A visit to a most beautiful French public art park.  ****

What I saw, text will follow later after the opening of 19th May 2021; some of my favorite rooms of all times are the music salon and the billiard room.  There are small "folie" type buildings outside on the park ground.  With an underground ice block keeper - for sorbets, and a small chapel.  Plus a beautifully restored potager - vegetable garden - kept in perfect form by volunteers.  See the fine precious bell cloche to protect the plants?  Mini green house.  Exactly what the rose with spikes in the  Little Prince wanted for him/herself.   The Art of Gardening and fine living of the Impressionists, and Post impressionist times.  

Highly recommended.

New Love Story : with a handsome smart young man and beautiful smart young woman

 Somebody asked, what kind of new character for a sexy gd looking smart young man?

I think, to have new love story, you have to also have a new kind of context.

To have a new character, you need new stories, new type of heroine as well. New style, new relationships between man and women, new way of courting, erotiscism, pace, rhythm, settings, humour. We have to consider what is the new sexy? Is it muscles?

or is it brain power? etc etc

Muscles are always attractive, and beautiful. But only this, is not enough. When I look at Michael Jackson, even at home, even in his own studio a bit tired, he dances like liquid mercury, it just flows, so fluid so elegant. Is this the only way to be sexy, no. The current James Bond, is slightly thuggish looking. But he is not only physically powerful but intellectually smart, there is something not just outwardly seductive. Each person has that little something in them, how to make a love story outstandingly memorable?

There are many french movies which treats multiple types of love stories, relationships, because their conception of love seems to be a subject of unlimited research creation. So many stories in movies and in real life. Maybe in real life is even more interesting than the compressed dramatic tales in movies with very beautiful stars, always. You need a beautiful star, because movie making is a big production, big investment commercial affair.

An example of a new type of love story:

A lady friend told me, how her ex husband who is divorced from her still hangs around, she smiled and said, but dont just consider at the way he looks - far from the handsome type - a lot of women like him. I said, "yes?", she said, "he has a lot of playmates", I said "yes? umm, where does he find them?", "Oh, at work." "Oh". "Its because, she smiled, he is very gentle and soft. And he knows how to cook."

Now, if you have a new character, handsome and soft and gentle and knows how to cook, well, thats definitely a new type.

True new stories are everywhere, but what kind of story would make a good movie, that somebody would want to watch?

How to make this type of tale a memorable love story and subject of a good movie ?

Would it be irritating for women to see this kind of story? And men, hmm, what do they think? Would they pay to go see such a movie?

"Sculpting in time" and "The sound of no music"

"Sculpting in time" and "The sound of no music"

Both these titles are very attractive seeds, I imagine them both leading to something fruitful.

How do you "Sculpt in time"?  This is a book on cinema by Tarkovsky and "The sound of no music" is a film review.

Sculpt in time means to me adding subtracting lengths of time here and there to ... a scene?  You spend more time looking at here this spot, there that passage? and then  you link your trajectory and that makes a movie.

As for the sound of no music, if there is no music, there might be noise, or sounds coming from friction, movements, a kind of left over disorganised sounds.

But I really should read the original texts to see what was said, however i am in a stretch of no rush no urgency mood.  What should I read in such moments?

I think of all those sunny songs that are not love songs.  Sad unrequited love, separation loves, waiting languishing loves are all unsatisfied love stories.  If you remove all these type of hopeless, powerless stories what kind of love songs do we have?

I will try to round up a few off the top of my head, and then follow through with researched titles

"Raindrop keeps falling on my head"

"A whiter shade of pale"

"sukiyaki"

"Help" (Beatles)

"A wonderful world"

"Shame shame shame"
