Et que la créatrice des costumes, Birgitta Bjerke, était avant sa carrière dans le cinéma la reine du crochet, et que ses créations étaient notamment portées par Eric Clapton ?Je suis Céleste Durante, et dans ce nouvel épisode de Profession : Costumière, je vous raconte l'histoire d'une des robes les plus iconiques de l'histoire du cinéma.

Most of the albums so far in my father's collection were of popular artists from the US. This record is the first of four my dad had from an orchestra leader who reportedly was from England, featuring a trumpet player, who reportedly has the same name as the guy who writes all the liner notes for the orchestra leader. Meanwhile, there were a number of musicians who really recorded this album. Who they were is a budget record label mystery. So, get ready to hear some pretty melodies while you're having your afternoon crumpets in Volume 199: Tea and Trumpets.

This week's quiz: On 17 September, I asked you a question about our article “French director receives two awards for debut film at Venice festival”. Earlier that week, Frenchwoman Alice Diop won the Silver Lion for her film Saint Omer at the Venice Film Festival. Saint Omer not only won the Silver Lion, it also won the "Best First Film" award. Alice Diop has, up until now, specialized in documentaries. In 2017 she won a César – the French Oscars, if you remember - for Best Short Film. And that was your question: What was the name of that documentary?   The answer is: Vers la tendresse, or Towards Tenderness. For her first feature film, Diop said she had used, as we noted in our article: “a seemingly sordid news item to question something much broader, which is the relationship that all women and men have with motherhood". In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: What three things would you not take to a desert island? The winners are: RFI English listener Sajjad Hossain from Joypurhat, Bangladesh, who is also the winner of this week's bonus question. Congratulations Sajjad!  The other winners this week are Muhammed Nazim, a member of the International RFI DX Radio Listeners Club in Murshidabad, India - which is our very first official RFI English Club. There's Amran Hossain, a member of the Shetu RFI Listeners Club in Naogaon, Bangladesh; Faheem Noor, the president of the World United RFI Listeners Organization Club (WULO) in Nankana Sahib, Pakistan – the club celebrated its 22nd anniversary this past week. Congratulations to WULO president Faheem Noor and all the members! Last but certainly not least is RFI Listeners Club member Ding Lu from Jiangsu Province in China. Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's program: “Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend” by Jule Stein and Leo Robin, sung by Carol Channing; “Gondola Song” op.19, no.6 by Felix Mendelssohn, performed by Oh Hyoung Lee; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer, and “Forbidden Games” by Narciso Yepes and Marcel Stellman, sung by Miriam Makeba.

On April 12th, President Roosevelt dies of a cerebral hemorrhage, and Harry Truman becomes President. Two weeks later, Adolph Hitler commits suicide, and the Nazis surrender. With Germany defeated in Europe, the U.S. and its allies focus their full attention on the Japanese. They mine Japan's home islands, preventing vital food and fuel from reaching port.

In Hawaii, most interned Japanese-Americans have been released from the camps. Nightly blackouts and martial law have finally ended, but the U.S. military still controls the islands. Hawaiian civilians are counting the days until the war is over. And with Japan nearly vanquished, the Chinese civil war between the Communists and the Nationalists is about to explode again.

Personal allusions, belongings, writings, information, etc.  This episode is titled Personalia, because it examines what a person’s belongings convey about them. Maggie talks with Brooke again—who you might remember from the season 3 premiere episode about her love of estate sales. What Brooke likes most about estate sales is being able to see a person’s stuff in the context of their home, which helps give you a sense of what the person—who is usually dead—was like. But Brooke also makes a very interesting point about estate sales: They seem to be a natural part of the human circle of life. We all own things, something needs to be done with those things when we’re gone. Brooke’s responses help Maggie examine loss she’s experienced in her own life, and how stuff often acts as a stand-in for the people who have left us.   You can follow Thrift: What Your Garage Sale Says About You a few different places across the internet:  On Facebook & Instagram @thriftpodcast  Sign up for the newsletter at https://thriftpodcast.substack.com to receive show notes and extra content related to the podcast.

That’s OK, Maggie hadn’t either. At least she’d never considered or really noticed how they tend to get stuck in trees around the city. But some people, like the Carroll Gardens Plastic Bagman, make it their mission to rid NYC trees of bags and other debris.  Maggie’s also never thought of plastic bags as artifacts that can tell us a lot about our social history. At least she hadn’t until she spoke with Glasgow-based artist Katrina Cobain about the online plastic bag museum she started earlier this year.  In this episode, Maggie considers plastic bags from a few different angles to help us think about how we might, one day, rid the world of them.  Want to check out the Plastic Bag Museum or donate a bag to the collection? You can do that, here. You can also follow them on Instagram @plasticbagmuseum. To see what the Plastic Bagman is up to or report a bag in the tree in the Carroll Gardens area, follow @plastic_bagman on Instagram.   Want to consider plastic bags some more?

With the help of his mom, Sasha, the 11-year-old entrepreneur was able to set up an online and brick-and-mortar thrift store to help parents buy affordable clothes for their children.  The cost of thrifting has been on the rise in recent years, especially in cities like New York. This can have a negative impact on the people and families who rely on being able to buy secondhand clothes. Obocho was able to recognize this problem, and that’s why he opened a store where all the items are available for $10 or less. This episode is a great introduction to the topic of the gentrification of thrifting, which will be covered in later episodes this season.  Check out Obocho’s closet for yourself:  www.obochoscloset.com  You can find Thrift: What Your Garage Sale Says About You in a few different places on the internet.

At least that’s what Lexie Dellaney—a 10-year-old girl living in County Offaly, Ireland—discovered when she was looking for ways to raise money to help homeless charities in Ireland. Her first yard sale was a huge success, bringing in over 400 Euro that she used to purchase items different charities could provide homeless people across the country. Since hosting a yard sale fundraiser when she was 7, Lexie’s moved on to other methods of collecting donations like Lexie’s Homeless Appeal, a Facebook fundraiser her parents helped her run.  Maggie talks with Lexie about all the volunteer work she’s accomplished and tells you how to run your own yard sale fundraiser.

It also just seemed like a nice way to bring the congregation and community together.  Siblings Chuck and Linda Warren took the lead on organizing these sales, not only asking parishioners and people in the neighborhood to donate items, but also going through and offering up their own stuff.  For Chuck, it was an opportunity for him and his wife to do some light spring cleaning. But for Linda, it was a chance to purge all the things that were becoming a burden for her and could one day become a burden for someone else.  I like how the congregation was using a yard sale to raise money for something greater than themselves, but I feel like all yard sales, in a way, are about people helping people—whether it’s raising money for a cause, helping a friend go through a deceased loved one’s belongings, or buying something to take off of a stranger’s hands.

Both of them had been holding on to most of their stuff for at least 10 years, and they expressed a desire to find their old costume pieces “good homes.” I thought this was interesting, and I wonder if it’s a sentiments that’s at the heart of all garage sales: you want your treasured possessions to have a new life with someone who will truly appreciate them.

Records! Books! Furniture! Artwork! Kitchenware! Clothing! Some things that may actually belong to you! Appliances! Electronics! Kitsch! Souls/soles! Bikes! Potentially a car! We’ll have beer and bloodies if you prefer to just browse and help us ring in a new chapter. Tell your friends.” While only Coco was moving, the landlord suggested that both Coco and Sarah do something about the sheer volume of stuff accumulating in their basement. And so, they decided to have a yard sale. From a Jane Fonda workout record to dishes right out of a 1970s dinner party, Coco didn’t really feel any regret about what she was practically giving away. There were a few items—like some mid-century furniture pieces and an old turntable—that sold for less than they were worth, though, and Coco admitted that it felt a little strange. Coco and Sarah are self-proclaimed hoarders who realized that it was time to give up a lot of their stuff. According to Coco, “Everyone should own [certain things] for a minute.” To find out more about Thrift: What Your Garage Sale Says About You, you can follow me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Tsundoku is the Japanese word for buying more books than you can possibly read. If you’re anything like me, then this is something you’re definitely “guilty” of. I can always buy more books, no matter how many I have waiting to be read. I buy most of my books secondhand for a few reasons: It’s cheaper It’s easier to buy books in bulk I usually end up learning something interesting about the previous owner That last reason is what inspired me to create this podcast. I found a copy of Judith Martin’s Miss Manners’ Guide to Excruciatingly Correct Behavior at a library book sale that had a curious inscription ‘To a Classy Broad’ from a man named Doug. The Classy Broad received this book as a Christmas gift from Doug in 1989. I started to wonder why the Classy Broad decided to give the book away. What makes any of us decide to give things away? When do we finally decide it’s time to give things away that we’ve been holding on to for years? Visiting garage sales and interviewing the sellers and buyers seemed like a great way to explore the stories behind the possessions we once loved and are ready to let go of.
