Amelie inspirations {movie decor}

  
Paul Johnson's poster art
Whimsical, funny and cute - Amelie touches our hearts, makes us sigh and smile :) A must watch, if you haven't already! I also love the deep red, green and gorgeous interiors. Oh, I miss Paris! For this is parisian life at it's leisurely pace, a sweet music in our ears... a cute story set in a very cute city that I loved living so close to, dearly. 

Amelie quotes and trivia:
The main colors in the film (green, yellow and red) are inspired by the paintings of the Brazilian artist Jurez Machado.


Some of the locations in the film can be found in Montmartre. The café "Les 2 Moulins" can be found at the beginning of Rue Lepic and the vegetable/fruit store "Collignon" at 56 Rue des Trois Frères.


Narrator: "Amelie has one friend, Blubber. Alas the home environment has made Blubber suicidal. 
[Pet fish leaps out of fish bowl in an attempt at suicide] "


Amelie : [whispering in theater] I like to look for things no one else catches. I hate the way drivers never look at the road in old American movies. 


Amelie: [to her father, who is not paying attention] I had two heart attacks, an abortion, did crack... while I was pregnant. Other than that, I'm fine. 




I love these following wedding inspiration ideas! Aren't these lovely!?

Think Some. Do Some.



Thinking about Earth and our impact on it. Just like that. No reason really. But because I should. Everyone should. Are you???
What do you do to make a difference?
How much does it matter to you?

Movie Decor {Dev D}

When movies meet design, their is a certain magic that happens... not every movie will transport you in a place so perfectly true to their vision. But then again this is a movie which is almost perfectly made. It's one of those cult movies... a perfect adaptation, a script so flawless, it's beautiful, the characters so finely carved - it would be any actors dream. Abhay Deol is so awesome and everything about the movie just works. It's got one of the most shocking first scenes I have seen in a movie, especially for an Indian audience. If you haven't seen it, dude.. get it now... 
That brings me to the sets and design of the movie. Everything fit in so well, but I especially like the dark, glitzy pad of chanda, which is just so charming in its own way, and Dev's psychedelic, bohemian sense of being is matched with equally engaging backdrops. 
I hope you enjoy the visual journey, I love this movie! :) Thanks to Anurag Kashyap for making this masterpiece.
