Coco Chanel and Nine

So, lately I was very addicted in watching movies. This is one of the things I should have accomplish in doing perfectly this summer. Watch as many movies as I can. YEBA! So last night I convinced myself that I'm going to watch "Nine" because Daniel Day Lewis is in the movie. Though I already had a premonition that this movie will be going to be a super-big-size "flop", I still tried it on. And I was right. The movie is a big failure. It doesn't brought the excitement that I want instead it was draggy and too overrated. I hate Kate Hudson in this movie (the fact is, I hate her in all her movies), doing the stripper dance all over just didn't fit her. Its like imagining me, doing a sexy, stripper thing which is gross, right? Penelope Cruz was hot but she doesn't really portray that "hotness". While the rest, I have no idea what they were doing. I decided to watch other film last night, cause I was getting really bored. All those fancy-stripper dance just doesn't work for me, at least.

So, Coco Chanel saved my night. I really have no idea of Chanel's past life until I watched this movie. An ambitious, young lady from France who dreams of becoming an actress instead becoming this fashion icon whom celebrated and fancied by the era today. Such an inspiring story from rags to riches and a very tragic love life, I must say. Coco says ..."I never intend to marry anyone". So, she never did but at least she still leaves the legacy of her style. Audrey Tautou can act! Heavens! I thought she was Coco resurrected. I love her in this movie. I was planning to see Amelie. His leading men are all good and sexy and they speak French, which is so cool. I have never really a big fan of high class fashion, not that I don't adore them or fancy them its just that dreaming of those 10,000 bucks clothes just won't let me even dare to think about it. They are way, way too expensive. I wonder why they have increased the marketing at such a high markings? Coco Chanel is not a socialite for pete's sake! Make her clothes, shoes, hats and bags more affordable! Or maybe, I should try audition in "Nine" and do some strippy dance to make into Hollywood and do porn! Then, I'll be able to buy some Chanel dresses. Hahaha. Just kidding, of course.
