Résumés(1)

Assistant, lover, and muse Lee Miller is the main character of this film, which is one of the few that has been positively identified, because in 1930 Montparnasse magazine published a photo with the description that it is a shot from Man Ray’s upcoming film. This film references to his famous later artwork from 1935 – Porcelain Pipe with Bubble. In other words, this is the film version of the artwork, in which Miller discovers the phallic symbolism of Princesse X, which at the time caused a scandal.
