Bernard Verley in Love in the Afternoon (Éric Rohmer, 1972) Cast: Bernard Verley, Zouzou, Françoise Verley, Daniel Ceccaldi, Malvina Penne, Elisabeth Ferrier. Screenplay: Éric Rohmer. Cinematography: Néstor Almendros. Love in the Afternoon, released in the United States originally as Chloé in the Afternoon, is the last of Éric Rohmer's cycle of "Six Moral Tales," and it may be the most conventionally moralistic of them all. It's about a man, Frédéric (Bernard Verley), happily married, with one child and another on the way, who indulges in the fantasies about women in which all men indulge -- even Jimmy Carter, remember, confessed to committing lust in his heart. He's careful to avoid anything other than fantasies until an old acquaintance, Chloé (Zouzou), re-enters his life. Free-spirited and footloose in ways that Frédéric once remembers being, Chloé offers an enlargement of his fantasies: a dalliance that never extends to sexual intercourse -- until, of course, the day that consummation actually looms. Like most of Rohmer's "Tales," Love in the Afternoon is mostly talk -- rich, stimulating dialogue that only the philosophically loquacious French seem able to indulge in. It's a tour de force in sexual tension, with splendid performances by Bernard Verley and Zouzou -- one of those supremely French jolie laide actresses who audibly suck on their cigarettes.

What makes the streets of Paris so fascinating is the constant yet fleeting presence of women whom I'm almost certain never to see again.

Prince, Offred or a Walnut Whip? The thinking person’s style icons for autumn | Fashion

Prince: tailoring

Sure, one of Prince’s most memorable outfits consisted of a trench coat, pants and thigh-high stockings. But AW17 is all about his mid-80s tour wardrobe. See, for inspo, the purple, ruched suit of the Purple Rain tour, or the banana-yellow suit – with cropped jacket – for Parade, both of which had the shoulders and shapes of the Balenciaga menswear. Some of these will be showcased in the upcoming My Name Is Prince exhibition at the O2. Also on display is the cloud-covered design worn in the Raspberry Beret video – the kind of suit that dreams are made of. Lauren Cochrane

Thomas Ruff portraits: neutrals

Shirt dress, £99, cosstores.com

German photographer Thomas Ruff has been documenting modern suburbia and its people for over four decades, but his passport-style portraits (the focus of a new exhibition at London’s Whitechapel Gallery) are the most relevant for your wardrobe this season. We’ve spotted accidental references to Balenciaga’s oversized earrings, Christopher Kane’s neutral pastel trenches, and here – casual minimalism, finished with a brooch, which manages to be both Céline and Gucci.

The Handmaid’s Tale’s Offred: red

Though not actually on TV this autumn, Offred’s influence is everywhere. Red is the season’s undisputed colour, while modest dressing is its macro-trend. The politics of dressing modestly are complex, to say the least – and surely nobody wants to channel Gilead repression chic? – but, weirdly enough, the show has seeped into the psyches of designers from Uniqlo to Preen. On the upside: all those voluminous skirts made the usual October debates over whether opaque black tights are naff or not moot. Hannah Marriott

Jean-Michel Basquiat: checks

Checked top, £79, arket.com

The story goes that Jean-Michel Basquiat enjoyed such a juggernaut of success in the early 80s that his pockets were filled with dollar bills. The pockets, typically, were checked and attached to some sharp outerwear. The front row stole Basquiat’s look recently – the check count was high at the shows, to the extent where the “awks” emoji could have been utilised by seat mates. To ring the changes, head to the Basquiat exhibition at the Barbican. When not wearing checks, the artist had a thing for trench coats, Armani suits and boxing gloves. Boom, for real. LC

The Deuce: The 70s jumper

Seventies jumper, £29.99, hm.com

Clearly, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s Eileen “Candy” Merrell is the style headliner of David Simon’s new series The Deuce – what with the poodle hair and her fondness for furs (let’s hope they are faux), which lend a brittle urban quality to her character. But journalist Sandra Washington (Natalie Paul) is scene-stealing, too. Her roll-neck jumpers are winners for those of us who have grown bored with 1990s-style trophy sweatshirts, and are craving something a little more crafty and homespun from our knitwear this winter. (She also has a very nice, very AW17 way with a caramel-coloured suede trouser suit.) MF

Stranger Things’s Lucas: corduroy

The TV series most beloved by the fashion pack right now is Stranger Things, with Eleven starring in a Calvin Klein campaign and Louis Vuitton putting Stranger Things band-merch-style T-shirts on the catwalk. The standout style icon of the show, FYI, is clearly Lucas, whose boxy corduroy jacket is totally Prada AW17. Corduroy is the fabric of now for all the reasons that Stranger Things is the TV show de nos jours: it’s authentic, it’s nostalgic and it’s warm. HM

Blade Runner 2049’s Joi: transparency

Yes, Joi’s lack of characterisation in Blade Runner 2049 was disappointing. But … did you see her transparent coat? It was spookily similar to the clear plastic thigh-high boots, ponchos and visors on Chanel’s most recent catwalk. What the popularity of wipe-clean, waterproof fashion says about our collective psyche is a discussion for another day, but this is a practical trend that brings sci-fi reality to earthling wardrobes. HM

Walnut Whips: brown

Walnut Whip, and body, £19.99, mango.com. Composite: Alamy/PR

Tobacco was the neutral colour of the season, but rather than promote smoking, call it “Walnut Whip”, or rather “Whip”, now that the makers have launched versions without the walnut. Fashion approves for two reasons. First, Saint Laurent and Max Mara had plenty of pieces in this particular shade of chocolate. And second, the success of this colour pivots on head-to-toe commitment to it. Perhaps the walnut could be a little hat? MF

Fa temps que Ordet és un assidu d’IFL, crec que mai l’he preguntat si el seu nick és un homenatge a la pel·lícula de Carl Theodor Dreyer, perquè és obvi que el seu nom és un altre, però ho deixarem en el aire i si ell ens en vol fer cinc cèntims, benvinguda serà l’explicació.

Ordet va deixar constància per primera vegada de la seva existència a IFL, en forma de comentari el 29 de desembre de 2009 en ocasió d’aquell Trovatore de les cortines i els playmobils que aquest any, ves per on, es reposa amb un nou vestuari, tot esperant que aquelles sedes orientals caríssimes, un caprici de messieur Deflo, amb els anys hagin millorat. El cas és que des d’aquell comentari nadalenc fins ara, l’amic Ordent n’ha deixat 132 més, si no m’he descomptat, el darrer ahir mateix tot parlant de la producció de Rodelinda del Teatro Real que sembla que també veurem al Liceu, l’òpera barroca que més li agrada segons el qüestionari que us deixo ja tot seguit.

La primera vegada que vas anar a l’òpera quin any va ser? M’ha costat trobar l’any però va ser al 1994

A quin teatre? Si els jardins de Peralada es poden considerar teatre…

Quina òpera vas veure? Il turco in Italia

Els teus pares anaven o van a l’òpera? No, però va ser el meu pare que m’hi va portar llavors. Li havien regalat dues entrades.

Quin compositor operístic t’estimes més? Mozart

Quina és l’aspecte que valores més d’una representació operística? Suposo que la combinació de tots.

Quin és el teu tenor predilecte? Nicolai Gedda

Quina és la teva soprano predilecta? Elisabeth Schwarzkopf

Quin és ell teu baríton predilecte? Fischer-Dieskau

Quina és la teva mezzosoprano predilecta? Christa Ludwig

Quin és el teu baix predilecte? Mark Reizen

Quin és el teatre dels que has visita que més t’ha impressionat? La Bastilla

Podries viure en una ciutat sense teatre d’òpera? En visc en una. O sigui, que és possible…

Quina és la teva òpera predilecte? Ufff. Costa molt decidir-se. Così fan tutte?

Quina òpera detestes? Potser no la detesto, però em costa molt el Boris Godunov

Valora de 1 a 10 la importància del director d’escena en una representació operística 5

A quina ciutat del món que no sigui la teva i amb teatre d’òpera, t’agradaria viure? Berlin, segur.

Quin és el llibretista operístic preferit? Da Ponte

Quin és el teu heroi de ficció operística? Estic entre Parsifal i Falstaff (tot un món). Avui em quedo amb Falstaff.

Quina és la teva heroïna de ficció operística? Aquesta sí que la tinc segura, la Mariscala.

La gravació operística que t’enduries a l’illa deserta? El Don Giovanni de Salzburg del 1954 amb Furtwängler

El director d’orquestra operístic preferit? Em cau fatal, però Karajan

El director d’escena preferit? Tcherniakov (no em puc treure del cap el Kitege)

La representació operística que t’hagués agradat assistir? La famosa Traviata de la Scala amb la Callas, Visconti i Giulini.

L’òpera barroca que més t’agrada? Uff. Molt complicat. El barroc m’entanta. Rodelinda en seria una.

L’òpera clàssica que més t’agrada? Doncs per no dir més Mozart, Il matrimonio segreto

L’òpera romàtica que més t’agrada? Parsifal

L’òpera del segle XX que més t’agrada? El cavaller de la rosa

L’òpera del segle XXI que més t’agrada? Ho sento, pero cap.

Si poguessis escollir una vocalitat lírica, què t’agradaria ser: soprano, mezzosoprano, contralt, tenor, baríton o baix? Contralt i seria en la veu de Kathleen Ferrier.

Com que a Youtube tenim la sort de tenir el Don Giovanni de Mozart dirigit per Wilhelm Furtwängler a l’any 1954 a Salzburg, la versió discogràfica que s’enduria a l’illa deserta, no ho he pensat dues vegades, perquè estem parlat d’un monument operístic imponent

Gràcies Ordet per oferir-nos a nous motius de reflexió tot i la intolerància envers el Boris Godunov, que no tindré en compte :-(

La setmana vinent tindrem el goig de compartir el qüestionari d’un altre fidel habitual,  Jordifosal

EL QÜESTIONARI IFL D’ORDET Fa temps que Ordet és un assidu d'IFL, crec que mai l'he preguntat si el seu nick és un homenatge a la pel·lícula de Carl Theodor Dreyer, perquè és obvi que el seu nom és un altre, però ho deixarem en el aire i si ell ens en vol fer cinc cèntims, benvinguda serà l'explicació.
