Mood:  amorous

It's been a Dita sort of week. A "what now?" you ask. A Dita Von Tease kind of week - and that's never a bad thing.

First, I got to see Miss Von Tease's award-winning (seriously) acting in The Death of Salvador Dali, a short indie film. Very enjoyable. Very well done. And, the soundtrack by Felix Brenner is outstanding. I met him this past spring when the Boston Pops were doing the east coast premeire of his piece, "Transacoustica." The following week, the Pops performed it again, this time with Paul Oakenfold doing a live remix with live rock & roll drums added in. The original orchestral piece was wonderful, but the remix was absolutely fantastic. (Thanks to Margo and Scott for hosting the viewing and for the copy of the soundtrack.)

Anyhoo, back to Dita. She plays Salvador Dali's wife, Gala, in the movie - which, befitting Dali, is a bit surreal. Well worth viewing and listening to the soundtrack.  

The next Dita moment of the week, other than the occasional day dream, came in the form of a PETA ad campaign - sent along to me by Mike. Dita's staring in both a sexy photo campaign, as well as in a "behind the scenes" video clip, as seen below. 

If I had a pet, I'd certainly get it fixed now. 

Clearly, PETA has realized that sex sells a message. In addition to Dita, they've used Pam Anderson, and just this week rolled out a campaign with a nude Alicia Silverstone. Again, never a bad thing. (It looks like the vegetarian diet may have helped trim a few pounds off of our former Batgirl...)

While I can't say that I always support PETA iniatives, they do know how to run an eye-catching ad campaign.

Oh, and remind me to tell you of my meeting with Miss Von Tease...*sigh*
