Well it depict the first years of her life, it stop just before she get Chanel- A business woman who built an empire.
Tautou as Coco look very alike, but I just can´t stand her.
With Amelie she was ok after that she had retired.

Now the film is slow, slow, mortally slow most of the time, with very few moments of pleasure.
In real life Coco was bitchy, hard, and the lover of the German head of secret service of the...SS.
She tried some mean actions against Jewish businessman who partly own the rights for her perfume ( The infamous Nr. 5 ) Now she conspired to make a kind of peace treaty with England...

Would she not has been befriended with Churchill, she would has been in serious difficulties after the war!!!
She got to live the next ten years in Switzerland.

Well no one is all black nor all white.. Just like the rest of us. Most of us.
