Jessica Chastain in 'The Good Fight' Lensed by Jessica Chou for Marie Claire Holiday

Jessica Chastain in 'The Good Fight' Lensed by Jessica Chou for Marie Claire Holiday

With her own company behind the Showtime miniseries ‘George & Tammy’, out now, Chastain was determined to give her “Stand By Your Man’ country singer “main character energy.”

The actor takes issue with the idea that Tammy Wynette was a doormat, reminding us that Wynette was married five times.

The male character of George Jones is played by Michael Shannon, who has an excellent relationship with Chastain.

As scripted, the scene went something like:

DON (picture a pencil neck with an ego): You're going to fuck my wife, aren't you, George?

GEORGE (Michael Shannon): Yes, I'm going to fuck her.

"[Michael] changed the line from, 'Yes, I'm going to fuck her'—excuse the language—to, 'I sure would like to," Chastain remembers. "The second he said, 'I sure would like to,' it was like, 'Oh, yes, this is happening. Because he sees her as someone who gets to make the decision. And that's working with an actor who's very aware he doesn't own me." Another perk of being producer? You get to pick your scenemates. "We were so in tune with one another," says Shannon, who first met Chastain on the set of 2011's Take Shelter. "The notion of sitting in front of another man and looking at a woman and proclaiming that you're going to fuck her, seems a little neanderthal to me. I mean, if I was the woman in question, I wouldn't enjoy that so much."

Georgia Fowler at Fiji's Nanuku by Nicole Bentley for Marie Claire Global

Georgia Fowler speaks to her comfort level shooting with Nicole Bentley, and the creative synergy they experience because much trust exists between the two women. This is no surprise to Anne of Carversville because we’ve advocated for women photographers for over a decade.

There’s no guarantee about any trust-building relationship in the world of sexual identity and model/photographer. But few of us miss the days of highly-publicized, bad-boy photographer Terry Richardson running a digital diary in which young models — and older, too — dropped by his studio for sexy photos combined with snaps of Richardson’s sexual apparatus.

See full size fashion images w/o paintings.

The artist Sanyu’s paintings are represented by Sotheby’s who writes that the artist was: among the first wave of Chinese artists of the Paris School during the 1920s. Picasso, Miró and Dalí arrived from Spain, Brancusi came from Romania, joined by Chagall from Russia and Kandinsky from Germany. From across the globe, creative immigrants took up residence in the world’s art capital of Paris.

The stories of the Chinese artists like Sanyu, Zao Wou-Ki and Chu Teh-Chun is of particular interest because their ancient cultural traditions were vastly different from those of the European painters.
