Movie Coco Avant Chanel

Coco Avant Chanel



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 for her.

A cabaret performer with a weak voice who sings to an audience 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 oppressive, 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.

Audrey Tautou in Coco Before Chanel

Coco Before Chanel tells the story of the life of one of fashion's most influential designers before she established her classic brand; a rich, dark prequel to the glamour and elegance that the woman herself came to stand for.

Having spent her early years in an orphanage, the young Chanel ekes out a meagre living sewing and singing in bars, takes up with a rich man, and falls in love. Audrey Tautou plays Chanel in this biopic directed by Anne Fontaine and filmed in French with English subtitles.

The film is as austere and plain as Coco's prototype dresses, although it does contain a series of vibrant, lovingly detailed snapshots of her energy, contrasted with the grim and barren landscapes of her personal relationships.

But even though Coco's own life story is exciting and full of potential, the film's treatment of it is dull.

In our eyes, Tautou can do no wrong, but here, her signature pout is humourless thanks to the way the character is written.

Coco seems to suffer from a permanent case of PMS - it's hard to warm to a character that's petulant, self-centred and condescending towards those whom she judges to be fashion victims.

By the end of the film, you still don't feel as if you have even come close to understanding this Coco Chanel, the one with Audrey Tautou's dark, inscrutable eyes. Perhaps the film is superficial, having taken on more than it can handle.

Perhaps the mystery of the woman in the couture jacket and the pearls is part of the point.
