The Lord is a composer with "Le sacre du printemps" 1913 swim against the bourgeois audience, but attracted the attention of progressive-minded contemporaries. When he threatens to deplete after the Russian Revolution in exile, takes luxury tailor-Coco Chanel on him and his family in their villa. Stravinsky family man embarks on an affair with Chanel, finds passion provoked a break with his wife and at the end but still there as a celebrated composer.
Brilliant art design, interwoven with music and fashion. Already starts with the opening credits to where an Art Deco wallpaper seems to come alive. Lavishly furnished in period style, especially the black and white interiors of Chanel's villa. By blows and roars of Stravinsky compositions, supported by excellent performers, precise cinematic images and inaccessible with character sketches, brittle, a cool artist types that we all draw from the nose or on the faces and gestures must read. This works for some time before it evaporates in the last quarter of an hour drifting fragments and suddenly claimed a sentimental biopic arc, which it has not otherwise. The author says the novel in the making of, in the case of Stravinsky and Chanel would have found two loose parts in order to strive for unity. A daring hypothesis, especially since the film is patently not even quite believe, and it can therefore far less idealistic represents. For Stravinsky it may be something primarily sexual. A classic affair with knowledge (but not approval) of the wife who behaved always loyal to self-abandonment. This time, however, charged the master composer. You do not really know what he thinks of it, for he never expressed it. Chanel contrast, appears to want to be perceived as an artist, strengthen their self-esteem, loneliness that comes with independence, overcome, so it postulates a kinship with Stravinsky, to the just heard also enhance. This makes them appear in a rapid succession with a lot of guys and quite notorious. "She is a collector of people," says the betrayed wife who tries desperately to keep her husband in the family system, before it gives up being. Where the whole thing out now has, how it will end, the film verschwurbelt in the last fifteen minutes to decide to self-loving ways. But ultimately it is only logical, because the whole affair remains a warm mysterious, the film is a design product.
