STYLE: Tom Ford. A Single Style.
Nov13
After reading so much about Tom Ford and his new film A Single Man, I decided to dedicate a post for the fellas.
This is just a quick guide to the top Tom Ford accessory, his signature Rodrigo Sunglasses. I tried to included a little something for every budget, just to prove that it doesn't take a large sum of cash to have the look of luxury. Enjoy!
FILM: Tom Ford Directs. A Single Man.
Nov12
Tom Ford makes his directorial debut with a screenplay he has adapted alongside David Scearce (his first screenplay credit as well) from the same-named 1964 novel by British author Christopher Isherwood.
The similarities you feel from the trailer to the series Mad Men is no coincidence. As it turns out, production designer Dan Bishop has worked as Mad Men’s PD for all three seasons, and both are set to take place in the early ’60s. I also read somewhere that Mad Men’s Don Draper, actor Jon Hamm, has an uncredited voice role in the film.
Expected release date for New York is December 11, 2009.
FILM: Volver
Oct25
Three generations of women survive the east wind, fire, insanity, superstition and even death by means of goodness, lies and boundless vitality. They are Raimunda (Penelope Cruz), who is married to an unemployed labourer and has a teenage daughter; Sole, her sister, who makes a living as a hairdresser; and the mother of both, who died in a fire along with her husband. This character appears first to her sister and then to Sole, although the people with whom she has some unresolved matters are Raimunda and her neighbor in the village, Agustina.
I just finished watching this, and if you haven't seen it yet, you must. It is a really beautiful film.
FILM: We Were Once A Fairytale
Oct22I don't even know what to say, you just really have to watch the video.
AND. . .be sure to watch it all the way through, because the last minute of it really makes it a Spike Jonze film. Please feel welcome to leave comments, I would, but I'm kinda speechless right now.

FILM: Notte Sento
Apr11
One of the most charming stop motion films I have experienced yet. Notte Sento was created from 4500+ still photographs all shot with a Canon EOS 30D camera. I absolutely adore this film and its ability to transport me back to warm nights in Italy.
