I am super excited about this biopic of Serge Gainsbourg. Particularly all the Jane Birkin Outfit re-creations. "A glimpse at the life of French singer Serge Gainsbourg, from growing up in 1940s Nazi-occupied Paris through his successful song-writing years in the 1960s to his death in 1991 at the age of 62." via
Oh Hey French Music Mondays! Loving both of these songs' airy/whimsical qualities. First up "Elle Panique" by Olivia Ruiz + AIR's Sing Sang Sung(such a cute vid!) Enjoy and Have a great first day of the week.
Over the weekend I watched the amazing film "La Vie En Rose" ...the clothes and costumes were amazing (the film won best actress and best makeup and was nominated for best costume)... Here are some outfits I thought were interesting...if you haven't seen it you must!
"After his critically-acclaimed directorial debut, Mon Idole (Whatever You Say), French actor Guillaume Canet now brings us Tell No One, based on American writer Harlan Coben's bestselling thriller.
Pediatric Alex, devastated since his wife Margot was savagely murdered in the early days of their marriage eight years before, receives an anonymous email. When he clicks on the link indicated, he sees a woman's face standing in a crowd and being filmed in real time. Margot's face...
Is she still alive? And why does she instruct him to tell no one? So many questions that our hero does not have time to consider: he barely even has time to raise the lid of this Pandora's Box before the police reopen the case. And, eight years down the line, the cops are determined that he will take the rap for murder.
Canet has rounded up a stellar cast, which includes Marie-Josée Croze, Kristen Scott-Thomas, Nathalie Baye, André Dussollier, Jean Rochefort, Marina Hands and Canet himself in a $20-million budget thriller featuring relentless suspense and breathtaking action"

For anyone who knows me well enough they will know I am obsessed with French Culture namely during the seventies and especially French new wave...
