A Film Review of The September Issue
This paper reviews The September Issue, a film where Anna Wintour, a Vogue editor, unveils her eyes and her private life to the world. The documentary was done by Cutler R.J, and it centers around the massive Vogue 2007 fall issue. Together with his crew, Cutler spent thirty-two weeks in the consecrated offices of Condé Nast building up some 18000 minutes of recording later compacted to a feature span (Lee 2). The outcome has been hugely impressive backed by the fact that no motion picture featuring Leon André Talley has ever been unsuccessful. Witnessing Anna’s majordomo drag Louis Vuitton accessories worth several dollars to a tennis court as he pontificates on the entirety of his standard of living provides an excellent insight to their lifestyle. Stuffed by scenes from such flaming characters, the film offers a detailed account of how these actors tirelessly work on the fall’s trend bible (Lee 3). What was more interesting were the several ego trips and the perfect outfits.
The September Issue is a twisted mix-and-match event, an ill-fitting collection of independently remarkable pieces. The narrative of Wintour is not fully revealed and probably will never be because her hypersensitivity profoundly compromises access to the media. There are no misspoken impressions or stray hairs jammed by The September Issue, and it therefore does not come as a surprise that it presents as sympathetic to Wintour. The production is less persuasive as an unguarded tale and more as a series of acts of half-truths. It is not what people get to see of Anna at work or home but rather what she wants to be revealed that comprised the undisclosed drama of the movie.
The other colossal account is with the production of the periodical, which is an expansively exclusive and challenging ordeal. This unfolds entailing many captivating demonstrations of money, taste, power, artistic turf war, and reputation. The September Issue, similar to the Beverly Hills Chihuahua, is an overdue piece of pre-recession merriment. Just like the sad and apparitional State of Play, it is an exemplar of the growing subgenre of reminiscence (Lee 4). As Cutler tries to carry through this storyline, he works on an impressive subplot on the relation between Grace Coddington and Anna.
Grace is Vogue’s precious, universally honored, and imaginative director. As an ex-model, Grace started working at Vogue at around the same time as Anna, and her dynamics bear all the acceptance, devotion, and delicate give-and-takes of their 20-year matrimony. Grace’s constant struggle to rescue her editorial career from her impulsive editor’s red pen results in a brittle comedy. This struggle represents another instance of The September Issue’s shame of riches and incapability to redeem them.
The biggest confrontation during the production involved the cover blueprint featuring Miller Sienna. Even
