The two-part 16-minute Dior 'Lady Blue Shanghai' David Lynch short film is finally here. It's part of a series of conceptual and dramatic ad campaigns with French actress Marion Cotillard. The film was debuted by John Galliano who also provided the art direction for 'Lady Blue Shanghai' this past weekend at the Christian Dior Cruise 2011 fashion show in Shanghai.
