UPDATE – Tattoos, Nudity and all that Jazz

Last week our highly esteemed Pícaro made an additional 2k deposit for the film. These funds are specifically directed to the Studded Plank torture of Graciela. This particular torture involves the construction of a table/rack with some structure for the Studded Plank, stocks to hold neck, wrists and ankles. Two stocks, that is. It also involves flogging, prior to the plank, bastinado, maybe some hot irons, and in some other case, not Graciela, water torture as well.

This particular table/rack will be used to torture Ines with an instrument that I’m not at liberty to say, but it will be terrifying and extremely painful, to say the least. Pícaro’s contribution brings the total cash being used now to $ 6,500. There will be another 1,000 coming our way to bring the total to 7,500. I have word that one major contributor is preparing a deposit for 3,000. That will bring the total to over 10k. A fifth of our goal. That’s not bad at all.

Concerning Mila On The Cross

Some comments came our way, which I responded but now I’ll be expanding a bit.

I’m sure it was a very sweet moment when Mila’s breasts were exposed. I agree that Mila “fits the cross extremely well.” She looks spectacular. And I love how in the last pic she seems to be smiling with pride. But I hope we get to see those garments completely removed. Just had to say it.

The images I’m posting are from the demo or demos Jac is making with the cast. The intention of these video exercises is to have some material for the demos, to test some of the instruments, to see how the cast feels on them, to rehearse what is going to happen on them, like the test of the Studded Plank on Graciela, for instance. En fin, to work out those details that will be part of the scenes, so when the time comes to shoot the film, things will be more efficient and cost effective. Jac wants to have all the details sort out before going in the expensive location.

Most of the garments the nuns are wearing will eventually be gone during the movie and most likely in future tests and rehearsals. As a matter of fact, there are shots of Dani totally nude, as she will be in the film.

Who will end up totally nude and all of that is something that has to do with the story itself. What the intention of the inquisitor is, how far does he want to go with his demands. It also has to do with what the Confessor, known as The Mad Monk, wants from those under his spiritual care. When the Mad Monk wants a nun totally exposed is for a strong reason, which he has to justify to himself and his omnipresent God.

Concerning Mila’s Tattoos

Mila has been one of the reasons that has brought me back to Red Feline in recent years. She is a beautiful and spectacular performer. I was saddened to see the huge tattoos she has added since last we saw her. Hope you’ve got a lot of makeup to cover all that ink. I continue to be amazed at the penchant for some of the most beautiful women to cover themselves this way. It’s like having a stradivarius and hiring a graffiti artist to paint it.

Mila had those tattoos for many years already. She had them when we shot JUSTINE, but you don’t see them. They are nicely and naturally covered. You actually see them in Olalla, where Mila’s tattoos are part of her character. Olalla was made long before JUSTINE. Those tattoos were there but not seen in Dead But Dreaming and in Pygmalion. When the movies are made, the tattoos are gone, unless Jac wants them as part of the character.

The truth is, a lot of women of Mila’s generation have them, Bea has them, Dani has them, even Amy has them. Yes, she does. Everyone that shows up for casting, with very few exceptions, have tattoos, big, small, some cover their entire bodies. I guess that’s how things are now. But fear not, for a period movie, like Maleficarum Monxa Mala, those tattoos will be completely covered.
