DON'T LOOK BACK (SHORT FILM) BY TIFFANY LIMOS

In 2013 Many of Them Magazine asked me to make a short film based on a Manifesto by Raya Martin. Raya Martin is the wunderkind of the Philippines. In very little time and at a young age has managed to conquer the international film festival circuit and turn cinema on its head. Of course I was honored. I was told that Raya picked out the chapter called DON'T LOOK BACK especially for me! I was floored because it was what I was feeling at the time.

There were other well known international filmmakers asked to join this project, I will find the names later... but my French DP Thomas Favel shot this. I wrote, starred in it but it was more like a fly-by-night kind of shoot. Its the story of my life in Paris in 2013 while I was living on place du Marché Saint Honoré in PARIS, FRANCE.

I was working on my book and a film for Arte Channel... and I was completely drained... I will post the film later. Here is a clip from the film for right now.

TIFFANY LIMOS X THIERRY FREMAUX

In honor of the Cannes Film Festival 2014... here is a photo with my good friend Thierry Fremaux... The Cannes Film Festival Director and Programmer. This photo is from when I was living in Paris in 2013. Thierry and I attended the premiere of Django Unchained with Quentin Tarantino.... and 3 days prior Quentin gave Thierry, Pierre Rissient, and myself a private screening of Django Unchained... #CinemaRoyalty

Oh, I forgot to mention that we all had dinner the night before the movie premiere... I think it was called Paris restaurant near the Ritz Carlton Hotel... and it was just a small dinner with Thierry and Quentin... and Roman Polanski showed up! It was a GREAT night... great food, wine, cinema talk, and great company!

MY BFF QUENTIN TARANTINO OF COURSE! (I took some cool video of Quentin at this event. I just have to put it online at some point when I am free.)

I also have some amazing photos of the Django Unchained Premiere... I have to sort through them and put them on here.

PIERRE RISSIENT - if you don't know who this man is, he discovered Lino Brocka, Jane Champion, Clint Eastwood, Quentin Tarantino... and many others... brought them to Cannes.... Famed and respected film critic Todd McCarthy has a great documentary on him called Man of Cinema.. watch it. PIERRE RISSIENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MUCH CINEMA TODAY! LOOK HIM UP!

TIFFANY LIMOS WIKIPEDIA CHANGES...

Someone (annoying person) on Wikipedia keeps changing my information even though my manager and lawyer have written to Wikipedia managers about it. Its still a work in progress because I've done so much work in Asia, Africa, and Europe over the last 2 years... here is a draft... but there is alot more to add. I took the footnotes out, but all this information is referenced and published. I will add the links later.

==Early life==

Tiffany Limos was born in Dallas, Texas. Limos grew up in Mesquite, Texas and was raised in a videostore.

She is of Filipina, Spanish, Hawaiian, French, African and Chinese descent. Her father grew up selling fruit on the street in the Philippines and her mother was from a wealthy Filipino family.

==Career==

At 16, Ms. Limos began modeling for the Ford agency and appeared in teen magazines like ''Sassy (magazine)|Sassy'' and ''YM (magazine)|YM''. She subsequently quit modeling and worked as a hostess at the Coffee Shop in Manhattan's Union Square (New York City)|Union Square. She worked at ''Visionaire'' and "V" magazine as a creative consultant at 19 years old in 1999. That same year Limos wrote a script for Larry Clark called ''American Girl From Texas'' that Clark has often cited as his dream project.

Limos made her acting debut in 2002 in the film ''Teenage Caveman'', a Quentin Tarantino favorite.

In 2003, Limos, 23, has written three scripts, Printed Matter based on her mentor Larry Clark,Tulsa based on Clark's book, and the third, An American Girl from Texas, is semi-autobiographical.

Also in 2003, Limos found and cast Larry Clark's film Wassup Rockers. Clark later shot Jonathan Velasquez the star of Wassup Rockers and Tiffany Limos for simultaneous covers of the French ''Rebel'' magazine.

In 2007, Limos, 27, was interviewed by Ruben V. Nepales, Head of the Hollywood Foreign Press on being honored at the Cinemanila Film Festival along-side her bestfriend and collaborator Quentin Tarantino by President Gloria Arroyo. Limos expressed mutual admiration with Tarantino for Filipino legends Cirio H. Santiago, Eddie Romero, and Gerry de Leon. Limos also tributed the Cannes Directors' Fortnight at the Cinemanila Film Festival, she honored her friend Olivier Pere the President of the Cannes Directors' Fortnight.

In 2008, Quentin Tarantino spoke about being introduced to legendary Filipino director Cirio H. Santiago by Limos. Tarantino expressed that he was a big fan of Santiago.

Larry Clark Alumna, actress and filmmaker, Limos In 2013 directed Academy Award Winning Director Michel Gondry for Nowness.com

Limos collaborated with Gondry for years. Had collaborated with him for a decade and helped him on such projects as The Block Party, The Science of Sleep, and produced a video for Kanye West called Heard'em Say.

Apprentice and worked for Larry Clark, Quentin Tarantino, Michel Gondry, Woody Allen, Spike Lee.

Throw back to Tarantino X Limos 2007

I found an old article about my trip to the Philippines with Quentin Tarantino (one of my bestfriends) and it was done by the Head of the Hollywood Foreign Press, Mr. Ruben Nepales... (a fellow Filipino). In this article you can read about my knowledge on Filipino cinema and Tarantino's same feelings. I do have a vast knowledge of Filipino cinema due to my father and mother... I will write more about that in detail in the future.... but this is a true find for all you CINEPHILES out there! READ ABOUT IT HERE -> -> -> TIFFANY LIMOS X QUENTIN TARANTINO 2007

Michel Gondry: A Cinephile's Labyrinth

The Acclaimed Director Gives Us an Insider's Glimpse of His Favorite Video Store

Michel Gondry takes us on a tour of his local Parisian haunt in A Cinephile’s Labyrinth, a new work directed by Larry Clark alumna, actress and filmmaker Tiffany Limos. The Academy Award-winning director reminisces on time spent wandering the aisles of La Butte Video Club, the small VHS and DVD store to which he has made pilgrimages over the years. “I watched all the early Wim Wenders films from La Butte when I was preparing for The Science of Sleep,” says Gondry of this old school answer to Netflix. In his forthcoming L’Écume des Jours (Mood Indigo), the French auteur adapts Boris Vian’s 1947 cult novel of the same name—a satirical story of young love set in jazz-infused Paris. “I tried to avoid ‘Rive Gauche’ clichés,” he says of the upcoming feature, “but I used the music of Duke Ellington.” Similarly, La Butte is a relic of Paris’ past and one that continues to inspire—not just during the making of 2008’s homage to video, Be Kind Rewind, but in providing the director with regular interaction with other film lovers. “Out of all the directors I work with, Michel is the most fun,” muses Limos. “He makes me laugh out loud constantly.” Here Gondry reveals just how important his encounters in the video aisle have been to his acclaimed oeuvre.

Was the video store a big part of your early experience with film?

Michel Gondry: We had a video player at home since the early 80s so the video process was part of my adolescence. I used to shoot little sketches with my brothers and our friends. Sadly, I don’t think there are many places like La Butte left where I live in Brooklyn.

Do you ever think about whether your film will end up on the shelves of somewhere like La Butte when you are making it?

MG: Yes. In fact it’s one of the reasons why we as filmmakers have to define the genre that we want our film to belong to. We know that people will put them on specific shelves. It doesn’t make things easy when your genre is not well defined.

Have these films also influenced your collaborations with other artists, such as the musicians for whom you’ve made music videos?

MG: Yes, sure. I remember the first time I collaborated with Björk—we discussed all our favorite movies. We discovered that we had lots of favorite films in common. Like The Night of the Hunter (1955) for instance, which became an inspiration for the video for [her 1993 single] “Human Behaviour.”

Do you still watch films as much as you used to before you began making them?

MG: I don’t see them the same way. Unfortunately, I can’t take myself out of the equation. Most of the time I’m watching a movie, I’m thinking, “I could never achieve this!”

Your latest adaptation takes on a work of satire. Is it important to have a sense of humor in filmmaking today?

MG: Humor helps to swallow the harshness of life.

Boardwalk Empire Premiere


(click on photo to enlarge)

I went to see Michael Pitt at this premiere. Nelson George and I took this great photo at their photobooth! It was a wonderful night. Everyone was there. (Pharrell, Scorsese, Schrader, all the usual suspects) I do want to say that I've known Michael Pitt since we were teenagers and it was so great to see him on a series like Boardwalk Empire... CONGRATS!
