dirty pretty things


Stephen Frears

Its about foreginers living in London.I'd say its mainly a love story between Okwe who's from Nigera
and Shenay who played by Audrey Tatou who's meant to be a Turkish girl. 
Her role is deep but also magical like all her other roles.
The title is completely fitting as the oxymoron perfectly describes the things that happen.
My favourite thing about the film was how all different ethnicity's and people from different walks of life stuck together and helped on another out.It is a modern day fairy tale with a questionable happy ending.
Really unusual storyline.

i'd seen the trailer for it during youth in revolt and i saw a friend when i was going into the cinema who said it was really good.

i found it terrifying.
george harvey (stanley tucci) was beyond scary,his acting was amazing and i will be left with nightmares for weeks.
it had such an unusual narrative and made you question and awful lot of things to do with life,it was also a nice fresh take on death.
it is orginally a book which i have been told to read so id like to see how it on paper as i think it be hard.
there wasnt a moment when i wasnt on the edge of my seat it was truly gripping.
there was an awful lot of windows in to to emphasis that susie is trapped and that we are looking at some ones view on life.also harvey making doll houses was like a metaphor for him being god in his victims lifes.goes to show he isnt something to worship but something to loath for taking their life.
there was an awful lot of refrences to hobbies it was unture and i personally think it was to say we are given gifts (talents) and its how we use them that matters.
for example her dad and the boats and when he teaches her he says this something that will last for ever and although he breaks them all,apart form theres its a metaphor to say there bond cant be broken.
as for harveys hobby of buliding things it goes to show how it hasnt been put to good use and how dangerous it is,its a sign to say we should embrace it.
although it was extremely deep and moving i do think it dragged on and some parts were unnecessary, i did and i didnt like it.however that is life i suppose.

a case of the mean reds




my boyfriend bought me this beautiful book called
'audrey style'
he thought it was about audrey tatou but i still cant get over what a thoughtful gesture
ive always admired the doe eyed princess but i didnt really know that much about her.
her relationship with hubert de givenchy filled me with envy and happiness,the pairing of two people could not have been better.
as for Edith Head getting all the credit on Roman Holiday really pissed me.
she had such a patterned life its unbelieveable being a baroness's daughter in Holland during the war and not eating anything apart from water and bread until after the war is heart breaking.
its got to be said im so glad she didnt become a ballerina.
she truly is capurtaviteing.

'some people dream of having a big swimming pool-with me,its closets'-A.H

its unbelieveable how many people rip of her style, victoria beckham for one. however theres no way on this earth she has the grace of what that lady had.
and the whole dog thing (famous) has just been copied to death by the scummy likes of paris.
i wish i had a scanner to print all the beautiful pictures on too.

i know this is crimminal to admit i have only ever seen 1/4 of Breakfast at Tiffanys!
so im making it my goal to watch:
1.Roman Holiday-which made her famous, and her first collabertion with givenhcy
2.funny faces-i need to see her dance with fred
3.sabrina-the famous white and black beaded gown (giv.)
4.breakfast at tiffanys- obvious reasons
