Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent is an overview of a life lived by arguably one of the greatest French fashion icons of our time. Spanning from 1958 until 2008, this film gives the audience a glimpse into Yves Saint Laurent’s (Pierre Niney) career as well as his unique relationship with devoted love and business partner, Pierre Bergé (Guillaume Gallienne).

Yves Saint Laurent is full of potential: bright actors, beautifully-curated costumes and the cinematography is on-point. The soundtrack is perfection, full of original works, classical compositions and even experimental jazz.

With 77 original garments on loan from Pierre Bergé-Yves Saint Laurent Foundation, this movie is a visual banquet let down by a story that gives nothing to bite into.

This is the story everyone has heard many times over: the tortured psyche behind genius and the runaway success bestowed upon brilliance. (AG)
