Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky

Name: Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky
Genre: Drama, Romance
Duration: 120 min
Rating: 6.1

Paris 1913. Coco Chanel is infatuated with the rich and handsome Boy Capel, but she is also compelled by her work. Igor Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring is about to be performed. The revolutionary dissonances of Igor's work parallel Coco's radical ideas. She wants to democratize women's fashion; he wants to redefine musical taste. Coco attends the scandalous first performance of The Rite in a chic white dress. The music and ballet are criticized as too modern, too foreign. Coco is moved but Igor is inconsolable.

<em>'Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky'</em> is nothing all that bad, there just isn't that much overly good about it either - in my opinion, of course. The acting, spearheaded by Mads Mikkelsen and Anna Mouglalis, is all fair, the music is actually solid (the film's strongest element, I'd say) though everything else is either underwhelming or simply average. This 2009 release looks good onscreen, however I needed more from it personally. Mikkelsen & Mouglalis put in shifts but I wouldn't say the overall acting elevates the film all that much, which was very much needed due to a rather dull plot. I don't mind a slow pace, but there needs to be some sort of pay-off at the end... there just isn't here. It was cool to learn a bit more about these two people, mind you.
