How Jim O'Rourke's 'Eureka' Set Aoyama Shinji's 〈Eureka〉 in Motion

Angels, Witches, Vampires: Two or Three Things You Might Want to Know About Tilda Swinton’s “Orlando” Re-Release ①

〈Orlando〉 In 〈Orlando〉, a queen falls for the handsome noble boy Orlando (Tilda Swinton) and issues an order: “Don’t ever grow old, and don’t ever die.”
Tilda Swinton is an actress who seems like she just stepped out of a Renaissance painting. Usually, people describe actors with the phrase “untouchable,” but if I’m allowed to use that expression for only one person, I’d want it to be her.
