#7: MAKE DRESSING AND UNDRESSING A CROSS BETWEEN ART AND SPORT - YOU NEVER KNOW WHO'S WATCHING.
Since I'm doing multiples from "Manon 70" I thought I would also include the opening credits, as directed by Jean Aurel. I love this one. All that dressing and undressing. There's a voyeuristic pleasure to this sequence, as well as the compelling bustle of being backstage at a fashion show, of course. And then there's a lot of great Sixties fashion to grab your attention, too - with all those (now very obsolete) stockings. Emmanuel Ungaro is credited with doing Catherine Deneuve's clothes for the film, I suspect he did these as well (pretty sure one of the outfits on another model ends up on Deneuve in a later discotheque scene). And the classical guitar is a charming contrast as well. A great sequence to transition the audience out of reality and into the film, imho.
