Coco

So its thanksgiving day and i have been snuggled up in bed with my sister watching the film Coco before Chanel. Im waiting for the call from downstairs to say the turkey is ready but im hoping i have time instead to tell you all about it while its fresh in my mind and its ideas are running through my veins. oh yes and be warned im going to totally spoil the movie for you so if you want a surprise dont read on....

In all honesty it was a little sad. Coco's determination left her a little too proud to accept happiness into her life, and the one time she did, it failed her as she found her one and only love dead. when she was with this man was one of the few times in the movie she really smiled. but her story of success in her career was completely inspiring and empowering. coming from an orphanage and becoming the icon she is through complete and utter passion and devotion really makes you want to set your goals high and remember whats important.

I loved the camera angles and themes throughout the movie which were portrayed professionally and subtly like a good movie should. and of course it helped that Coco was played by the stunning little Audrey TauTou from everyones favorite Amelie. Her big brown eyes and pale ivory skin quite seriously stole my heart. arghhh turkeys ready........ happy thanksgiving x
