Coco avant Chanel 2010
English 2010 (USA)
Story
A little girl who is sent with her sister to an orphanage in the heart of France, who waits in vain every Sunday for her father to come to her...
A cabaret performer with a weak voice who sings to an audiance of drunken soldiers...
A humble seamstress, who stitches hems at the back of a provincial tailor's shop...
A young, skinny courtesan, to whom protector Etienne Balsan offers a safe haven, amongst the idle and decadent...
A woman in love who knows she will never be anyone's wife, refusing marriage even to Boy Capel, the man who returned her love...
A rebel who finds the conventions of her time opperssive, and instead dresses in her lovers' clothes...
This is the story of Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel, who begins her life as a headstrong orphan, and through an extraordinary journey becomes the legendary couturier who embodied the modern woman and became a timeless symbol of success, freedom and style.
The film begins in the late eighteen-hundreds with the young Chanel being literally carted off to an orphanage with her sister, and moves on to her life as a gaudy saloon performer whose real talents lie in dressmaking. From the outset it is clear that although poor, Coco is defiant, headstrong and really ‘something else’. She also displays a kind of elegance like no other, even the aristocratic women in their feathers and frills. The film slowly moves through her rise to high-end designer of simplistic, elegant clothing in a time where a) women didn’t work, and b) the phrase ‘less is more’ was not yet coined.
