Dior and I was nothing short of a mesmerizing glimpse into the working of the worlds most celebrated fashion house. This documentary captured eloquently the working of an artists mind. It shows Raf Simmons take a plunge into the couture work.Simmons, a ready-to -wear designer struggles with the art of mastering a couture line; that to, in a short span of 8 weeks. It also shows the language barriers between him (Belgian) and the workers. The behind the scenes gives you a beautiful glimpse into the creation of couture. These are not just garments, but the evolution of thought, love and effort. It portrays the love a creator has for his creation. The last bit was definitely the most enticing of all- the final moments where everyone waited for the models to walk the ramp- with tense faces and bated breaths. If you have a heart for fashion, this is definitely a must watch!

I find that if you have to make a "behind the scenes" style documentary, you really need to have a good story. For fashion nerds, Dior might be an icon, for the rest of us, these are just people, trying very hard to look like they are doing something meaningful. Also, it doesn't help the Raf is repeatedly accused of being a racist, for his refusal to use non white models. It killed the fun for me, as I'm sure it will for others.I think in our day and age, something like this could not exist out of cultural and historical context, including the unpleasant sides of the world of fashion, especially considering they also had on their patrol John Galliano.

'DIOR AND I': Two and a Half Stars (Out of Five)A documentary film about acclaimed fashion designer Raf Simons; and his work as the creative director, for Christian Dior S.A. (better known simply as Dior). It was written and directed by Frederic Tcheng and stars Simons (as himself). The movie also features cameos by Marion Cotillard, Isabelle Huppert, Sharon Stone and Jennifer Lawrence (which is the main reason I saw the film); as themselves as well. Although the movie is consistently beautiful to look at, it's also extremely boring. The film focuses on Belgian fashion designer Raf Simons. It begins in 2012, when he first replaced Bill Gaytten, as the creative director for Dior, and it follows him around as he passionately directs the French fashion house's employees. The filmmakers interview Simons, as well as several other Dior fashion artists. It all leads up to the debut of Simons' first 'haute couture' collection. The movie is somewhat interesting, but really slow-paced, and mostly a bore (at least in my opinion). I do like watching beautiful women, in beautiful and glamorous clothes, but I'm not that interested in the 'behind the scenes' of how the fashion industry functions. This should be an interesting movie, for those that are though. Jennifer Lawrence only briefly appears, in a nonspeaking part, as an audience member at the big final show.Watch our movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: https://youtu.be/bOI7ZdxfHTQ

Dior and I didn't show you the glam, the gossips and the celebrity list, they just showed you their heartbeat taking an event as an example.The sound track was brilliantly incorporated the mood and the pulse, now I'm looking at Ha-Yang Kim , and it was surprisingly mesmerizing that I cried when seeing the slow motion walk where the models walking down in sterling dress in the ocean of flowers, I can only imagine the heavenly smell of it, which is very clever as it resonated the memory of their fragrance.If all a legend has is just stories then museum should be a better home for it, HEART is what people want to see being ripped open before they do the same with their wallets. Not sure how realistic the portrait is of the Dior House in the movie, but bravo producer Guillaume de Roquemaurel and writer / director Frédéric Tcheng, every angle and line mattered, and they brought such a big impact. It is not for everyone, but it is a good downside of it.
