I absolutely love this shot, Jilly! How much beauty can you capture in empty space and yet the small gap between these two is filled with something bright, something exquisite. Bravo on a really extraordinary, timeless image.
Casablanca is in a dead tie for my all-time favorite movie with Koyaanisqatsi (how's that for broad tastes?). When St. Louis looks dull and boring I can say to my wife, "we'll always have Paris."
"Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine." Your video montage here has chills running my spine... Casablanca is by far my favorite film of all time. And I will forever be time-locked in a love affair with Ingrid, even though this "don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world" David *
David, Maybe it amounts to more than a hill of beans - maybe it's what life is all about. In my book anyway. It's my all-time favourite film ever ever too.
Belle photo b&w, et une des plus belles références cinematographiques.
ReplyDeleteGreat portrait accompanied by a song that (still) brings tears to my eyes. Gotta rent that film again.
ReplyDeleteAwww ... noice.
ReplyDeleteI rented it for the umpteenth time about 2 months ago. Should just get me a copy. She was a gorgeous woman. 1982, eh?

ReplyDeleteAs the saying goes, "They don't make 'em like that any more."
