A ran into an article about Sofia Coppola the other day, while throwing my eyes on a magazine. I never thought I could find out more about my favorite director, actually never imagined she could have made such connections and by this I refer to the world of fashion.The article was about her collaboration with the great designer Luis Vuitton- but that is not the purpose of my post. While reading about her, I got invaded by a sweet melancholy of her movies, of the feeling of numbness and empathy that I could have ever felt. I designated her my favorite of all, as in each and every film I watched I could totally permit myself get mystified by the characters she build and I could reach more of the non-verbal dialog, script or replica of the plot.
I started to research a bit about her, transcending the wall of her directing experience and I discovered a wall full of captures from her movies, along with the poster's thought- "I would like to sit in a bath tub and pretend I am in Sofia Coppola film"..I would like to be able to put my thoughts and experiences like in a Sofia Coppola movie, where even myself I would find me wandering between possibilities of endings.
"It’s always more intriguing to imagine what’s happening, as opposed to seeing everything, because then you can use your imagination. I always wanted to be at a distance." Sofia Coppola (via lapetitemandarine)
It wasn't in my plan of course, to watch a movie, but apparently I like not getting by the schedule. There's no other charming feeling than discovering young and fresh directors. Style is something that involves also a person's preferences and creativity, what that person can make out of his or her surroundings, people and different activities.And I like the easiness and fluency of thought, the lightness that some films are able to build. I never go by appearances, nevertheless get misdirected by the opinion of masses. I watched the trailer, I liked it, I gave it a chance. It's young and hormonal and somehow the perfect balance between maturity and adolescence. It just makes me want to go back in time and evolve rapidly into a diffuse me. The characters from the plot are build with less words and more artistic expression of eyes and mouth, of pauses in speaking and breathing.
*An awaiting of the end, for which I didn't motive any directional expectations.Great music, young actors.
Giving the fact that everything concerning books or reaching into that direction attracts me, this video which has been experiencing some years, I must say it kept me interested giving me some light feeling of hope. It is unexpectedly catchy and also was filmed in a library, the camera concentrating upon one female character who seems to be looking for something, be it information or own need to fulfill her thirst for knowledge, but in the same time transporting the experiences of others passing by. The video was of course, recommended by one of my best friends wanting to celebrate her discovery, so to say. I embraced it with all my soul listening to it as a matter of reminding me of my purposes, of my liberation from all superficial and commercial around me.
