When I searched for some background information about the
event, I found something, that you probably haven't seen yet.
It's not much, only a few second in the video here.

“Intense, one way to say it,” Eddie described the 2007 film from Tom Kalin.

“It did involve a bit of incest. A little murder.” The film told the story of heiress

and socialite Barbara Daly Baekeland (Moore) and her allegedly incestuous

relationship with her gay son (Redmayne), who eventually murdered his mother.

Despite the heavy material, Redmayne distinctively recalls how his fellow 2015

Oscar winner would keep the mood light while filming. “What’s amazing about

Julianne is she is so funny and so she’s not one of those actors that like takes

themselves into a room and gets into a zone,” he explained. “She’s talking to you…

I remember a talk show host in the U.K. called Jonathan Ross and we were

about to do like the most intense sort of hardcore murder scene and she was talking about Jonathan Ross. You could see Tom, the director, sort of over there going, ‘When do I call action?’ He would call action and she would just go straight into the scene and I would be going… still sort of talking about Jonathan Ross. I’d be like, ‘Oh, no, no, no, no.’ So she made it very easy, actually.”

July 2007 Rome - Valentino 45 Years Anniversary

Eddie Redmayne attended the celebrations with Tara Hacking (his girlfriend at the time).

(x)

I found them in a video about the opening of the exhibition ‘Valentino a Roma: 45 Years of

Style’ at the Ara Pacis in Rome on Friday 6th July 2007. They had a chat with Claire Danes

and Hugh Dancy ... With around 300 garments and rare archive material, the exhibition was

a retrospective that celebrated Valentino’s 45 years of creativity.

Let's play spot them in the red carpet video here
(Eddie and Tara in the background at 3:21)

Mayor Walter Veltroni gave his full support to Valentino's celebrations, permitting the
use of historic venues such as the Santo Spirito in Sassia, founded in 727 as a refuge
centre for pilgrims to the nearby tomb of the apostle Peter, and the Galleria Borghese.
Veltroni, who in fashion parlance is planning a comeback for the Eternal City, is hoping
that the glamour of the weekend will rub off. A retrospective exhibition of Valentino's
designs, which opened at the Ara Pacis museum in Rome on Friday, served to illustrate
the timelessness of his designs: almost all of the dresses would work on a red carpet
today. The retrospective, featuring the best gowns from almost half a century, was a
hard act to follow, but the presentation of Valentino's latest collection on Saturday
provided yet more examples of the designer's best tricks: the precise nip of a waisted
jacket, the opulence of a dress rustling with jet beads and trimmed with ostrich feathers.
A gala ball in the Galleria Borghese followed, beginning with a ballgown-clad
passeggiata beneath the Caravaggios, and culminating in a dinner for 1,000 guests.
