They still seem so perfect to me. <br /><br />But after seeing this movie I changed my mind. I got interested with her. Seems soo different, original and smart at the same time. Really liked her and wish her all the best. <br /><br />I also find Sessilee very interesting. Self confident, focused on her career with clear values and goals she would like to acieve. Rest of the models, forgive me, made an impression of a liitle bit silly and goofy with nth intersting to say. <br />I only liked the scene with mom's sweater in the end - really good, fragile and touching.<br /><br />KajaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926616510432788953.post-63964985244897461982010-06-17T18:54:09.486-04:002010-06-17T18:54:09.486-04:00@ the last commenter:

Sasha indisputably has more screen time than the rest of the models, and after watching the documentary one can easily why. It is usually the slightly deviant ones that garner more attention. In Sasha's case, maybe she defies the stereotype that her doll-like face may have inspired by showing her talent as a painter and her overall positive personality, thus prompting the audience to have a second thought about these "life-size dolls."<br /><br />About Sessilee, the focus of the documentary seems to skew toward depicting lives of currently employed models rather than sporadically employed one hence her limited screen time. Nevertheless, as I noted earlier, your comment about race is a highly plausible factor. After all, diversity in the fashion industry is too complicated a topic to be distilled into a short power point presentation with three or four bullet points.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926616510432788953.post-30128744350116024782010-06-17T11:25:12.165-04:002010-06-17T11:25:12.165-04:00sessilee didn't get much film time in the tent...sessilee didn't get much film time in the tents as the other girls did..cause shes not white?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926616510432788953.post-50684380896967476522010-06-17T10:33:00.566-04:002010-06-17T10:33:00.566-04:00I'm glad that she is aware of how much she smo...I'm glad that she is aware of how much she smokes, lol. <br /><br />I think I understand why the director of the documentary described her as cold. I don't think she is though, just very blunt and to the point. She probably wasn't comfortable with being filmed for the documentary. She doesn't seem like the type who loves attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926616510432788953.post-26830159569751425232010-06-17T02:54:14.074-04:002010-06-17T02:54:14.074-04:00I think the part when Sessilee said that the reaso...I think the part when Sessilee said that the reason why she is modeling is that her brother could go to college is just so touching. Sometimes when people, like me, look at models and fashion, all we can see is glamor and we don't see what happens behind it. All the rushing, all the preparation, we usually don't see that. And, like you said, when you work with photographers like Terry Richardson, you can get mistreated. The need to be thin is also so hard on them, although Freja sounds like she is one of those lucky ones who don't ever get fat no matter what she eats.<br />I cracked up every time when they show Freja, they would put the water sound clip with it. I have a very tender scalpe, when I see the how they pull on models' hair in Chloe, all I can feel is pain.Kimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926616510432788953.post-62595885964793820302010-06-17T01:30:12.016-04:002010-06-17T01:30:12.016-04:00Very interesting movie, as well as your thoughts a...Very interesting movie, as well as your thoughts and comments. I didn't know much about Sasha, i fell in love with her too! (The girl obviously has a talent. As a graphic designer, I would be interested in seeing more of her drawings!) As for Freja, the girl is pretty and elegant as always... <br /><br />The fact that she's the only one talking about the 'body as a product' is not super surprising. After all, didn't we all expect it? I wonder if she's the only one preoccupied about the topic.<br /><br />I wish we could see her smile more often though, as in the last interview for First Face. (You can see she's lot more relaxed with a friend around.) Otherwise she becomes deeply serious in front of the camera. I think that girl is very thoughtful about what she rejects and I don't see her much as a rebel.<br /><br />And I love Constance, that girl is very grounded, and she speaks very well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-926616510432788953.post-82247159820360486232010-06-16T21:45:05.113-04:002010-06-16T21:45:05.113-04:00yea the film met my expectations, i just wish we w...yea the film met my expectations, i just wish we would have seen the models at chanel. freja is beautiful, she should go easy on the smoking you can tell she does it CONSTANTLY. i also fell for sasha's charm, i love how she says MASH POTEITO!! lol. the film was great over all hopefully we get an english subtitle soon. also i liked when they showed freja at times and the sound of waves in the background would come up. very enchanting in the mist all all the chaosAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
