I cannot wait to see this film. Here are two clips from the movie taken from youtube.com. In the first clip, we can see Valentino’s cute dogs. It seems that the film will be with a great sense of humor too! And the second clip shows us a glimpse of the relationship between Valentino and Giancarlo.
Valentino: The Last Emperor is a documentary about the life, career and dramatic closing of last fashion show of one of Italy’s greatest designers, Valentino Garavani. The film is produced and directed by Matt Tyrnauer who is a New York writer and filmmaker. The documentary is both intimate and engaging and has received great reviews from its premiers. At the heart of the film is a touching life long love story between Valentino and his partner in both business and life of 50 years, Giancarlo Giammetti. Although, it was not Tyrnauer’s intention to center the documentary around their relationship, things just happened that way. ” [Valentino] is a born dreamer and the last true couturier, who let us in on his creative process and also let us in on the life he built around him to sustain this process,” says Tyrnauer. Truly, Valentino’s designs are not just known for their glamour and elegance but for their attention to detail and delicacy; qualities that only a great designer with devoted love towards his work could possess.
