This is the third in a series of films for Chanel Fragrances. The two previous were <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfoMbir_Qd4">Baz Luhrmann's starring Nicole Kidman in 2004</a> and <a href="http://ifitshipitshere.blogspot.com/2007/09/new-chanel-campaign-breaks-with-keira.html">Joe Wright's starring Keira Knightly in 2007</a>. The two and a half minute film will soon air in edited versions as tv commercials.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwVgf6UrUzui8vbYCz6Lfbj2mAsLhCvUu8JxWbS_ssjAx5_yRT-vQdjMFPeU0_g39Xlyk3GAolzJAwnLPR7HO33DB9VF0z_784-kmHRq51xRNHTZjK9WlJDZFpHrF65IhankRakhwOGm-f/s1600-h/Picture+70.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337643131645842626" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwVgf6UrUzui8vbYCz6Lfbj2mAsLhCvUu8JxWbS_ssjAx5_yRT-vQdjMFPeU0_g39Xlyk3GAolzJAwnLPR7HO33DB9VF0z_784-kmHRq51xRNHTZjK9WlJDZFpHrF65IhankRakhwOGm-f/s400/Picture+70.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 425px; height: 563px;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">above: Not so coincidentally Audrey Tautou plays Coco Chanel in Anne Fontiane's 2009 movie </span><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1035736/" style="font-style: italic;">Coco Avant Chanel.</a><br /></span><br />Director <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000466/">Jean-Pierre Jeunet</a>, who has shot 40-50 previous advertisments as well as films like Delicatessen and Amélie, talks about his experience filming the latest Chanel No.5 film with 33 year old French actress <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0851582/">Audrey Tautou</a>, which also stars model turned actor <a href="http://models.com/models/Travis-Davenport">Travis Davenport.</a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJat16e0gEUSWI5A5bokglmFCbO2JEHIEyEK6qvxUqsz_Ih34OXJzcT6fLKbxLmkc7SzcXDirL9CHrP6izQUM94lFB7ToYfGfVoJ3-pQu4wyQaYCPOfFCJr1tdY5rLoe0MSaiM5JzbL4iC/s1600-h/Picture+16.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337609048334890866" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJat16e0gEUSWI5A5bokglmFCbO2JEHIEyEK6qvxUqsz_Ih34OXJzcT6fLKbxLmkc7SzcXDirL9CHrP6izQUM94lFB7ToYfGfVoJ3-pQu4wyQaYCPOfFCJr1tdY5rLoe0MSaiM5JzbL4iC/s400/Picture+16.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 530px; height: 327px;" /></a><br /><br />Here's the upshot:<br />The 2 minute and 20 second film (Jeunet says it's "not an ad") for Chanel No. 5 is about chance meetings, fate, romance and more. In the behind the scenes interviews, the director makes it clear that he loved working for Chanel, he was given a great deal of freedom on the script, he knew he wanted to cast Audrey Tautou (Jean Pierre and Audrey have made 2 previous movies together) and Audrey helped him to choose the male lead from several actors in the running; Travis Davenport.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg88rgDIw7q4RfEYncIqce96zNwFMfAF8FryEUfzgI3g8Ql2Pepg0Ox2ItHRwPzWs_0mEu3xSdZB7dqDD-qacBl9xBKL4vMzs23q6CUk9wMHiuDEyRPEHVsNh0DIEuDFBQ7sOls5OdqIUh1/s1600-h/chanel+bottles+thrutheyears.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337647390826081954" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg88rgDIw7q4RfEYncIqce96zNwFMfAF8FryEUfzgI3g8Ql2Pepg0Ox2ItHRwPzWs_0mEu3xSdZB7dqDD-qacBl9xBKL4vMzs23q6CUk9wMHiuDEyRPEHVsNh0DIEuDFBQ7sOls5OdqIUh1/s400/chanel+bottles+thrutheyears.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 531px; height: 289px;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">above: Chanel No. 5 bottles through the years.</span></span><br /><br />The director had always wanted to shoot on a sleeper train, so when he got the brief from Chanel, he was surprised at how well it fit with what he'd always wanted to do. They wanted black dark images with reflections of light and emotion.<br /><br />The film was shot in Istanbul.<br /><br />If you're like most people, you don't really have the time to fully investigate the depth of the <a href="http://www.chaneln5.com/">nice site </a>where Chanel posts the film, along with many interviews, behind the scenes stills and more. So, I've abbreviated the info for you here. By choosing particular screen grabs and comments (albeit truncated and out of context), I can share with you the basic gist of the project.<br /><br />Below are screen grabs and visual sound bites that sum up the experience as shared by director Jean-Pierre Jeunet and actress Audrey Tautou.<br /><br />"It's a real film, it's cinema.
