InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Santrise N. Webb Jalil Lespert effortlessly brings 50 and 60's Parisian Society to life through his adaptation of Yves Saint-Laurent but more importantly provides candid and as authentic as possible biographical content detailing the trials and tribulations Saint-Laurent endured as a young man trying to find his way in two separate dichotomies: the world and fashion world.Yves Saint-Laurent, as iconic as we now recognize him from a consumer perspective, was very much human and fell victim to the exact perils of life that trivialize our human experience universally.He was unequivocally an artist: one with creativity that tinkered the fine line between genius and insanity in his every interaction both personally and professionally. The film brings this reality to life and introduces viewers to the icon as early as age 21 before the fame, glamor, and romanticized images of him prevalent today.I was rendered speechless by numerous scenes where his life and relationship were illustrated intimately as it was a bit realer than anything I've ever viewed before in a film environment. Nevertheless, it tremendously enhanced the production value and gave me a deeper appreciation of the production and cast ensemble.I genuinely appreciate how the film portrayed his discontentment with his life in pursuit of being recognized for his talent during his tenure with Dior and beyond.It gives perspective to anyone trying to find their way or niche in life because the story illustrates the grim reality that the road to success is often rocky and under massive construction and also supports the notion that those who persevere inevitably forge ahead to succeed.If it weren't for his hardships and lacks thereof both personally and professionally we potentially would not know of the brand internationally revered and respected as the iconic Yves Saint-Laurent.I urge anyone interested in a glimpse of his earlier years to view the film and anyone with curiosity about his plight as a designer.

alvaroruin A bit slow, well directed, certainly uncomfortable to see for some for its homosexual scenes (to some people), cast is good, and the soundtrack is AMAZING. Might have been what kept me watching it steadily.It shows the darkest side of Yves life but sadly it battles between showing too much, and not showing much at all, so it kind of half-asses the most compelling aspect of the hole story; and as mentioned before, it's uncomfortable to watch because the film approaches it with the same weirdness as the prolonged sex scenes.Otherwise, a bit of background on... everyone?... might have been useful on the development of the characters or at least ONLY on Yves'.

opuim_eater The worst movie after "Wilde" 1996 with Stephen Fry and Jude Law. The true about Great Yves St Laurent is in his works it is not in his sexuality. This movie is the second after Wilde that synthesizes two genres - biography with gay soft porno. As a cinema it is zero. We can watch it on the level of the texture - a big misunderstanding, lack of consistency that materialize the psychotic moment in life of Yves.But why this should be interesting, why this orgiastic presentation of the life of genius. I prefer Yves Saint Laurent Aufgehoben in movies, f.ex Visconti 's collaboration with Laurent- Berger, Joseph Losey's ("Romantic English Woman), Claude Lelouch, etc.The authors only superficially placed the topic of neurotic obsession, hysteria and they ferociously fail to do something with this, so why they mention it at all..use it or lose it. Again, not much to be said about such biographic soft porn melodrama. I am sure Berge and Slimane are dismissing the movie

kosmasp The name alone should be something people recognize. For women but even for men the name should mean something. Same goes for me, though I was never aware of the story behind the man who created a trademark. It's a bit of a cliché that men who "make" dresses, are more likely to be drawn to men. But the movie does a good job of finding a balance and showing off a real human being. One with many flaws and vices, as many as virtues I suppose.So even if you're not aware of the man himself, you might find something intriguing here. And the beautiful Charlotte is a great companion to break into the male dominated world, where obviously the focus lies on our main actor. And a terrific job he's doing here, always balancing many aspects of a life that while many have longed for, none would have wanted to turn exactly like that. Being with people, does not take away sadness or loneliness ... but watching this playing out, is more than incredible.
