Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky

Gorgeous period costumes highlight this well-acted, engaging, factually inspired, 2009 film about the destructive, self-serving relationship that develops when famous, head strong French designer Coco Chanel (Anna Mouglalis) invites down-on-his-luck Russian composer Igor Stravinsky (Mads Mikkelsen) whom she met in 1913 at his disastrous premier of The Rite of Spring, plain-Jane wife (Yelena Morozova), and four children (Sophie Hasson, Clara Guelblum, Maxime DaniƩlou, and Nikita Ponomarenko) to live at her country estate outside Paris in 1920.
