A very cute photo of Jane on the set of Wonderwall, from W September 2004.


my scan

I LOVE the costumes and sets for Wonderwall. The imagery of the 60s was so great that the movies didn't need to really have much of a plot, I'll still sit through it for the fantastic images.

Has anyone here seen Jane in concert? How is she?

I just got tickets to see her in January, front row

^that's awesome, stella.
I heard she tends to experiment a lot on stage and her shows are usually quite intimate.. you're lucky. I wish she'd come around here some day, she's definitely one of the legens I'd really pay anything to see..

 

[StellaMare]

^^ Oh, that seems promising. The venue is great - it's a rather small 19th century theatre. I've seen Cat Power play there before and it was perfect. I think Jane will fit right in...

Here are some vintage Jane pics, and yes, that is her with the short hair too. Kinda reminds me of Mary Quant. I think she was still married to her first husband when these were taken. Enjoy!

Je t'aime moi non plus (1976)
Written & directed by Serge Gainsbourg

I finally found this movie last week, here are some caps

I also recently watched this excellent documentary series on Paris
http://www.open2.net/paris/abouttheseries.html

I was pleasantly surprised to see a section about Birkin and Gainsbourg
Jane talked about recording with Serge over a montage of vintage footage
(bonus Serge-at-piano shot at no extra charge)

all my caps if it wasn't clear

Thank you! I figured she did and I just couldn't find it because this place is still so huge to me.
