Coco Before Chanel Screening at the Skirball Cultural Center Tonight


Sneak-preview screening! Coco Before Chanel is the story of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel (Audrey Tatou), who began her life as a headstrong orphan and through an extraordinary journey became the legendary couturier who embodied the modern woman. Shot in the Paris region and in Normandy, this elegant film portrays the formative years of Chanel’s life, spanning her experiences as a young girl growing up in the heart of France, a cabaret performer, a humble seamstress, a skinny courtesan, a woman in love, and ultimately a rebel, who found the conventions of her time oppressive and became a timeless symbol of freedom, success, and style.

The film also stars Alessandro Nivola, Benoit Poelvoorde, Emmanuelle Devos, and Marie Gillain. Directed by Anne Fontaine. (France, 2009, 110 min. Rated PG-13. In French with English subtitles. In theaters September 25.)
