MILDRED PIERCE - LA GRANDE DEPRESSION - KATE WINSLET - HBO

GLENDALE, CA 1931






















En mars 2011, la chaîne américaine HBO proposera une mini série en 5 épisodes : Mildred Pierce. Inspirée du roman de James M. Cain, Mildried Pierce raconte la vie d’une mère de famille de la classe moyenne du Los Angeles des années 1930 qui essaie de maintenir la position sociale des siens confrontés à la Grande Dépression. Une adaptation cinématographique de ce roman à succès est devenu un classique des films noirs du début des années 40. Dans le rôle titre excellait l’inoubliable Joan Crawford. C’est l’actrice déjà oscarisée Kate Winslet que la chaîne HBO a choisie pour interpréter ce personnage complexe aux rapports difficiles avec sa fille.
Après le régal de la première saison de Boardwalk Empire récemment diffusé sur HBO, en se fiant au casting de choix entourant Kate Winslet et à la vue des premiers trailers proposés par la chaîne, Mildred Pierce promet d’être une mini série d’époque d’une qualité une nouvelle fois exceptionnelle.

The Red and The Black
Stendhal

Chapter Eleven
An Evening

Yet Julia's very coldness still was kind,
And tremulously gentle her small hand
Withdrew itself from his, but left behind
A little pressure, thrilling and so bland
And Slight, so very slight that to the mind
"Twas but a doubt.

GOSHA RUBCHINSKIY - FASHION DESIGNER - PHOTOGRAPHER AND FILMMAKER

Moscow and the surrounding subcultures, Rubchinskiy creates more than fashion. Going further than a label, his work is a totality, where orthodoxy meets black metal, sports and skateboard culture; a "gesamtkunstwerk" involving casting photography, design and artistic direction. Rubchinskiy is one of the emerging multitasking creative talents of Europe, but he is still is an exception in his Russian homeland. The label express the unrelayed voice of a youth that has re-appropriated Western culture in a very exclusive and peculiar Russian way. German art and fashion cult magazine 032c invited Gosha Rubchinskiy to show a sort of retrospective of his work in their Berlin gallery, and even though the designer doesn't like the idea of a 'retrospective', it is quite the case. Dazed Digital talked to Gosha Rubchinskiy about his teenage years in Russia, his vision of fashion and some possible future developments.

MUSIC HUNTERS - DEREK WATSON & ISABEL IBSEN - 'HUNTERS' EP - 2011

While they have the credentials to hide behind, Hunters doesn't need them. "Deadbeat" is a bass-lead romp through New York City basement noise to Olympia-approved grunge, catchy boy/girl tribal vocals and heavy on the feedback. Produced by former Smashing Pumpkin James Iha and mixed by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Nick Zinner, it does right by its proud papas. Combing forces with Montreal's Dead Wife, the track can be found on their split 7-inch, part of a fantastic series released by Swill Children.
