Coco in Mayfair
Aug. 10th, 2009 10:41 pmWe were trasnported to France this evening! We went to see

It was a very good choice. "Coco avant Chanel" is about Coco's life as a young woman and it is quite delightful. I also loved the melancholic score.
We watched the film at the Curzon Mayfair. It wasn't on at our local cinema (Adrian said that the only Coco they know there is "Coco the clown" - but he exaggerates!) plus Adrian was in town because of a dentist's appointment.
The Curzon Mayfair is almost opposite the Saudi Arabian embassy to which a line from the film about being liked only because of one's money could very easily apply.
A walk around Mayfair always makes one feel rather poor, but it's also a chance of seeing some lovely architecture.
