Hubert Rarepair Week Day 2: Rendezvous, Sylvain/Hubert

Summary:

"You won’t get the chance to say my name for a while, you know,” Sylvain said, now sliding his hand up and down Hubert’s inner thigh. “Would you just—” Sylvain kissed behind Hubert’s ear. “Say it again.” A growl of annoyance rumbled through Hubert’s chest. “Sylvain,” he said flatly. He tried to press back against Sylvain pointedly, but Sylvain held him in place. “Again."

My first NSFW posted to this account. Includes Sylvain and trans Hubert hooking up. Please mind the tags, I know it's not the kind of fic my followers are used to from me ^^;

Only one more day to go and I'll have finished another Hubert Rarepair week!!

One Dress a Day Challenge

October: Black Redux

Chinatown / Faye Dunaway as Evelyn Mulwray

This is quite an attractive dress, but between the dim lighting and the fact that Evelyn is mostly in close-up shots in the scenes where it appears, we only really get a glimpse of it onscreen. Luckily, it has been auctioned, so we have some very good display photos. Here's the description from the auction site: "Black silk jersey day dress, fitted bodice, short sleeves, panels with hand fagoting; ankle-length skirt ornamented with self covered buttons; self covered belt with black and grey enameled buckle."

Evelyn wears the dress with a pearl necklace, a pair of gold bracelets, and a watch. I've included a close-up of the belt buckle. You can also see how the white trim is attached with a spiraling stitch in gold.

Nighthawks (1981)

My rating: 5/10

Competently, even well-made, but man, the copaganda in this - there is actually a scene in this movie where the mentor figure outright states that the NYPD(!) isn't heavily armed or trigger happy enough. Yeesh.

15/11/2024 - Project Research

Today I decided to go to the library and check out some books on fashion and costume design, as this is where my project is leaning towards. I am very interested in the many designs that can come from different fashion designers and how they vary so much in style.

I checked out the book; "Hollywood Sketchbook - A century of costume illustration" by Deborah Nadoolman Landis. This book focuses on outfits designed for and worn by Hollywood stars. Here are a few of the designs that I really liked.

This is Anthea Sylbert's design from 1937 for Pauline Annon. I love the simplicity of the design, yet it's still strikingly beautiful. It's also modest, and the use of all black creates this drama, as it's such a contrast to the bright red flowers.

These sketches are extremely dramatic, and equally as beautiful.

The light, flowing ruffles create such a beautiful texture in the first drawing. It is the costume design, by Travis Banton, for Ginger Rogers as 'Dolly Payne Madison' in the movie, Magnificent Doll.

The second is chic and elegant, with such a striking colour of bright red, and the sweeping sheer red train with sparkly fur red trim. This was designed by Donfeld for Bette Davis 1964 for the movie Dead Ringer.

The last outfit is more of a theatre outfit, made to grab the attention of the viewer, it was worn by Marlene Dietrich as Helen Faraday in the Paramount film Blonde Venus, 1932.

Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (Milos Forman, 1975)

Cast: Jack Nicholson, Louise Fletcher, Will Sampson, William Redfield, Brad Dourif, Sydney Lassick, Christopher Lloyd, Danny DeVito, Vincent Schiavelli, Scatman Crothers. Screenplay: Laurence Hauben, Bo Goldman, based on a novel by Ken Kesey. Cinematography: Haskell Wexler. Production design: Paul Sylbert. Film editing: Sheldon Kahn, Lynzee Klingman. Music: Jack Nitzsche.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is beginning to show its age, as any 48-year-old movie must. It no longer exhibits the freshness that won it acclaim as a masterpiece and raked in the five "major" Academy Awards: picture, director, actor, actress, and screenplay -- only the second picture in history to do that: The first was It Happened One Night (Frank Capra, 1934), and only one other picture, The Silence of the Lambs (Jonathan Demme, 1991), has subsequently accomplished that feat. Today, however, One Flew has the look of a skillfully directed but somewhat predictable melodrama; its tragic edge has been blunted by familiarity. In treating the material, director Forman goes for straightforward storytelling, without showing us something new or personal as an auteur. And as time has passed, some of the elements of the source, Ken Kesey's novel, that screenwriters Laurence Hauben and Bo Goldman took pains to mitigate -- namely the countercultural glibness and antifeminism -- have begun to show through. It's harder today to wholeheartedly cheer on the raw, anarchic antiauthoritarianism of McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) or to accept as a given the unmitigated villainy of Nurse Ratched (Louise Fletcher). We want our protagonists and antagonists to be a little more complicated than the film allows them to be. There are still many who think it a great film, but if it is, I think it's largely because it's the perfect showcase for a great talent -- Nicholson's -- supported by an extraordinary ensemble that includes a shockingly young-looking Danny DeVito, Scatman Crothers, Sydney Lassick, Christopher Lloyd, Will Sampson, and a touchingly vulnerable Brad Dourif.
