Coco Before Chanel (2009)The fashionistas were out in force at the film festival today. Apparently it was one of the few movies sold out within the first week, as the shallowness of the local community rears its head.
Andrey Tatou is one my fave actresses, and does a fab job of portraying Coco Chanel in her early years. The period of the story starts with her and her sister being dropped at the orphanage by their father, and continues until the setup of her successful fashion empire. Essentially though, it is a love story.
Beautiful scenery and clothes, it was a gentle film after the more raw Samson and Delilah. 4/5
