Lagerfeld Confidentiel (2007)

Director Rodolphe Marconi supposedly amassed over 200 hours of digital and Super 8 footage over the two years that he tailed Karl Lagerfeld. However, he clearly couldn't summon the courage to ask the über-designer a meaningful or even direct question and, consequently, this obsequious portrait only allows us to see what the Chanel supremo is willing to exhibit. Whether fussing over rings in his apartment, sketching designs, supervising runway shows or photographing models and celebs like Nicole Kidman, Lagerfeld insists on being the centre of attention and Marconi is happy to indulge his self-obsession. It's a pity, as occasionally in the spotlight interviews, Lagerfeld hints that he might have been more forthcoming on topics such as his mother, his art and his sex life if he'd been pressed just a little harder.
