Английская Википедия:House of Cardin
House of Cardin is a 2019 Franco/American documentary film directed by P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes. The film details the life and career of Pierre Cardin, the Italian-born French designer and futurist whose influence shaped the global economy and revolutionized the fashion industry. Chronicling Cardin's humble beginnings, his immigration from Mussolini's Italy and his coming of age in Nazi occupied France, the young tailor arrives in Paris in 1945 and begins his enchanted entrée into the world of haute couture by way of Jeanne Paquin, Jean Cocteau, Elsa Schiaparelli and Christian Dior. Opening his own house in 1950, Cardin eventually introduces prêt-à-porter and envisions future fashion. He establishes the power of the designer logo and takes his name in design to explore many avenues of lifestyle, including furniture, housewares and a record label. A frustrated actor, Cardin transitions into overseeing the long-running experimental theater/cultural center Espace Cardin for half a century, as well as developing an annual music and theater Festival de Lacoste while expanding his brand globally. Cardin's personal relation with long-time partner Andre Oliver and his love affair with Jeanne Moreau are also explored.
The film's score is written by James Peter Moffat and is produced by Cori Coppola. It premiered at the 2019 Venice Film Festival in the Giornate degli Autori with Mr. Cardin in attendance. The French premiere marked the first public event in Paris during the COVID-19 lockdowns at Théâtre du Châtelet on September 15, 2020. It was purchased theatrically for Australia, New Zealand, France, Russia, Italy, Japan, Brazil, Spain and China and was released in the US through Utopia.[1] House of Cardin swept the 2019 Cinémoi International Fashion Film Awards (IFFAs) winning the Lifetime Achievement Award for Pierre Cardin, Best Fashion Feature Film, Best Directors of a Fashion Feature film for P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes and a nomination for Best Cinematography of a Fashion Feature Film.[2]
Background
Filmmakers P. David Ebersole and Todd Hughes were in Paris to promote their documentary Mansfield 66/67 when they went to the Pierre Cardin Boutique on the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré hoping to get a photo with their idol. They were avid collector's of the designer's furniture and lifestyle design, even owning the AMC Javelin Cardin designed in 1972. After a career of refusing to participate on a documentary, on September 6, 2017, Pierre Cardin chose Eberole and Hughes to produce and direct the authorized film about his life and career upon their first meeting at Minim's, the brasserie of Cardin's Maxim's. The film subsequently premiered at the Venice Film Festival on September 6, 2019, exactly two years to the day later.
