[@KSJimbo247]

Her (Falconetti) only film. Amazing. See also Einhorn's "Voices of Light" - Anonymous 4. Also amazing. Track film and this music together.

[@sophistik000]

how beautiful, modern, cool and alien can be a woman at 57? Unique Tilda, the woman who fell on earth

Nevermind the video, close your eyes and listen to them blending, Bjork and Antony. If you don't have tears of joy streaming down I'm sad for your frozen heart..

[@johnbrocado1083]

so Tilda Swinton does everything can i be less depressed?

[@enriquemoon]

Uhmazing

[@karaloca]

She looks like Bowie.

[@pLasticiTic]

this footage was filmed in 2010 for the New York Times.... and Owen Pallett scored it. I love Anohni, but you should not have removed this video from its original context.

[@pLasticiTic]

(the piece was part of a series called 14 Actors Acting)

[@Mislavvvv]

It's metaart

[@thespectralchannel]

That's the nature of postmodernism. Unfair or not, artists have been appropriating images for a long time.

[@gegemec]

"artists" ... oh come on, what a way to justify anything. Appropriation is not the same as ripping off. This is just using modern media (not "post modern"... that era is thankfully finished now) to do whatever one wants without respect for the integrity of the original.

[@thespectralchannel]

ok bud so Douglas Gorden's 24 Hour psycho doesn't mean shit 2 you just because its post -postmodern?

[@wazupgirlz669]

?

[@tomspotley5733]

David Bowie looks great here.

[@painophilippe4285]

Hello No Bowie 😉❤💯

[@powellpressburger5507]

Tilda Swinton clearly trying to do Maria Falconetti in Carl Theodor Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc. See this magnificent film rather than the junk culture video version.

[@sayasawssen682]

:)

[@jamesdeansghost5531]

I agree... Some works of art are not meant to be duplicated or replicated in any fashion for any purpose. The Falconetti performance is so untouchable and revered like a Picasso art piece that to imitate it is blasphemous and distasteful.

[@jaynelson8288]

well you got the opportunity to reference it so swell

[@TheColorField]

Could you send me an official list of those artworks, it would be good to know.

[@powellpressburger5507]

You have this to be going along with: Maria Falconetti in Carl Theodor Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc. See this magnificent film.
