Valentino - the Last Emperor - DVD (2008)
I never got to see this one at the 2009 film festival, so was glad to hear that it was finally out on DVD. I enjoy a bit of reality filming, and had this been fiction one would hardly believe the story or characters involved.
Valentino is beautiful, gorgeous and engaging. The behind the scenes look at the fashion world was amazing, especially the Amazon models, the relentless press asking inane questions and of course the infighting. He certainly had amazing homes, and I loved the little peeks of things like spray painting patches on the grass lawns green before a big party, and making the pugs have their teeth brushed and breath spray - poor dogs.
A 4/5, and a good Friday night dvd watch, certainly outdoing the crappolla festival that is New Zealand tv at the moment.
