Coco avant Chanel

Since this month pop quizzes center around movie trivia I thought I’d stick with the trend and dish the gossip on a bio-pic about one of my favorite ladies of all time – Coco Chanel. Who doesn’t love her? She is a fashion icon and I fully expect generations of women after me to continue to worship her. According to IMDB, the movie is still in pre-production but is slated to come out sometime in 2008. Coco has been cast and will be played by French beauty Audrey Tatou. I think the casting is genius and I am totally excited that they choose an actual Frenchwoman to play her. I will definitely be going to see this movie when it comes out. What about you guys? What do you think about the casting choice? Will you go see Coco avant Chanel?

  1. I didn’t know that there was going to be a movie about Coco herself, but now that I do AND that it’s going to star Audrey Tatou, I will DEFINITELY check it out! She was wonderful in Amelie and I’m sure she’ll be a knock out in this film as well 🙂 Thanks for the movie tidbit for next year!

  2. I couldn’t agree more! I love Audrey Tatou and think she’s a very appropriate choice. I can’t wait to see the film. I spent a month working in France earlier this year and have been in withdrawl since then.

  3. there’s no other actress that can’t play coco as well as audrey, because she’s a great actress I can’t hardly wait to go the teather!!
