- If I could check out one movie, what should I watch? - Very hard to choose one, so I'm gonna give you two. The first one would be "The Farewell", which is partly set in New York and partly set in China. Great story about a young woman confronting mortality with her grandmother. And the second one, which is a little darker, is nominated for many, many awards, has won already many awards, and is called "Parasite".

- Which movie had the best costume and styling this year? - I have to pick, I think, two films where we felt that the costumes were extraordinary, and the first one would "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" where the costumes were designed by Arianne Phillips, and the look of the movie, which was set at the end of the 60s, early 70s was so like an Alessandro Michele show for Gucci, you could put the two side by side and you couldn't tell the difference.

Little Women

Four sisters come of age in America in the aftermath of the Civil War.
Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
The other film where we loved the way it looked obviously was "Little Women" where the clothes were designed by Jacqueline Durran. It was set in the Civil War era, obviously very Victorian, and if you personally wanted to be inspired by that look to wear for yourself, you might want to look at Brock or Erdem or even Louis Vuitton

Page One: Inside the New York Times

Unprecedented access to the New York Times newsroom yields a complex view of the transformation of a media landscape fraught with both peril and opportunity.
Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
I had so much respect for Andrew Rossi's work with "Page One", the documentary he made about the New York Times, so I think we all felt that we are in the safe hands.

The War Room

A behind-the-scenes documentary about the Clinton for President campaign, focusing on the adventures of spin doctors James Carville and George Stephanopoulos.

I have a great respect for the documentaries R.J. Cutler made in the past. He made a wonderful film about the Clinton's campaign.

Franca: Chaos and Creation

Director Francesco Carrozzini creates an intimate portrait of his mother, Franca Sozzani, the legendary editor-in-chief of Italian Vogue. From the ridiculous to the sublime, her astonishing but often controversial magazine covers have not only broken the rules but also set the high bar for fashion, art and commerce over the past 25 years. From the legendary “Black Issue" and the “Plastic Surgery issue" Sozzani remains deeply committed to exploring subject matter off limits to most in order to shake up the status quo and occasionally redefine the concept of beauty.
Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
Very recently Franca was the subject of a documentary directed by her son, Francesco Carrozzini: Franca: Chaos and Creation. Being the star of a film made by your son can’t have been effortless or easy. During the course of filming, I am told there were some strong disagreements about the direction the movie was taking. Yet the results are both enchanting and insightful.

Joan Didion: The Center Will Not Hold

Griffin Dunne’s years-in-the-making documentary portrait of his aunt Joan Didion moves with the spirit of her uncannily lucid writing: the film simultaneously expands and zeroes in, covering a vast stretch of turbulent cultural history with elegance and candor.
Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
The documentary is bound to be avidly watched, not least by newer generations.

Lean In

‘A landmark manifesto’ New York TimesThe ground-breaking, international bestseller – with over two million copies sold – that launched a new movement to empower women everywhere. Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In has ignited global conversations about gender roles and ambition. Ask most women whether they have the right to equality at work and the answer will be a resounding yes. But ask the same woman if they'd feel confident asking for a raise, promotion, or equal pay, and reticence can creep in.In Lean In, Sheryl Sandberg – Facebook COO and one of Fortune magazine's Most Powerful Women in Business – draws on her own experience of working in some of the world's most successful businesses to show how women can empower themselves, unlock top leadership roles and achieve their full potential.
Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
Have you read the Sheryl Sandberg book? Lean Me? Lean In? Yes. I think that maybe the way things operate out in Silicon Valley is a little different from the way … Maybe we’re very spoiled, Amy, living and working in our industry in New York, because from my personal experience I’ve never felt held back or differentiated against. Maybe I’ve been very lucky … but I really can’t think of a serious incident that I’ve had to deal with on a professional level.

Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
Anna Wintour writes in the forward of the new book “Nostalgia In Vogue” that “I had read too many stories about magazines’ losing image troves, whether because they were poorly maintained, thrown out by accident, or deemed unimportant to posterity. But you need only visit any designer’s studio and see the vintage portraits and fashion photographs pinned to the wall to understand that these pictures carry weight; that they are points of reference and inspiration, not simply commercial images made to sell dresses."

And finally—I am grateful for daffodils! David Hockney’s in particular. The 82-year-old artist, whose work I have always loved, has been producing new paintings on his iPad and they couldn’t be more glorious. His daffodils are extraordinary—a vision of color, optimism and hope—a reminder that these days of isolation won’t last forever and that new ideas are growing all the while.

Roger Federer

Anna Wintour
Editor, Journalist
A mutual friend had arranged for us to meet at Keith McNally’s restaurant, Pastis, knowing that I was a fan. But “fan” is quite an understatement. I have flown across the world for his tournaments; I’ve endured agony when he’s been a set down and ecstasy when he’s stormed back; I have even missed more than the occasional fashion show—all for the privilege of witnessing Roger play what is surely the greatest tennis of all time.
