Fur - Hq Trailer Captures Options

[Ed_]

few HQ captures from the Fur trailer... btw I'm going to go see the movie in two weeks... one of my old professors has invited me to a private screening here in Chicago... (I'm a film student still, so I keep in touch with my new and old teachers)

so I'll report back...

[Spudsie]

Thanks for this, Que
She really is the most fabulous actress. This just doesn't look like her at all....no false nose or anything. Honestly if I didn't know it was her...I'd say it was a young Sissy Spacek. Its not the down-play of make-up and costume either.....its the persona within. I don't know the Diane Arbus story, and I'm not likely to read it before the film. I really want to be swept up in this...
Thankyou again for the shots

omg omg omg! thank you so much que! i love the images in this film! thank you thank you thank you! the emotions are so evident in closer inspection of each of those photos! absolutely amazing! nicole, how do you do it? i love love love this! thanks again!

* i can't get over this! i'm sorry! they're all amazing. my top picks would be the ones where she's peeking through the hole, the one where she's looking up, the one where she seems to cry, nicole standing in front of a pool (?), nicole smoking/thinking and the last one where she's covered in hair. basically all of them!

Look at that actress! Superb. Thanks Que.

Will you be the first person here to see it I wonder. I am green with envy and look forward to hearing your report.


It is quiet today. Everyone busy working hard.

[Samantha Stevens]

Thank you!
ciao

[mss_diane]

I'm so looking forward to this film.
I really hope that this will be a weak year for best actress (like last year) so that Nicole can be nominated for best actress Oscar!

[nea]

thank you can't wait for the film to bad it's coming here so late.

[times]

......fabulous : thanks Que Nicole looks as beautiful as ever,and I really like this dark hair

If you do get to see it before the rest of us,PLEASE post what you thought?

[tulipa]

Thank you very much, Que!
Just put one of those pics as my desktop! Fantastic!

[Meisha]

Thank you, Que.

Now I'm even more excited about this film. You're so lucky to get to see it ahead of the limited release. I'm looking forward to your review.

[RedSatinDoll]

Thank you, Que!

Shainberg and his cinematographers (and who IS his cinematographer, btw? If anyone deserves some kudos it would be he or she) evidently think like painters as well as filmmakers, as these caps make clear. Sometimes that can mean dull or heavy-handed filmmaking, but the trailer and the erotic tension in just those two minutes (as well as early reviews) has me confident (or at least optimistic) that Shainberg has achieved a synthesis of aesthetics and meaning.

(Whatever the heck that meant. In other words - looks good, can't wait!)

Interesting comparison to Sissy Spacek, spudsie. I shall have to look again...and again (go ahead, twist my arm. )

**Ok, I've got to say this. The wigmakers' art is astonishing today, and too little heralded. (They don't even have an Oscar for that, do they? For costumes and makeup but not wigs. They ought to, in my opinion. And again - who is the wigmaker, and or the person who sets it?)

Of course I know she wearing a wig here (or more than one, mostly likely), because I know her hair texture well enough and I know from past films etc. (When I saw Birthday Girl I naively assumed she had just dyed her hair until I read an interview with the director, Jez Butterworth, in which referred to her wearing a wig. Likewise Moulin Rouge -I never even thought about it at first, really.) Of course I know better than that now, but it still never ceases to amaze me how many films I've seen Nicole in and not once am I thinking, oh, yeah, that's a wig you can tell.

Look at the cap where she's on the beach pressing the fur/hair of her coat to her face. Enlarge the cap to see the individual strands of hair that seem to be growing from her "hairline". I see a little band of change in coloration that might or might not be makeup to cover an edge of a wigcap, and I'm sitting here staring at a still image. It's fascinating and I am thoroughly impressed - how do they do that?

Que,

I'm envious as all heck. I will hopefully be one of the first movie-goers to see Fur when it opens to the public. I am so excited about this film, when I am happy to wait to see Nicole's others. Don't know why Fur is different, it just is. Can't wait to hear what you have to say about it.

[consuelo]

I'll be waiting for your review Que. Her eyes/face are very expressive. Thanks for the lovely pics.

[NicoleFan17]

Oh my! Thank you so much Que!

It's quite interesting to line up all these stills and one by one looking at them from beginning to end. You actually see major character transformation in them. From the content seemingly happy housewife, to a curious and infatuated observer to a very liberated but sad woman. That's what I got out of looking just at Nicole's face.

And can't wait for your review Que!

[BabyNick]

Thanx so much 4 da caps Que Nic looks amazin U're so lucky ya gonna get 2 c Fur Ya must come on da board and tell us all about it

She had on a wig in Moulin Rouge? Wow they did a really good job, I thought she dyed her hair b/c it looked a little to red to be her real red hair but I thought it was at least still her hair.

Que you are soo lucky. The rest of us will just have to wait and wait unitl Nov. 10. Thanks for the screen captures

Well said RsD !!!!!!

I must admitt it totally amazes me The Way They Do The Things "They Do" And I agree there should be an Oscar nomination for this category
Thanks Que for such neat pics
I really enJoyed All of them.....
Nic is Truely Such An Amazing One of A Kind Actress

[skankyoldwhore]

I'm so looking forward to this film.
I really hope that this will be a weak year for best actress (like last year) so that Nicole can be nominated for best actress Oscar!

There isn't much pride in getting nominated because the category is weak. A great performance should be nominated on its merit and not just added to the list because they apparently don't have enough oscarbait performances that year, that's why Oscar is losing its power, too many "hail today and forget tomorrow" performances have been nominated. I'd rather see her overlooked than nominated because it is a weak year. I can't even remember those that were nominated last year .
