Le Temps retrouvé, Raúl Ruiz, 1999
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.

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.
