On May 24, 2009, a movie debuted at the Cannes Film Festival about two world famous celebrities. They were the famed French designer Coco Chanel and Russian musician Igor Stravinsky. The movie was selected as the Closing Firm of the festival. It was simply titled Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky.
This movie is a French film that is based on the novel written by Chris Greenhalgh in the year 2002. It is a fictional novel; however many feel that the novel and movie are fact based. The film is generally about the alleged affair between Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky that they engaged in while living in Paris, France in 1920.
This movie was released the same year that another film about the famed designer was released. The other movie, Coco avant Chanel, starred Audrey Tautou as Coco Chanel. Directed by Anne Fontaine, this film was not as well received as the one about the stars' love affair.
The storyline of the movie is an intriguing look into the affair. It begins in Paris, France. It is 1913 and Coco Chanel is in attendance at the premier of Igor Stravinsky's outrageous ballet, The Rite of Spring. The musical scores and the racy choreography offended some audience members who preferred more classical and demure ballet.
His controversial production caused the most famous riot ever to break out in the audience. Once of the audience members that was not appalled was Coco Chanel. In fact, she rather enjoyed the ballet and is interested in Igor after seeing him storm out of the theater. However, she does not get a chance to meet him and it is a long time before they run into each other again.
It is seven years before the designer and the musician come into contact again. In 1920 Coco is a world renowned designer with a successful business. However, she is mourning her last lover, Arthur Capel. She meets Igor when he is forced to flee from Russia after the Russian Revolution. He has fled to France for safety. There is an instant attraction between the two.
Coco allows Igor, his children, and his lovely wife to stay in her villa that is on the outskirts of Paris. During the time he and his family are living there, Coco and Igor begin to have an affair. During this affair, both of their work becomes greater due to the love and passion that they feel for one another. It is during this time that Chanel No. 5, Coco's most famous perfume is released. It is also during this period that Igor Stravinsky starts to produce his best work. His music is filled with passion and is somewhat freeing, more than before he began the triste with France's most well known designer. As with any deceptive affair, the couple is soon caught by Igor's wife and the affair comes to an end.
Jan Kounen directed the movie and Chris Greenhalgh wrote the screenplay along with the book. The movie was filmed in three languages, French, English, and Russian. It stars Ann Mouglalis as Coco Chanel and Mads Mikkelson as Igor Stravinsky. Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky opened around the world after it's premier at the Cannes Film Festival. The initial reviews were mixed. The film was said to be sophisticated but it lacked imagination. It also was not as developed as the book and left the viewer wanting more.
