| The Cattleya is a beautiful orchid. Once wild it is now raised with great care and special technique: much as our approach to filmmaking should be. In Swann's Way, a volume of Marcel Proust's Remembrance of Things Past, the Cattleya has a special meaning for the protagonist and his lover. Recalling the woman's beauty as she bore a corsage of these flowers on one occasion and on another was found with several petals in her hair, to make cattleya is an insiders term for the physical act of love. It represents beauty, transgression, sensuality and imagination. |
