Lifetime Television presents “Coco Chanel“, premiering Saturday September 13th at 8:00pm. This epic true story stars Shirley MacLaine. (hmm, not really the first actress that would come to mind to play Coco but she was really good in Steel Magnolias!) I ADORE Chanel so am sooo excited to see this!
“Coco Chanel” is the rags-to-riches tale charting the rise of one of the most influential fashion icons of the 20th century. From her humble childhood in a French orphanage, through her early days as a young dressmaker’s assistant, to her passionate and tragic love with a dashing Englishman, and ultimately to her success as a pioneering icon, “Coco Chanel” is the story of a glamorous woman who was hard to love and harder to ignore.
Also starring is Malcolm McDowell and Barbora Bobulova. Check your local listings for air times.
I saw it and it’s really good!
