Added scans of recent magazine features about the new Lady Dior short movie by David Lynch. We learn that it was shot in just 2 days, that David Lynch admires Marion’s talent and professionalism as well as her beauty & style and that Marion thinks David is a genius.

Here’s an English article focusing on David Lynch’s involvement:

She has got that modern quality and old quality that I think the great ones have always.
- David Lynch about Marion Cotillard

Marion also mentions her documentary project about de- and reforestation. She’s still writing it and meeting people to educate herself. Also her recent musical collaboration with Yodelice (I will update on that soon, if I get a moment) is the result of a long standing friendship. Whenever they used to get together they’d make music. Last but not least, she’s enjoying the current absence from the limelight as she’d been garnering a lot of attention lately.

Ahead of Saturday’s release of the new Lady Dior short movie set in Shanghai (and related publicity for that) some additional pictures of the campaign’s first chapter – set in Paris. At the time there was an article about the Print Ads shot by Peter Lindbergh in Madame Figaro. And a bit later some photographers spotted Marion Cotillard and Olivier Dahan in the streets of Paris on the set of the short movie Lady Noire Affair.

Be sure to visit LadyDior.com for yet another clip ahead of the May 15 release of the full David Lynch-directed Lady Blue short film.

It features the full footage of Marion Cotillard reciting the poem ‘It holds the love‘ as well as some blurry preview scenes and the full credits. And are those the red curtains (around 4 minutes into the video) Marion referred to in the Another interview (quoted here)?

As always some good quality screencaptures can be found in the gallery:

Why Shanghai and why the Pearl Tower?
John Galliano: In each city we chose an iconic location that not only was very symbolic of the city, but also mirrored the Dior canage technique that defines the Lady Dior bag itself. In the David Lynch film Marion is reciting a poem that he wrote, and was inspired by the Pearl Tower itself – the words and building fuse in the picture he paints on screen. Shanghai is such a vibrant and inspiring city – plus it’s where we will be staging our Cruise 2010 collection. I wanted to pick cities that had a link with Dior, as well as a link with style… Dior is global what better way than these collaborations to show it!

I added a second brief clip which serves as a preview and making of for the forthcoming David Lynch-directed Lady Dior short movie. Also replaced the previous screencaptures with bigger ones.

So far, I haven’t seen a proper teaser for the upcoming short film – could the new Making Of have been said Teaser? Staying tuned!

LadyDior.com added a lovely behind the scenes video to their website. We get a glimpse of what the Steven Klein photoshoot in Shanghai was like. Marion Cotillard stars as Lady Blue in the 3rd chapter of the Lady Dior campaign.
