coco avant chanel

went to cheap tuesday movie with snowflake the other day...
since SATC, the next anticipated fashion chic flick

coco avant chanel

we went to cremorne orpheum for the experience... the clientele of mostly well to do baby boomers (or older) - they consisted of either lovely dovey date pairs, old husband and wife couple, groups of women 2,3,4.

and a curious observation - 80% of them had boought a choc top! (that didn't include me, though that was what snowflake did the first thing she got there)



there was live piano music while we waited to get in...



and the theatre like stage and curtain...



the decadent lighting...




as to "coco avant chanel"?
margaret was right, 3 stars... i thought it was worth 6/10 too...
the fashion came the last 5 min of the film... audrey T was v elegant, but I prefer the dress sense of her character after moving to paris... the DIY refashioning she did was too "peasant" & baggy for my liking...
