——————

Stéphane Miroux(Bernal) recently moved to France from Mexico City after his father passes away to be closer to his now widowed mother. He meets his neighbor Stephanie(Gainsbourg) and is instantly smitten. Nothing is coming of his relationship with Stephanie or his new job, so Stéphane retreats to his dream worlds where he creates and controls his content. Suddenly his life begins to become distorted as his dream world and real life are beginning collide and he isn’t able to distinct the two worlds as they begin to bleed into one another without control.

This is a very interesting film. The story isn’t super rock solid but I don’t think it’s supposed to be. 2.8👍🏻 out of 5.

When I was younger this film resonated with me a lot more. Escape to curated dreamlands seemed a lot more fun than seeing the world in front of us. I feel like this film is reminding us of these feelings.

This film is also charming as all get out, but as time passes I begin to wonder if it’s not the over all film, but the energy of Gael Garcia Bernal and Charolette Gainsbourg? They both come off charming and help you completely identify with the situations in front of them in a kiddish way. Bernal also gives you so many emotions and reactions as his face over exaggerated every scene but felt very natural, particularly as his characters personality’s and manias make themselves ever growing and present.

The tone of the movie feels somber. Everything feels like it has a very subtle sepia tint to it the entire movie. Which I think is meant to make you feel like you are in the dreamworlds that he creates.

The production value feels very much of the time and the soundtrack is very cutesy.

Everything’s ends abruptly and leaves things opened and somewhat satisfying.

Overall, this movie feels like it was made for the “Emo” and the indy crowds of the mid/early oughts but with some substance to be a general release.

The Science of Sleep (2006) ⠀⠀ - I love how a lot of the scenes are in stop motion using a lot of diff materials like wool, cellophane, and cardboard rolls. ⠀⠀ - Very vain of me, but I always liked how the female character’s name is Stephanie and male character’s name is Stephane. I deeply relate to both of them but more so Stephane. ⠀⠀ - Charlotte Gainsbourg who plays Stephanie is also a singer who has a beautiful, almost haunting voice. Listen to “L’un part... l’autre reste” to get what I mean. #goldentheponyboy https://www.instagram.com/p/B2gVRlHhfT5/?igshid=u6oq9ga3dclu

La Moderne Mother — Christine Muhlke

Should you happen to run into Christine Muhlke on the street in Manhattan, she’ll likely have a bike helmet in one hand. In the other, a crisp wax paper bag of baked delights, perhaps? Or a brown paper bag, which she’ll extend and offer, “Fresh pluot?” With an inquisitive mind that’s always raised up to eleven the Bon Appétit Editor-at-Large and founder of food consultancy Bureau X knows everyone in the food industry and everything related to fashion and beauty, so what she has curated from both categories comes from a whole lot of research—and maybe a sixth sense?—which she gamely shared. This Mother’s Day, take a page from Muhlke’s lunch pale, and get ready to shop great buys from Aesop to Issey Miyake. Or, when in doubt, give mom the gift that keeps on giving: a La Garçonne gift card.

What is your most worn fashion item?

These days it’s a pair of 80's Yohji Yamamoto pants that I found at Ritual Vintage. They’ve got kind of a poopy-diaper silhouette (I love an awkward trouser…). Now that I’m no longer in an office everyday, I can put outfits on REPEAT. These pants were my base all fall and winter.

What is your most beloved fashion item?

A vintage Plantation by Issey Miyake cocoon jacket. My fairy godmother gave it to me before my junior year in Paris. It’s my winter staple even though it has a few small holes. I only wish that I hadn’t given away the pants senior year…

What is your wish list fashion purchase for summer?

Another pair of Merida pants from Apiece Apart, but this time in painter’s-pants cream. I can’t stop wearing them in blue, so I might as well mix it up.

How would you best describe your fashion look?

Asymmetrical art mom.

How would you best describe your beauty look?

Lo-fi.

Did you get any beauty advice growing up? What was it, and who gave it to you?

Not really. But when I was 22, I was on a shoot with a famous makeup artist, and he told me to always remember to moisturize the neck and décolletage, which I’ve done religiously ever since.

Who do you think is beautiful?

Any woman who thinks for herself and knows what suits her.

Who did you find beautiful when you were growing up?

Grace Kelly, Isabella Rossellini, and Princess Stephanie, in her short hair phase.

What’s the best thing about being a mom?

Spontaneous joy pockets.

What surprised you most about having a son?

The physicality!

How has being a mom affected your beauty routine?

Wait, did I brush my teeth this morning?

How has being a mom affected your fashion routine?

I hope you like this outfit, because I’ll be wearing it for the next two weeks.

Does your son have any sentiments about fashion?

Yes! He really responds to prints and “beautiful dresses,” and often asks me to wear them. (Once I put on a black jumpsuit before going out and he cried.) He also wishes that I wore more jewelry.

Otherwise, he’s pretty agnostic. Recently, his father got him into Greek mythology. One day, he came home and said, “Dad said that Hermes is your favorite god, and that they pronounce it differently in France.”

What is your definition of luxury beauty?

To me, “luxury beauty” is a combination of time and care. Great packaging and fragrance are key, too. This all comes together with the treatments at CAP Beauty, where everything from the sheets to the playlist to the scents of the all-natural products has been considered to the Nth degree.

Do you have a tried and true beauty product you've been loyal to for ages?

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Cream with SPF 15. It has retinol and SPF 15. I’ve been using it for fifteen-years, and I’m pretty sure it’s why you can’t tell that I’m 97.

What is your:

Shower gel: Aesop Geranium Leaf Body Cleanser and Jo Malone Lime Mandarin Basil Shower Oil.

Body lotion: Belcampo Farm to Face Intensive Moisturizer. It’s made from pig lard and it goes everywhere!

Face cleanser: Linné Purify face wash in the A.M., and Tata Harper Nourishing Oil Cleanser at night.

Face moisturizer: Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Cream in the A.M., and Tata Harper Beautifying Face Oil at night.

Hair product: I am so addicted to Oribe, particularly the Dry Texturizing Spray and Supershine Light Moisturizing Crème. (Full disclosure: I’ve been a copywriter for Oribe for almost a decade now. I’ve even done some product naming).

Makeup: Quick: Bare Minerals concealer, Olio e Osso Sofia Stick on cheeks, NARS mascara.

Fragrance: Jo Malone Amber Lavender cologne in the fall and winter, Jo Malone Lime Mandarin Basil cologne, and Grapefruit cologne in spring and summertime.

Does Max have favorite grooming products?

He uses Weleda Calendula Shampoo and Body Wash—I’m jealous!

Toothpaste?

I would say Tom’s of Maine, but he got me to buy him some Minions Colgate toothpaste…

Does he like fragrance?

He loves it and puts it on with his Dad. He loves all of the citrusy Hermès men’s fragrances.

What beauty task are you not interested in?

It’s all pretty weird when you think about it. Especially shaving.

Which beauty step do you think is bullshit?

I used to think that serums were a crock, but then my friend went to work at Lancôme, and I got hooked.

Any beauty product you're curious to try?

I was dying to try the Jeanette Multiple Tint from the Nars Cosmetics collaboration with Charlotte Gainsbourg in a way that I haven’t experienced in years. I even went into a makeup store! But, in the end, it wasn’t for me. The associate got me to try what looked like lip gloss from that collection (not my bag). Turns out, it’s a sheer stain with a coconut-oil base. Obsessed!

Any beauty product you wish someone would invent?

An all-in-one everything stick or pencil. Or maybe a spray-on face.

Do you consider yourself wellness/health minded?

Yes. I’m one of those healthy-ish types who makes her own kombucha, energy ballz, and kimchi; puts all sorts of powders (tocotrienols, He Shou Wu, Schisandra Berry Moon Juice, and Shop Spa Blog’s Reishi Mushrooms) and magic berries (mulberry, goji) on her oatmeal and in her smoothies; and then goes to Wildair and inhales a buttery fried potato cake, steak tartare with half a loaf of bread, two desserts, and a bottle of wine…then gets up for a 7 A.M. Modo Yoga class.

Do you exercise?

Before having a kid I worked out six days a week and was still heavy because I was starving all the time. Now, I’m able to swim maybe three times a month and make a weekly yoga class—and, weirdly, I’m much more fit. I’ve gotten my son into helping me with the Scientific 7-Minute Workout (try planking with a four-year-old on your back!) once to twice a week. Otherwise, I build in activity wherever I can: biking everywhere, taking the stairs to my sixth-floor apartment, doing wall sits if/when I’m in an elevator (also good with a four-year-old on your knees!) and beginning each morning with pushups and boat pose.

Who do you think has aged beautifully?

Charlotte Rampling, Ruthie Rogers, Linda Rodin.

Cinema ímpar: 10 filmes importantes que disseram muito sobre a vida

Você pode até achar que os filmes abaixo não tiveram muito o que dizer. Ou que não trouxeram nada em especial. Pode até achar que foram perda de tempo. Talvez você esteja certo. Mas talvez não esteja. Na dúvida, tente de novo. Ou comece essa lista pela primeira vez…

1. Meu Jantar com André (1981) – Dir. Louis Malle

Wallace Shawn, fazendo o papel dele mesmo, sai para jantar com um amigo que não via há muito tempo, André Gregory (também fazendo o papel dele mesmo) e os dois travam um diálogo existencial durante a refeição.

2. O Homem que Incomoda (2006) – Dir. Jens Lien

Andreas desembarca numa cidade estranha sem lembrar como chegou ali. É recebido de forma cordial e inicia uma vida regrada, com trabalho, casa e até uma mulher encantadora. Mas rapidamente percebe que tem alguma coisa errada neste mundo perfeito. As pessoas não parecem sentir emoções genuínas e só falam de trivialidades. Ele tenta escapar da cidade mas descobre que não tem saída. Isso até conhecer Hugo, que achou uma fissura no porão de casa, através da qual se ouve uma bela música. Seria esta uma comunicação com o “outro lado”?

3. No Topo do Poder (2016) – Dir. Ben Wheatley

O longa adaptará o livro futurista de J.G. Ballard publicado em 1975, sobre uma sociedade estruturada numa torre de condomínio gigantesca, projetada para isolar seus moradores do mundo exterior. Porém, o que era para ser o local perfeito para viver, uma guerra entre classes acontece, recriando um novo mundo governado pelas leis da selva.

4. Ensina-me a Viver (1971) – Dir. Hal Ashby

O relacionamento entre um rapaz de 20 anos com obsessão pela morte, que passa seu tempo indo a funerais ou simulando suicídios, e uma senhora de 79 anos encantada com a vida. Eles passam muito tempo juntos e, durante esta convivência, ela expõe a beleza da vida.

5. Garotos Incríveis (2000) – Dir. Curtis Hanson

Grady Tripp (Michael Douglas) é um professor universitário que escreve em suas horas vagas. Atormentado por um bloqueio de escritor, ele descobre que sua amante, Sara Gaskell (Frances McDormand), que é casada, está grávida de um filho dele. Além disto, tem que lidar com uma de suas alunas, Hannah (Katie Holmes), que está apaixonada por ele e ajudar um de seus alunos, James (Tobey Maguire), a encontrar uma rara jaqueta que teria sido usada por Marilyn Monroe.

6. Um Mundo Perfeito (1993) – Dir. Clint Eastwood

Texas, 1963.

Butch Haynes (Kevin Costner), um presidiário, foge da prisão, sendo perseguido por Red Garnett (Clint Eastwood), um policial implacável.

Ao entrar na casa de uma família leva consigo Phillip Perry (T.J. Lowther), um garoto de sete anos, como refém.

Mas contrariando suas expectativas eles se tornam amigos, sendo que este relacionamento transforma a vida do menino.

7. Aquele Que Sabe Viver (1962) – Dir. Dino Risi

No verão de 1962, Bruno, um playboy quarentão, leva Roberto, um tímido estudante de direito, para uma viagem de dois dias pelas estradas de Roma e da Toscana. Neste período, vivem uma série de aventuras e desventuras, com um desfecho surpreendente.

8. Paterson (2016) – Dir. Jim Jarmusch

Paterson é um motorista de ônibus que mora na cidade de Paterson, New Jersey – ele e a cidade dividem o mesmo nome. Diariamente, Paterson vive uma simples rotina: dirige pela rota diária, observa a cidade, ouve fragmentos de conversas, escreve poesias num caderno, passeia com o cachorro, bebe uma cerveja no bar de sempre e, finalmente, volta para casa, para a esposa Laura. Ela, em contraste, vive num mundo que sempre muda, com novos sonhos diários. Eles se amam. Ele a apoia no alcance das novas ambições, ela festeja nele o dom da poesia. “Paterson”, o filme, observa os triunfos e derrotas da vida diária com poesia evidente nos menores detalhes.

9. Sonhando Acordado (2006) – Dir. Michel Gondry

Stephane Miroux (Gael García Bernal) vê seus sonhos invadirem constantemente a vida real. Quando dorme, se transforma no carismático apresentador do programa ?Stephane TV?, explicando sua ?ciência dos sonhos? na frente das câmeras de papelão. Na vida real, tem um trabalho chato numa editora de calendários em Paris. Ele flerta com a vizinha Stephanie (Charlotte Gainsbourg), mas a moça não está disposta a encarar alguém como ele. Guy (Alain Chabat), colega de trabalho de Stephane, até tenta ajudá-lo na conquista, mas nada funciona. Incapaz de chegar ao coração de Stephanie na vida real, Stephane procurará as respostas em seus sonhos.

10. O Fim da Turnê (2015) – Dir. James Ponsoldt

O filme mostra a entrevista de cinco dias do jornalista David Lipsky com o aclamado escritor David Foster Wallace, que aconteceu em 1996, durante a turnê de lançamento do novo livro de Wallace, “Infinite Jest”.

A journey through day 2 and 3 of Primavera Sound 2018

Julian Vazquez

June 5, 2018

This article has been translated from Spanish, read the original version here.

Year after year Primavera Sound starts the European festival season off strong and their stellar lineups never seem to disappoint fans.

Their lineup is so well crafted, making it worthwhile to discover the artists that have a smaller print on the poster. In order to do this, we have to take a look outside of the 2 main stages and this is how we discovered Cari Cari at the Night Pro Stage on day 2 of the festival. Taking on the same format as the White Stripes, Alexander Köck is on guitar and vocals and Stephanie Widmer on the drums. The band transported us through the linear roads of the American dessert, with their perfect rock n’ roll. It's worth checking out their latest single: Nothing’s Older than Yesterday.

We started the day off with Kim Deal of the Pixies and her band The Breeders. It has been awhile since Kim has stepped on stage but it's evident that we all fell in love with her again after that unforgettable set. It inevitable that through the show The Breeders put on, the energy of the Pixies is still present and was felt through the crowd, even more so, when they played Gigantic.

One of the most anticipated acts of day 2 was most definitely Charlotte Gainsbourg on the Apple Music stage. Her presence on the big screen and on the red carpets has always been more common than an appearance on stage. Charlotte played all of her hits during the first half of her set getting the audience excited and moving. We love you Charlotte, and you don’t need to do that, however, we can assure you that you ratified our love for you on Friday night.

We had to skip over Haim to see Cigarettes After Sex, this is one of the problems festival goers had to face due to the programming of the festival. Dancing until dawn was present at the Mango stage and on the other side was the Ray-Ban stage gifting us a trip in which it is possible to detach from the gravity of the earth and float by an intimate atmosphere of sound.

We started the last day off with a local artist, and it's important to note that at just 21, Núria Graham is a musical force that will for sure be taking her career to an international level in the coming months. If we’re talking about talented youth and unprejudiced talents, it is evident to take an early visit to the Heineken Hidden Stage to see what the Norwich based girl band Let’s Eat Grandma had to offer. There is plenty of talent in these girls and they have the strength to mix with the best of today's music scene. Their second full-length album I’m All Ears will be out on June 29th, be sure to keep an eye out for this one.

All were still eager to continue dancing so Lykke Li was the ideal proposal coming from a slightly more mainstream place, but at the same time still on the same musical line. Lykke played a 1-hour set riddled with hits and sex appeal.

It was about time to give ourselves time for some indie rock, and the answer was on the Ray-Ban Stage, Grizzly Bear. Continuing was Deerhunter, on the same stage a few moments later. Later that night, Arctic Monkeys took the main stage and made their festival debut. They opened up their set with Four Out of Five a track off their new album, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. The Monkeys took festival goers on a journey through their entire discography, they played fan favorites, some oldies, and a few from their new record.

What we were really waiting for the entire day was for 2 a.m. to arrive, like it does every night but just that this time around we would get to share it with the founding fathers of dream pop: Beach House. Victoria Legrand's stage presence is an irresistible force, and she’s an enigmatic and charming character. Her glam/disco wardrobe and her eye makeup that could have been mistaken for sunglasses reinforced this presence. Thus, they took us out for a final walk through Primavera with their brand new record 7 also bringing a few of their classics to the spotlight.

Primavera Sound left us with another edition confirming it to be one of the world's best festivals. Today we’ll start like every other year to wait anxiously for the date in which the lineup will be announced for the next edition.

See you next year Primavera!
