How did orphan dance hall singer Coco become Chanel? Through talent, independence, and the connections of her upper-class lover, who introduced her to women who liked her hats. Well acted and sumptuously costumed, this interesting period piece is as much about the society and mores of the twenties in France as it is about Chanel. I found it involving and entertaining.Rated PG-13. 105 minutes.
