Paris' Erotic Launch

Leave it to YSL to launch Paris fashion week with an erotic video. Ironically enough, we just watched "The Dreamers," a totally bizarro flick about an American student who gets caught up in a lovers dilemma with a woman AND her twin brother. And here, we see Michael Pitt himself, the star of The Dreamers, starring in this short erotic film. It's no more than his face, with the sexiest French voice-over (everything in French is sexy...). She could be reciting a pumpkin bread recipe, for all we know, so thank goodness for the subtitles. Some people have already criticized it as being absurd, but we think it amazing. Just the notion of creating poetic, one-sided dialogue, choosing the right face, the right tone of voice, the right medium, the right moment in time...is art.
