JAMES FRANCO “walking after midnight” for Stuart Weitzman

Shoe designer Stuart Weitzman was behind the making of a fashionable short film directed by actor (and so much more) James Franco. The “Walking After Midnight” film series was released in its entirety via the brand’s Facebook page, the result was captivating. The Patsy Cline song of the same name was made more modern by the band Girl in a Coma, whose sound helped set the stage for the sexy and playful small screen debut for which the ‘80s film Mondo New York served as an inspiration.

The short features supermodel Petra Nemcova rocking Stuart Weitzman stilettos and boots as she strolls along New York City’s chic downtown scene. With stops at Le Baron nightclub, Peels restaurant, the Hole gallery, and Freeman’s Alley, Weitzman’s woman is captured with confidence in every stride. To celebrate the release, Stuart Weitzman is holding a contest called Win and Walk On! with six Facebook VIPs getting to step out in their favorite pair from the film.
