- 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.

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.

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.

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.
