ARTISTE – AUTRICE
For the On International Women’s Day, I left a few words in an envelope at a photo exhibition dedicated to the artist Marilyn Monroe at the Saint Cyprien collections. Each participant was invited to compose few verses for this very important day; here are the few lines I wrote :
For everyone, my body, my choice is one of the battles you fought so hard for. For all the victories and obstacles encountered, I encourage you in all your progress.
As part of the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia, I participated in the film debate about the documentary Casa Susanna at the Thuir library.
Here is a link to the documentary’s page.
This Thursday is also World Environment Day. Personally, I’m using insulated bottles more and more than plastic ones; there are some efforts like that that are possible. I also avoid blisters (plastic sleeves) on magazines.
The classics of Hollywood cinema influenced the writing of my fiction Duel à Albi.
In the story, I refer to several films such as:
– Morocco
– The Devil’s Garden
– Friendly persuasion
The script of some films is inspired by literature.
– For Whom the Bell Tolls based on Ernest Hemingway’s novel
– Peter Ibbetson based on the novel by George Dumaurier
I chose evocative titles in line with the sassy tone of the dialogue. They thus participate in creating the fantastic dimension in which I wanted to immerse my short story and the public.
For the documentation part, I made an appointment at a film library to read some extracts from books which gave me some information.
Thank you to the film libray Jean Vigo.
