Vita & Virginia (2018)

Yesterday, I rewatched 'Vita & Virginia,' and I must say, I didn't remember loving it so much the first time.

The film beautifully portrays the passionate and forbidden love story between two of the greatest female writers of their time, Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West.

It's a must-watch, whether you're a fan of these two remarkable women or not.

Okay, I know I was a lousy writer just uploading a fanfic (I had a lot of personal problems. A lot of growing up for this little adult that I am), but I'm going to try to write something here at the university.... And I remember I promised you guys a "Vita & Virginia" fanfic.

What topics would you like me to write about in a Vita & Virginia fanfic?

Notes: Not all of the films on this non-exhaustive list are entirely “about” the lives of their respective writers to a tee. I cannot vouch for the accuracy or quality of all of these movies. I’ve only seen about 75% of these films personally. And yes, I know this list is very Westernized – I’m working on it.

This one frame is the only good thing about Vita & Virginia (2018). Clunky script. Not believable. No chemistry. Avoid.

Hello precious people. I have a doubt.

I was talking to a friend of mine who I FORCED to watch "Vita & Virginia" and we were thinking about writing a little fanfic, but I don't know, I'm not so sure. What do you think?

Anyway, I'm finishing writing Therese's fanfic.

#metadata' presenta i nuovi dipinti, le sculture e le intallazioni dell'artista Ryan McGinness. ​Nei dipinti sono raffigurate scene del suo studio, inclusi oggetti, disegni preparatori, barattoli di vernici e tutta quella moltitudine di oggetti tipici dello studio di un artista. Le sculture reinterpretano la funzione degli attrezzi da lavoro e degli scarti della produzione artistica. Le installazioni decontestualizzano i dipinti e danno vita a un ambiente del tutto site-specific. In '#metadata'​ sono documentate anche alcune mostre di McGinness come quelle tenutesi al Deitch Projects di New York, alla Kohn Gallery di Los Angeles, alla Quint Gallery di San Diego, a La Casa Encendida di Madrid, alla Ron Mandos Gallery di Amsterdam, al Virginia Museum of Fine Arts e al Cranbrook Art Museum nel Michigan.

Ryan McGinness è un artista americano che vive e lavora a New York. Cresce tra la cultura surf e skate di Virginia Beach, in Virginia, e poi studia alla Carnegie Mellon University di Pittsburgh, in Pennsylvania, come borsista Andrew Carnegie. Durante il college fa praticantato all’Andy Warhol Museum come assistente curatoriale. Noto per il suo esteso vocabolario di originali disegni grafici che utilizzano il linguaggio visivo di insegne pubbliche, loghi aziendali e simbologia contemporanea, si riconosce a McGinness il credito di aver elevato lo status dell’icona ad arte grazie alla creazione dei suoi dipinti, sculture, installazioni e libri. Il New York Times scrive: “Nell’ultimo decennio, McGinness è diventato una stella dell’arte, grazie al suo mix warholiano di iconografia pop e serigrafia”. Vogue ha dichiarato: “Ryan McGinness è un eminente pioniere della nuova semiotica”. Le sue opere appaiono nelle collezioni pubbliche di istituzioni come Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, Cincinnati Art Museum, MUSAC in Spagna e Taguchi Art Collection in Giappone

9 people I would like to get to know better

Once again procrastinating on more important things by doing a long-overdue tag game! I was tagged by @telomeke (here), @wen-kexing-apologist (here), and @lurkingshan (here). Don't you love getting a tag from me months down the road?

last song: "All Those Years Ago" by George Harrison. I really love the instrumental performance in this.

favorite color: Tangerine, though I've been feeling darker oranges and greens lately

last movie/tv show:

Last movie: Vita & Virginia (2018) - wish I could say I liked this, but it was eminently okay.

Last TV show: Just watched a bit of Love for Love's Sake - this show is making me CRAZY!!!!

sweet/spicy/savory: I've been on a spicy kick lately!

relationship status: Single

current obsession: Self-sabotage? Not really anything? Which is weird. Been having a bad mental health spell which probably explains it. But I have been really enjoying Love for Love's Sake and Dead Friend Forever, for sure.

last thing I searched: Ori and the Blind Forest because @wen-kexing-apologist mentioned it in their post and I had no idea what it was. Also Great Men Academy because I wanted to watch an episode!

Not tagging anyone, do it if you'd like!

Pretty sure I have a thing for film shots that involve Character A longingly staring at character B as character B gazes off into the horizon.

Mogambo (1953)

(Ngl these two should have dated each other instead. The chemistry was there. We totally could have gotten a sapphic enemies to lovers romance)
