Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky
Director: Jan Kounen. France 2009. 132 mins.
Starring: Mads Mikkelsen, Anna Mouglalis, Elena Morozova, Natacha Lindinger.
Having attended the landmark performance of Stravinsky’s “The Rite of Spring” in 1913, Chanel, the famous designer, befriends the great revolutionary composer and offers the penniless musician and his family refuge in her country mansion in 1920. What ensues is a beautifully judged story about the mutual attraction between two artists, finely balanced by the loyalty and love that Stravinsky feels for his wife and family. The film embraces the brilliance of these two rebels, dissecting the intimacies of their personal lives with an empathy that leaves the viewer reaching for superlatives.
Starts at 8pm ADM: €6
