Camille Rowe: « I would have loved to act in Kill Bill »

« Clara Bow... Why do I have Clara Bow’s name in my head when I think about Camille Rowe ? » The author and journalist, Simon Liberati, tells us the story of how he met the French-American actress and model, Camille Rowe.

Because I’m an old man, and because of age, I mix up pre-war actress with today’s It girls. One hundred years later, no one knows the name of Clara Bow, the first it girl (the name was invented for her). Blonde with big blue eyes, she was the queen of Hollywood, she shared lovers with her enemy Marion Davies, the other blonde with big blue eyes, mistress of Randolph Hearst and a castle on the side of Lower Topanga, the Spiral Staircase where the Manson family lived. I think of those girls because Camille Rowe reminds me of Tarantino, she should film with him, it would suit her. 

In the meantime, Camille Rowe has just played a role in a choral film inspired by the work of Anna Gavalda: ‘I wish someone was waiting for me somewhere (j’aimerai que quelqu’un m’attende quelque part).’ A movie by Arnaud Viard, with Jean-Paul Rouve and Alice Taglioni. An hour and half long feature film. It’s a very moving film where you can see her with a beanie, red nose and wet eyes because she cries a lot. Some directors are really into giving roles of morose girls who are not really boring, but «Annagavaldian » which mean not really funny to models and it girls. 

I remember Abel Ferrara’s movie, ‘The Blackout’ where the poor Claudia Schiffer gave the line to Beatrice Dalle in a psycho-rigid version. At the time an article from France Dimanche or d’ici Paris kind of cruelly recounted Claudia’s troubles with Abel. 

I don't think the shooting of Arnaud Viard was that chaotic. Camille Rowe plays the role of Jean-Paul Rouve’s little sister, a frustrated theatre actor who became a wine merchant and soon committed suicide, who pays her, her fantasies of art photography. He lends her 10.000€ so she can do her project of the moment with Diane Arbus (she likes deformed people) all in Dijon. Then Jean-Paul Rouve dies of love for Elsa Zylleberstein (an actress who have cancer) and then Camille finds herself crying for a good forty minutes with the rest of the family (choral). 

When I was able to reach Camille Rowe on her cell phone while she was shooting with Jen Eymere for the cover of L'Officiel, the first question I was dying to ask her was: "What were you thinking about that was so sad that you could cry for 40 minutes over Jean-Paul Rouve's death?" "As it is a... melodrama, we often kept the first takes. So it wasn't hours of tears a day either. I was thinking about a traumatic event that happened to me, so I kept the after-effects long after the three weeks of shooting [sinister laugh]. I promised myself I'd never do it again. The worst thing is that in my life I'm the kind of person who cries easily..." 

Yet Camille Chrystal Pourcheresse, better known as Camille Rowe, is a French- American model and actress born on January 7, 1990. She is 30 years old. The beautiful age... Daughter of a prosperous restaurateur, she had, according to Wikipedia, a happy childhood "in a favoured district of the capital". When I went to look for her photos on the Internet, I told myself that I knew her face. Magnificent blue eyes spread apart, huge mouth, curious nose a bit too big, a bit wet, a bit charming (like Anatole France) sublime breasts, thin thighs... Californian style. Hair beach blond surf and warm sand... I know this face maybe from the Baron or Montana, from a Purple dinner or from the Cora cafeteria in Soissons (where I live), I didn't dare to ask her... When L'Officiel commissioned the portrait I'm trying to write, I didn't really feel like it, I was in a deplorable mood, retyping a book that was already more or less a failure, Prayers Answered, whose title I stole from Truman Capote who in exchange sent me a spell, but I always tell myself that things come from encounters, even furtive ones, ordered with a frame... a 10- minute interview on the phone can get me out of the slump. I'll call her at 1:00. 

The voice is really lovely. Not too charming, not manicured, not dragging, not grunge, but open ... She tells me that she's walking down the street to go to the shooting and I already regret having had the laziness to walk a hundred kilometres in traffic jams to meet her. I've heard many voices in sixty years, few so open... Nothing to do with the idea I had of her, coming from a mix of Wikipedia, articles by Elle and photographs by Terry Richardson where she was sticking her tongue out in an old Purple from ten years ago. I also have a 2018 César box set with ‘Rock'n'roll’ by Guillaume Canet but I have to admit that I forgot the content of this film except that Marion Cotillard is trying to learn the Canadian accent. Hence my second question ... I read (in Glamour? in Elle? in the UGC press kit?) that Camille Rowe had a hard time losing her French-American accent to play a choral film. 

the banks of the Saône. It's true that we can't imagine Jean-Paul Rouve's sister speaking with the accent of Laurel Canyon and Linda Hardy.

- “It's not a question of accent but of intonation. It comes out when I'm speaking in a group, when I'm expressing emotions... At first, it didn't really fit with Dijon.” 

- “I can assure you that you can't hear anything...”

- “Thank you [happy laugh], that means I've done a good job so.”

 - “Did you like Dijon?”

 - “Yes, I loved it. There's a lot of wineries there. My boyfriend and I went for a walk and tasted some good wines.”

It's true that she doesn't look like she's sucking ice cream. Not a drunk, no... but a well-to-do person, as they say in the press. The blur in the eyes, the wet nose and the infectious laughter can make you think that... Kind of like Romy Schneider. The comparison is not infamous. Clara Bow didn't spit on a drink either... The stupid question now that I've stolen from an old issue of Miss Tender-Aged... 

- “Camille, ideally, what role would you have liked to play in the cinema?” 

- “The movie I really would have liked to play in is Kill Bill.”

I was right to think of Tarantino, Camille Rowe has a Margot Robbie side to her as Sharon Tate... Something joyful, Californian, uncomplicated and a little attracted by evil at the same time... 

- “In the film, you photograph deformed people. In life are you a fan of Diane Arbus?” 

- “As for art, I prefer painting. I am not a fan of photography. On the other hand, I like horror films... Otherwise, I'm quite interested in serial killers...”

An opening? I don't believe it. I read (on Wikipedia?) that she likes old David Cronenberg... So we quote some movies... If I had come instead of phoning her, I could have told her that I spent several evenings with Cronenberg in Geneva in November (his daughter is a photographer too) and that he has a great sound system on his iPhone that allows him to listen to or zap people depending on whether they are sitting in front of him, on the left or on the right... 

- “You'll never guess what they're doing to my makeup while I'm talking to you... They're scraping scabs off my nose.”

That girl is really charming... Rowe power... Only good-looking people talk about this kind of stuff. 

- “Do you have plans?”

- “Yes, a Canadian sci-fi film... And an English film...”

- “Your first role? - When I was 12 at school in Edmond Rostand's Chantecler, I played a chicken... A mean chicken. I liked that [sinister laugh].”

Rowe-power got a magic touch.

Filter: Good or bad?

Filter is one of the most used features on online photo sharing tools such as Instagram, Snapchat... The filter's diverse effect store allows users to "transform" in a blink of an eye with just a few simple operation.

From mid-2019 until now, the AR filter feature has also begun to bloom, which is considered an upgraded version from the normal filter. AR filters are effects designed to add a layer to real-life images. With AR filter, users can not only improve their beauty but also design their own games and share them with friends.

During the Covid-19 epidemic season, AR filter has become a useful tool of the advertising industry. Dior entered the game by experimenting with virtual makeup software. Their representative affirmed that "this is the future of cosmetics". And Snapchat offers filters to recommend products of L'Oréal, EasyJet or Nike. Now, users can try on "virtual outfits" from top brands to get the perfect picture without having to go out, and manufacturers can also collect customer information effectively.

However, recently, Spark AR - the company that owns the photo filters released on the Instagram application announced that the platform will remove "all effects related to plastic surgery" from the Gallery. Effects as well as defer approval of any new effects that may be of the type. This does not mean that you will have to say goodbye forever to the lovely puppy, flower, and butterfly effects you are using. Spark AR only targets filters with functions that transform your face according to a formula of pointed chin, bridge of the nose and high cheekbones (Plastica) or even like Fix Me that indicates areas you need to be corrected.

This isn't the first time Instagram has done so in an attempt to demonstrate its commitment to the mental health of its users. Previously, this social network also restricted advertising posts of weight loss products or plastic surgery procedures. Because in 2017 there was research showing that a large number of posts about these procedures are not made by professionals. Therefore, without measures to control the quality of news sources, Instagram will indirectly "abet" the spread of false information affecting users' health.

A report in the medical journal JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery claims that images using filters have "blurred the line between reality and fantasy", which can cause Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD). ). This is a mental illness that makes sufferers obsess about their body's defects, prompting them to do everything to overcome it, whether it's fasting, weight pressure or cutlery intervention. Therefore, Instagram also has good reason to be concerned about this fact. And from the user's perspective, we also have a reason to rethink the interaction behavior on the network so far.

Beyond Stars - fourth and final batch of works I made for the @L'officiel Lithuania October edition. Vitrinos - this was the first piece we worked on, it was a two page spread and depicted the more runned down but high fashion part of the city. This one really set a general mood for the whole project. I loved it even more the first time I saw it printed. Museum - this piece was more about the city than the model. We wanted to make at least one design where you can feel the cyberpunk city setting really well and the whole museum concept really played well with the more high fashion part of the project. Again this was an absolutelly amazing experience and a big thank for everyone who supported me throughout the whole process. A huge shoutout to the entire team that worked on this, you guys killed it: @nerijusirgintare @migledu @jjukne @gytis_grg @gretazvinklyte @arturasnumsedis @aliona_saliute 💙 #vilniusofficial #vilniusofficial #visualcreators #vilniusgram #vilnius🇱🇹 #vilniausmiestas #lithuania🇱🇹 #lithuaniahq #lithuania_pics #digital_art #photoshopping #photoshop #photoshopediting #manipulationedit #manipulations #cyberfuturepunk #cyberpunkedit #cyberart #cyberart #cyberpunkbeauties #cyberpunktheme #cyberpunkcities #futurism #futuretechnology #photoshootideas #photoshopediting (at Vilnius, Lithuania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWNzaFVsalS/?utm_medium=tumblr
