Does Camilla Belle know Gabby 9er?

whatifloveneverhadtodie:

Babushka’s PARENTAL-CONTROL themed SATURDAY SEASON continues with the 2005 family drama, The Ballad of Jack and Rose, starring Daniel Day-Lewis and written/directed by his wife, Rebecca Miller. Providing yet another great reference for the relationship between Babushka’s Solomon 9er and Gabby 9er, the beautiful Camilla Belle plays the coming-of-age daughter of Day-Lewis’s terminally ill character who is nearing the end of his life as the couple struggle to deal with their complicated relationship and secluded life on a deserted island. There is an interview with Day-Lewis about this challenging role here and a fan-made montage of Camilla Belle’s scenes here (accompanied by the song ‘Broken’ sung by Lindsey Haun).

Even with all the dung, the island’s air had never smelt so sweet to her…

“I like the stars. It’s the illusion of permanence, I think. I mean, they’re always flaring up and caving in and going out. But from here, I can pretend…I can pretend that things last. I can pretend that lives last longer than moments. Gods come, and gods go. Mortals flicker and flash and fade. Worlds don’t last; and stars and galaxies are transient, fleeting things that twinkle like fireflies and vanish into cold and dust. But I can pretend…” Extract — Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 7: Brief Lives Photo — Doutzen Kroes in Love #8 F/W 2012 by Mikael Jansson
