French actress Leia Saidu, who has made four films at the Cannes Film Festival this year, has been crowned by the media as the "Queen of Cannes". In fact, there is another actress who is not too much in comparison, that is, the British actor Tilda Swinton.
On June 25, 2021, local time, in Rome, Oscar actress Tilda Swinton paid tribute to the costume performance art show "embodying pasolini" by Italian film director Pier Paolo Pasolini. People's Vision Diagram
Counting "The Souvenir Part 2," which has already been screened this week, along with "Memoria" and "The French Dispatch" and the documentary "The Storms of Jeremy Thomas," which features its appearances, Swinton, 60, also has four or five films at this year's Cannes Film Festival.
At the same time, in Rome, Italy, a tribute to the master of cinema by Tilda Swinton was also officially performed earlier. It's a show called "embodying pasolini" and is curated by Olivier Saillard, a 52-year-old Frenchman. Sayar is a renowned curator specializing in the history of fashion and has long been the director of the Musée d'étacée des Hautes école des Hautes des Hautes des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
Last January, Tilda began working with him on the project, reinvigorating on stage the forty classic costumes that had appeared in Pasolini's works through his physical performances. "The main purpose of the exhibition is to analyze what impact film costumes can continue to bring to the outside world after completing their mission of serving the film itself. Through Tilda Swinton, we realized a series of conversations between her and these film costumes. Sayar said.

Regarding this different film-related event, Tilda Swindon said that she has always been a fan of Pasolini's films and has been familiar with the Italian film master's films and poetry as early as a student. "The first Pasolini movie I saw was The Rendezvous Encyclopedia." "It was a movie that was both romantic and punk," she recalls. ”
In 1996, Swinton collaborated with director Derek Jarman on caravaggio, who asked her to take a good look at Pasolini's Gospel of Matthew as a pre-production work. "During the filming of Caravaggio, there was a close-up of me that lasted for a long time, which immediately reminded me of the image that Pasolini used in Matthew's Gospel, and at that moment, he was like my guardian angel, inspiring me infinitely."
In Swindon's view, in Pasolini's films, the costumes designed by the famous Italian film costume artist Danilo Donati also played a very important role. "The charm of those costumes was so powerful that when I touched the dress That Pasolini was wearing in The Canterbury Tales, I could still feel the flutter in my fingertips. Not to mention the costumes in "120 Days of Sodom", no matter who it is, as long as you touch it, you will definitely have the feeling of electric shock, which will make you feel that there is some lurking danger. ”

In addition to the above two films, the costumes used in "Incarnate Pasolini" are also derived from Pasolini's Gospel of Matthew, King Oedipus, Big Bird and Little Bird, One Thousand and One Nights, Ten Days and Pigsty.
