she is a river

I'm a woman and I love women's movies,
and this one is a women's movie through and through.

Women like Chanel were truly unique in that era.
Others wear complicated floor-length dresses, but she prefers trousers.
Others are colorful, she prefers dead black.
When others show their chests and backs, she must be wrapped up without any curves.
Others have long hair fluttering, so she simply cut her short hair neatly.

It looks so out of place, but such a woman is so stubborn and beautiful! Damn beautiful!

Throughout the film is the "self" of Chanel.
She wanted to leave the bar, so she went to the officer who liked her, and I thought she was just taking a gamble, but she did.
Later, she met true love. Although the man who loved her couldn't marry her, he helped her to open a clothing store in Paris, and her career was finally on the right track.

Chanel is the kind of woman who knows what she wants, knows how to get it, and then finds ways to get it.

Looking at the biography, Chanel had a lot of male friends in her life. Of course, I think she should also have a lot of female friends. To these friends, she is like a big river. All the people and things she has experienced are like tributaries flowing into the big river. But the flow of the river remains the same, and her strong ego dominates her life.

This is the so-called life and the power of life!

    In this version, Coco is ugly as a weird woman who only knows to wear men's large clothes every day! ! ! ! ! ! !

    The Chinese translation is taken for granted. Anne Fontaine's narrative angle is all about love, Coco's love for Boy, and Balsan has almost become the opposite. Such a slanted tone makes the audience have the illusion of Coco Bichi, which is not only untrue but also makes the emotional development of the characters lame. In terms of presentation alone, it is quite flat. Her designs and her aesthetics have no reason, they seem to be natural accomplishments. Tatu's eyes are playful, but it's not enough
