Funny Face

What Jo wants above all is to go to Paris and attend the famous Professor mile Flostre's philosophy lectures about empathicalism. When Dick gets back to the darkroom, he sees something in Jo's face which is new and fresh and would be perfect for the campaign, giving it "character", "spirit", and "intelligence". They send for Jo, pretending they want to order some books from her shop. Once she arrives, they try to make her over and attempt to cut her hair. She is outraged and runs away, only to hide in the darkroom where Dick is working. When Dick mentions Paris, Jo becomes interested in the chance to see Professor Flostre and is finally persuaded to model for the magazine. Dick sings "Funny Face".

The Coney Island History Project's first special exhibit of the season, opening on Memorial Day Weekend, will be "The Face of Steeplechase Park: Gams, Garters, and Stockings!" A look behind the smiling face of Steeplechase Park features rare photographs and artwork from the park's opening to its demolition, 1897-1966.

The park's quirky trademark was the grinning "Funny Face," an enigmatic symbol of the park's underlying theme of merriment, hilarity, and, most importantly, sex. The much-imitated face underwent numerous revisions during the park's run. Sometimes it was a gleeful, maniacal visage; at other times, it appeared as inscrutable as the Mona Lisa. Was the face a mask for Tilyou or did it represent his true personality? This exhibit examines the many variations through the decades.

Granted the face at Steeplechase was old and in need of repair. But in 1966 Trump and his older brother tore it down to make room for apartments Trump NEVER built. He tore down a relic that many loved and that is when his unpopularity began. 50 years ago!

As any kind of social commentary, it's horrible, of course. Makeover movie with Audrey Hepburn as the target (why the fuck would anyone think her face is funny?!?!) is just silly, and about anyone it would be offensive. The regressive gender bullshit, the patronizing way Astaire treats her, it's unforgivable, but at least she gets to smash a sexist dude over the head with a vase.

An immaculately arrayed montage of magazine covers, contact sheets, and perfectly posed models introduce viewers to Stanley Donen’s 1957 musical Funny Face – and the glamorous, glossy world of mid-century high fashion that serves as the film’s backdrop.

Featuring a title and theme song pilfered from an unrelated 1927 Gershwin musical of the same name, Funny Face is based on the early career of legendary fashion photographer Richard Avedon – known for his iconic portraits of the rich and famous – and his model/actress wife Doe. Written by Avedon’s friend Leonard Gershe, the film stars Audrey Hepburn as Jo Stockton, a fresh-faced model discovered by hot shot shutterbug Dick Avery, played by Fred Astaire. See what they did there?

Avedon’s life not only provided the basis for Funny Face, but his work took centre stage in the film as well, most notably in its opening titles. Avedon designed all the backgrounds used in the sequence, laying out each shot like a fashion magazine spread – an homage to his own fashion photography and the work of Alexey Brodovitch, the former art director of Harper’s Bazaar.{{im:7649}}

But Avedon's involvement in the project didn’t end with the opening; he was also intimately involved in the rest of the production. In addition to creating the fashion magazine-inspired backgrounds for the opening title sequence, Avedon also served as  Special Visual Consultant on the film, providing much of the photography used in the movie – including the iconic overexposed image of Hepburn that accompanies the title card – and helping director Donen to stage the Paris photoshoot and dark room sequences.

Sadly, Funny Face was Avedon’s only serious foray into the world of filmmaking (save for a stint as cinematographer for the Frontline documentary The Choice '96). What’s clear from this brief Hollywood sojourn is that Avedon’s keen eye would have been just as comfortable behind a movie camera as a Rolleiflex or a Deardorff. However, the influence of the title sequence lives on to this day. Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar would evoke the opening of Funny Face – one of his favourite films – in the main titles of his 1988 film Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown.

Funny Face Bakery opened in 2016 in a small bakery in the East Village. Their swiss meringue butter cream cupcakes first brought the bakery into the spotlight. Soon after, the original funny face cookies of the 2016 presidential candidates faces went viral and demand skyrocketed! From there, custom faces became a hit before Funny Face Bakery rolled out the Pop Culture cookies and the rest is history. Nowadays they have almost 40k Instagram followers and sell out frequently.

To make this funny face snack plate I simply took one of my white kitchen dishes and drew a face onto it with a black Sharpie permanent marker. I then baked it in the over at 325 degrees for 2 hours. This baked the marker right into the plate.

Silverman opened her first bakery, then called Cupcake Market, in 2016. Two weeks before the launch date, a cookie with a face popped into her head and she thought the idea could bring in customers, so created sugar cookies decorated with the faces of the presidential candidates at the time.

FUNNY FACE is a bubbly, brilliantly colored but rather superficial old-school Hollywood musical. Compared with the same director's earlier masterpiece Singin' in the Rain it's a great-looking bonbon that leaves a sort of funny taste, if you ponder it too hard (which one shouldn't). The script takes satirical jabs at the fashion world's shallow superficiality, especially in the opening "Think Pink" song-and-dance number. But it also parodies the rebellion against 1950s consumer society embraced by the "beat generation," and their jazz tunes, coffeehouse concerts, and nonconformists. ff782bc1db
