Roman Polanski Directs Prada's Cannes Film

Justin Fenner — Tue, 22 May 2012 10:42:01 PDT

Ben Kingsley and Helena Bonham Carter star as psychiatrist and his patient in a hilarious short Prada debuted at the Cannes Film Festival.

The Roman Polanski-directed film, called A Therapy, takes place during a psychiatrist's session. Bonham Carter's character comes into the doctor's office wearing head-to-toe Prada, doffs her coat and shoes before laying on a chaise lounge to muse about being wealthy and lonely. But the magic happens when Kingsley stops listening and wordlessly gets up to try on his patient's coat. Watch the video below.

>> It's goodbye London, hellooooo Paris for Gareth Pugh. Although he's only been showing since 2005, it was only a matter of time before Gareth took his business from the eccentric incubator that is London Fashion Week to the internationally prestigious Paris Fashion Week.

Thanks to an endowment of 150,000 euros, or approximately $233,549 — the largest international fashion prize of its kind — from the ANDAM Fashion Award, Gareth will be making his move to the next level in Paris this September with his Spring 2009 collection.

Exciting times for Gareth, who is currently on a British Vogue shoot with Tim Walker, Tim Burton, and Helena Bonham Carter, and said of the win: "It think showing in Paris is going to give the me necessary kick in the back side, and it's also a change of scenery from London. I want longevity, of course, and I also want to be taken more seriously."

>> Marc Jacobs mentioned insane asylums as one of his Fall 2011 reference points, and it seems that just that is being channeled through the collection's campaign. After the first ad popped up last week showing Helena Bonham Carter upside down and splay-legged, two more images have surfaced, the first with Bonham Carter feigning ill with spots affixed on her face and hands, and the second with her panting and begging as a dog.

>> Marc Jacobs has picked the queen of red carpet quirk - Helena Bonham Carter (who just so happened to wear a Marc Jacobs dress to the SAG Awards earlier this year) - as the face of his equally quirky, unpredictable label's Fall 2011 campaign. Only one image has leaked so far, showing Bonham Carter smiling in a pillbox hat, snapped from overhead by Juergen Teller. [TFS]
