#time regained

Losing one's way is nothing; the problem is finding it again.

from In Search of Lost Time, Book 3: The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust

[lovequotesandcoffee]

Every reader, as he reads, is actually the reader of himself. The writer's work is only a kind of optical instrument he provides the reader so he can discern what he might never have seen in himself without this book. The reader's recognition in himself of what the book says is the proof of the book's truth.

Le Temps retrouvé. Raúl Ruiz. 1999

Recíén terminada de leer En Busca del Tiempo Perdido, un proyecto al que le tenía terror, pero ha sido una experiencia única y vital. Genio, Proust.

Después de terminar la última novela de la serie, he visto la película de Raoul Ruiz en la que está basada, y no me podía creer que algo así pudiera ser llevado al cine, pero sí, Raoul Ruiz consigue comprimir en estos 162 minutos toda la serie, absolutamente esencial en el sentido de que recorre todos los momentos realmente importantes, con elipsis y movimientos de cámara que de alguna forma logran transmitir ese estilo de largas frases de Marcel Proust. Impresionada estoy por lo absolutamente perfecta que es. Claro, quizás el haberme leído las novelas me hace estar mucho más conectada al trabajo de Ruiz, pero así y todo es una obra maestrísima.

One Dress a Day Challenge

January: Red Redux

Marcel Proust's Time Regained (Le temps retrouvé, d'après l'oeuvre de Marcel Proust) / Emmanuelle Béart as Gilberte

This gorgeous dress is one of @coeli1000's finds. I love the asymmetrical beaded design, with each shoulder being slightly different. The multilayered, drapey effect of the skirt is also interesting, leading to the whole garment looking unified and yet full of variety.

I also appreciate how they've made an effort to give her at least somewhat period-style makeup. The darkening around the eyes and the bold color of the lipstick make her look like a silent film star. Just look at a black-and-white version (below) and you'll see what I mean.

And that beaded turban is quite something! I wonder if the traditional headdresses for the mimas (priestesses) in Carnival Row were based on this sort of turban, possibly even inspired by this movie.

one of my favourite things with raúl ruiz's time regained is the scene where marcel leaves the party and we can hear in the background the poem "souvenir" d'alfred de musset.

because it starts with, not the first strophe but with the second and which is followed immediatly by the eleventh.

and they're so fitting with what will just happen on screen.

marcel, who was afraid of dying and who saw people he loved die, leaves peacefully the party, not afraid anymore but confident in his faith. i also love how the poem fits what he said at the start of the movie, how thing that tourmented him at a moment, are unimportant now. he leaves his past troubles to meet himself, past and future (or real version of himself ?).

Dc x Dp Prompt #6

“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.

“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.

“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.

“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.

“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”

“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.

“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

abstract (psychopomp) by hozier is definitely one of my most favourite songs ever written, but I can’t listen to it without having a complete emotional meltdown. like. the rawness and the pure humanity in those lyrics. the love and the pain, the choiceless devotion to something fleeting, which you know won’t make it through the night, but to something you feel for, with, nonetheless. something you, as a Human, have no choice but to love.

it’s just simply a lyrical and emotional masterpiece and I’ve been extremely normal about it for more than a year now.

My less popular opinion (and what I believe to be implied by the art in Lost Days) is that rather than waking up in a fully grown body Jason didn’t actually complete his puberty until after his Lazarus pit dip while he was on his murder tour. Imagine you’re tied up in a basement in Berlin getting interrogated by a teenager and his voice is cracking the entire time and if you laugh he’s going to shoot you

Dp x dc idea 149

Vlad and Danny are in a ghost fight. Vlad hits him with an attack forcing him human.

Just then a portal opens. Vlads attack continues and they both crash through the portal. Danny crashing into the floor in the center of a Wayne gala.

To everyone else they see a wannabe vampire look alike just attacking a random black hair blue eyed teen. Forcing him through a portal.
