Not my cuppa chai. But I'll take advantage of the girl talk to write about a movie I watched again last night. Its relevance is that it may be the most erotic movie on my shelves. The film is called The Dreamers in English, and Innocents in French, and it's by Bernardo Berto- lucci. Bertolucci is known for his love of beauty in his actors, and he often finds these beauties first. Think Maria Schneider in Last Tango In Paris or Liv Tyler in Stealing Beauty. In The Dreamers Bertolucci had the inestimable good karma to introduce to the world Eva Green. Daughter of a French movie star who I always liked, Marlene Jobert, she inherited her mother's looks and then some. You may have seen her as a Bond girl, the most intelligent yet of the Bond girls, and the first match for him in any of the films. Or as Sybilla in Ridley Scott's Kingdom Of Heaven. Before that, at 23, she was in The Dreamers. Berto- lucci describes her as "so beautiful it's indecent." That pretty much nails it. And in The Dreamers you get to see pretty much every inch of her. There is a possibility that Eva Green is the most beautiful woman on the planet. The movie itself is a film buff's delight. The 3 characters in its menage à trois are film freaks at the time of the Cinematèque riots in Paris in 1968. It's full of film in-jokes and trivia questions, and is obviously Bertolucci's homage to having been there himself; that's where and when he learned to make movies. The plot is a little odd, but really WHO CARES what the plot is about? It's a film that has Eva Green naked in it, for long, extended periods of time. There is a scene where she dresses up as Michelangelo's Venus de Milo. And puts her in the shade. I'll see your Chinese girl and raise you Eva Green. :-)
