Did anyone else watch Coco Chanel?
I couldn't watch the tv movie premiere about Coco Saturday because Lissa was here and she wanted to watch Balto again, but, they showed it again last night and I made some hot Earl Grey and settled down eagerly to see Shirley MacLaine as Coco! The most influential fashion designer of the 20th century..I was so excited. Fuck..they turned it into an epic romance and Shirley McLaine was only in 20% of it, The rest was Barbora Bobulova as a young Coco. Barbara is beautiful, but, I don't give a crap about love stories, I wanted to know what Coco's inspiration was, how she handled runway shows and a ton of other stuff about her work. WTF did I expect from a Lifetime move, huu? Those assholes cater to silly lonely women who read Harliquin romances. It was just another disappointment. I wish tv movie makers would stop thinking all women are into romance and fluff. Suck my ass Lifetime.

Well, literature is dead, eh?
We want a jiggle and a larapin' good time 'twixt the sheets.
Creativity equals open mind.
We don't want open minds.
We want uniforms and barcodes.
We want our news filtered to only show cutesy and scary.
We, as a nation, are so tired out, blinded, and baffled by what we are subjected to, on an hourly basis, that the only thing we want to think about is "something else".
...but, seriously, folks...
Someone needs to make a real movie about her! & Giani Versace' too. Halston. Sooo many designers I'd watch a movie about. I will have to catch this one on reruns. I fell asleep early Saturday night and missed this. I am a huge fan of Project Runway tho, so designers are interesting to me. Such divas!
did you like Balto? that is one of the cutest kid movies ever.....
was her 'I love fucking with Nazis and I admire them' part included?
I watched bits and pieces of it, and to quote the great Joanne Worley, "Talk about BOR-ING!"
Not much in the movie except her romantic life. Shirley wasn't much of the movie, either. I too wanted to see I guess more of a documentary about how she became the icon she did. Could really care less about her sheet experience.
