif of that part of the video, but thought better of it because of misinterpretation / misappropriation issues.

[Dahls]

It's quite a liberating feeling actually, naked in the majestic nature
I've never do it infront of a camera though, don't see any reason to really.

Is L'Acquart shaking off the ghost of Marie, aka "Mme. Pas-Des-Seins", in that music video...?

A more plausible theory, I agree

[DMt.]

I would, in her shoes.

Marie was still half a child, but L'Acquart is a full-grown woman, as anyone can see.

This post is the 12k-th view of the thread...

I wonder what the total views will be by the anniversary [Dec 8th]? 15-16k, at the current rate...maybe more.

My hope is that it will assist in bringing Pauline Acquart Bourquelot to the wider global audience she so obviously deserves.

[fish]

Pauline: "'Naking' indeed. No way I'm taking my clothes off in front of a camera."

...My hope is that it will assist in bringing Pauline Acquart Bourquelot to the wider global audience she so obviously deserves.

I certainly hope so Dave.

[fish]

Bourka in 2009, showing how its done.

[DMt.]

Bourka

That's an affectionate little nickname, Fish...

Did you come up with it, or have you seen it somewhere?

[DMt.]

You know what, Au Septieme Jour is a really seriously heavy bit of work... l'Acquart's spot-on portrayal of teenage alienation and despair is very scary indeed, and Samuel Doux is evidently very aware of what a talent he is directing, in her; the camera work is reverent, adoring almost.

I hope someday they can work on a full-length feature [and that it's at the other end of the emotional spectrum ]
