Given that the scene needed that Birkin to be broken, I'd say it was a good call to use a fake one! :P The thought of seeing an original Birkin go to waste like that is heartbreaking!
I think they may have used a genuine bag. Sex and the city features fashionable brands and designers, and may have used the movie to make themselves known. Wouldn't it be useless to have watched the series and the movies if they featured replica fashion pieces (maybe illegal)?
I remember this scene and thought that a birk couldnt possibly break just like that... pero mas napansin ko naman na wala nang mas fefake pa sa mga extra... di nagdrool at di sha _______ with her skin, chest and all!!! oops may isa pala. XONie
I think this bag is really a birkin but of low quality. . . First because it easily Got broken just like that and second because you're not allowed to actually use the brand in onw show or movie for that matter without asking permission. . . It is also an advertisement for them. . . Question is it a good pr bad advertisement? Who cares? It's sex and the city, only signature brands are welCome tp that show/movie. . .
The probably used a real Birkin for other scenes and a fake one for the scene where they had to destroy it. That's nothing new.
In movies, don't they always create copies of the real thing for scenes where they'll blow something up or destroy it? Cars, houses, dresses, etc. So how is this an issue?
There are equipment (like cars) more expensive than original birkins which were used and destroyed in many movies, especially action movies. This should be wake up call to those fashionistas who buy these excessively priced bags. You just pay for the bragging rights. It's not worth it. Men are not impressed by these bags.
Guys! LOL this is soooo old news! the same night the movie came out, bag enthusiasts have already debated on this. the verdict: two bags!!! they used an original birkin NOT until the market scene wherein Samantha had to play tug-of-war. try pressing pause or making screencaps and see that the fake one has longer handles ;)
It's reasonable that they did not. It would be such a waste to ruin an authentic bag for a short scene.

ReplyDeleteA very blatant fake actually. But who would want to see two people playing tug-of-war with a real Birkin? Sakit sa puso nun.

It depends. If they made a fake birkin, it's fine. But if they bought a fake birkin, it's bad.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw that movie, I really wished they used a fake Birkin. Really. Tama lang na fake ang ginamit nila noh!
ReplyDeleteIt would be a pity if they used a genuine Birkin...tug of war, uh oh! No way!!!
ReplyDeletewell this one's so 2010. i guess you found the idea here: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/anybody-noticed-sex-and-city-2-fake-birkin-596038.html
ReplyDeletewell anyway, at least diba hindi masakit sa puso na yung cost. kesa naman sirain ang totoong birkin.
well if you don't publish this then you must be guilty. LOL

anu naman kung fake eh sisirain din naman.. hindi ito big deal/issue..
ReplyDeleteSayang naman kung tunay pero I agree malamang sa ibang scenes tunay naman na lalo na kung ibabalandra hehehe :) I love samantha!
ReplyDeletecrazy yung director or producer kung papayag na orig ang gagamitin sa scene na yun
ReplyDeleteits called a PROP.
ReplyDeleteIt's just right that they used a fake one for that short scene wherein it will be broken. Kaloka pag tunay ginamit nila!

ReplyDeleteof course it's a fake birkin. who in their right mind would use a real birkin and then tear it up like that?
