He is now extending his reach into advertising, with the recent announcement that he'll be directing the latest in the Lady Dior perfume campaign ads. These are similar to the Chanel No. 5 ads (featuring Nicole Kidman - please stop hating her) as directed by my beloved Baz Luhrmann in that there is a story - told in 30 second bites - that is continued through both the print campaign and future ads. The first in the Lady Dior series was directed by Oliver Dahan and featuring Marion Cotillard: the latest French-faced - and French, natch - film-darling after appearing with Johnny Depp in Public Enemies and backing it up with a performance (which I'm yet to see) in Nine - but basically she's made it. She's appeared with pretty much anyone who's anyone in Hollywood in those films alone, and she of course won an Oscar for her performance in La Vie en Rose - the Edith Piaf biopic a few years back. And, of course, she's a Fashion Icon which has put her in the stratosphere. And, duh! She's gorgeous and languid. And wearing Chanel (um.. and Dior perfume). Everything we women wish we could be.
Damn. This was meant to be about David Lynch. Just wiki him if you need to know more. I'm spent. :o)
Oh yeh. I was meant to say David Lynch picks up where Oliver left off in the secret-agent story of Lady Dior. Part II if you will.
