Description

An immersive look into the life of fashion couturier legend Yves Saint Laurent at a creative climax in his career from 1967 to 1977 from the visually explosive director of House of Pleasures, Bertrand Bonello

Running counter to the current strain of wan, mechanical biopics, Bertrand Bonello’s Saint Laurent toys deliriously with the genre’s rules and limitations. Focusing on a dark, hedonistic, wildly creative decade (from 1967 to ’77) in Yves Saint Laurent’s life and career, Bonello considers the couturier (convincingly embodied by Gaspard Ulliel) as a myth, a brand, an avatar of his era. Bonello’s star-studded supporting cast (including Louis Garrel, Léa Seydoux, Jérémie Renier, and Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) serves as first-rate human mise en scène amid a kaleidoscopic torrent of lavish excess, retrospectively pieced together with a Proustian form of fast-and-loose association. Bonello captures this passage of time in Saint Laurent’s life with the unique distortion in which it was lived. (France, 2015, 150 min., R, in French with English subtitles, DCP | Dir.
