Mila Kunis is the new face of Dior

After Natalie Portman, which was chosen to advertise the perfume Miss Dior Chérie, another young and also dark-skinned actress is chosen to promote an advertising campaign for the House of Dior.
This is Mila Kunis, which will advertise the news, spring collection with bags of this company.
However, there are not a few who were surprised by the choice of face, as Mila Kunis, it can be relatively showy, but it has nothing to do with the range and aura of other faces who previously starred in Dior advertising campaigns.
             
In her statements to Womens Wear Daily magazine, Kunis stated that she now knows fashion, since she's more of a "jeans and t-shirts girl". "In my everyday life I don't wear very feminine clothes. But I love femininity on the red carpet.”, said the young actress.
Kunis co-starred with Portman in Black Swan, and apparently that work proved to be the catalyst for Dior's particular choice.
Between us anyway, previously Mila Kunis, not face of Dior, he didn't even miss photo shoots of this size. Let's see... Kunis in the Dior quilt with the gold chain in her hand and what in the world...

TANIA: Plum Chicken: Chicken with Plums

Marzan Satrapi's second directorial effort with the help of Vincent Parono confirms her and rewards us for our choice but also makes us fans of her art. We met her through Persepolis, a comic that became very popular initially and was transferred to the big screen later, as is. It was admittedly the first time a comic had such an interesting plot- which is not only about boys of all ages like comics usually are- and which made you watch it with undiminished interest.

The film is the story of Nasser Ali, of a famous Iranian violinist who lives in Tehran 1958. with Faringis and has two children with her: Lily and Cyrus. From the moment Ali is forced to part with his violin, everything will change.

Although here the film is with live actors and not comic characters, the aesthetic remains very close to that of the comic, at slow rates (but necessary for the plot) and a solidity that is not seriousness. We laughed at several scenes that had the humorous element within a tragic situation. Without melodrama and exaggerations, Satrapi and Parono make a moving film, which in essence oscillates between the two major themes of human existence- love and death. The cinematography of the film as well as its soundtrack complement the sparkles of this little French cinematic gem.
