the last emperor

I loved this film!
Valentino: The Last Emperor gives a fascinating look into the life and career of Valentino Garavani and the conflict between fashion as an art form and as a business.

One of the most interesting aspects of the film was the insight into the 45 year relationship of Valentino and Giancarlo Giammetti. A true partnership, in every sense of the word.

Comedic relief was supplied throughout by Valentino's uncensored outbursts and the glamorous lives of his five adorable pugs.

The movie ends on a sad note with the retirement of Valentino from his haute couture fashion house after 45 years of making history.

A must see!
Merci Jeannie!
