Emmanuelle Alt: Girls On Film

Last October, Vogue Paris published an editorial styled by Emmanuelle Alt titled "The Party" with models Isabeli Fontana, Natasha Poly, and Anja Rubik. While shooting the editorial, Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin also made a video behind the scenes for us to enjoy. The scenes roll to the song "Girls On Film" by Duran Duran which is so perfectly suited that I must include the lyrics here.

"Girls On Film"

See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out it's so bright
Then walk right out to the fourline track
There's a camera rolling on her back, on her back
And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine

Girls on film, girls on film, girls on film, girls on film

Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again

Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film
Girls on film (got your picture), girls on film

Wider baby smiling you just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night I'm touching close I'm holding bright, holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I'm shooting a star

Girls on film (she's more than a lady), girls on film
Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film
Girls on film (see you together), girls on film
Girls on film (see you later), girls on film
Girls on film (what ya doing), girls on film
