The Triptych of Mondongo review – one part art documentary, two parts directorial megalomania

-
What begins as a portrait of Argentinian art collective Mondongo snowballs into Mariano Llinás’s infuriatingly brilliant farrago of colour, conflict and existential crisis About as inside-baseball for visual arts as you can get, Mariano Llinás’s three-part portrait of Argentinian art collective Mondongo is knackering, infuriating and, infuriatingly, often brilliant – especially in its more sincere second instalment. The film nominally tries to document Mondongo’s 2021 Baptistery of Colours project , in which the artists catalogued the chromatic spectrum with plasticine blocks inside a dodecahedron chapel. But it quickly snowballs into Llinás’s own scattershot inquiry into colour and portraiture, a tone poem that ceaselessly interrogates its own tones, a crisis of faith about representation, and – as he falls out with artists Juliana Laffitte and Manuel Mendanha – a droll depiction of a director’s nervous breakdown. As Laffitte lets fly at him at one point, Llinás can never resist the...

Gisele Bündchen stripped naked for the new Burberry ad campaign. After cryptic social media postings by Burberry's creative director, it's finally clear that Gisele Bündchen is the star of the new ad campaign. The authors of the new advertising campaign are the Italian-Swiss fashion photographer duo Luigi & Iango, with Susan Koller responsible for the styling. In the photo and video campaign of the TB Monogram collection, in the center of which is the brand's signature monogram, Gisele Bündchen tries on revealing bodysuits, swimsuits, cardigans, bright sweatshirts, and stockings. In the previous post. You can find Bikinis. The holiday season is about to come, which means that many girls start looking for the same swimsuit in which happy beach photos and repeated swims in pools and seas will be taken. We show you the hottest swimwear styles of 2022 - both one-pieces and bikinis - and tell you which brands to look for. Frankies Bikinis Religious motifs, heavenly flowers, or a naive cage - if one of these patterns is applied to a white swimsuit, then the beach look begins to correspond to one of the trends set by global brands. Blumarine The general interest in the aesthetics of the 2000s could not but be reflected in swimwear trends. So in the coming summer, feel free to remember those models that you wore 20 years ago and bet on tiger print, glitter, rhinestones, and logomania. Jacquemus As if imitating the Maison Valentino's passion, swimwear designers fell in love with fuchsia. So now, to be the star of the beaches and pool areas, it is enough to wear a monokini in a bright pink shade. And after returning to the city, a one-piece swimsuit can quickly turn into a bodysuit. Chanel With a bit of help from Chanel creative director Virginie Viard, black swimwear has gone from being a staple to a hot trend in the summer of 2022. Designers offer to choose not only monochrome models but also bikinis with contrasting stitching or delicate decor.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
