2 a.m. and all I can think of is immersing myself in a little Godard, why this occurs to me at 2 a.m. in the freaking morning when I have to wake up in 4 hours is beyond me but there it is; Contempt-must watch soon.
It speaks to my recent turn towards cynicism and it’s an excuse to see amazing architecture on film and simply ESCAPE…
Contempt or (Le MĂ©pris) is sizzling hot on many levels-there’s Bardot and the Isle of Capri, and of course Villa Malaparte, an incredibly sexy retreat, complete with a fireplace looking out towards the ocean, a red exclamation mark in fluid fields of blues. Defiant and delightfully uncompromising…traits equally alluring in men.
