Preview: Water For Elephants

The film adaptation of the novel Water For Elephants, by Sara Gruen, set in the world of 1930s circus, is due out on 15th April. It will star Reece Witherspoon and Robert Pattinson. I read the book a while back, and certainly enjoyed it. I won’t say it blew my mind, but perhaps the film will help with the slow parts. Here’s the trailer and a few photos from the set, showing that we can expect some 1930s glamour and showgirl glitz in Reece’s wardrobe!

Backstage shots of hair and makeup at the show, fantastico! You can see, to give the models that haughty, high cheek-boned and highly arched brow look of Rene Gruau’s fashion illustrations in the 1950s, they used Face Lift Tape! Apparently it’s common in the fashion world and the entertainment industry, I had no idea!
