Gucci's association with Hollywood goes back decades, so it was
fitting that, for the L.A. leg of its 85th birthday celebrations, the
label underscored its commitment to film. On Wednesday, company execs,
along with Gena Rowlands and Sydney Pollack, hosted a party to
celebrate the restoration of the 1974 John Cassavetes classic A Woman
Under the Influence. In the crowd were movie buffs Kyle MacLachlan,
China Chow, and Camilla Belle. "I've seen the film hundreds of times,"
said Chloë Sevigny during cocktail hour on the Hotel Bel-Air's
candlelit front lawn. "The first time I ever came to Los Angeles, I
met Gena and had my photo taken with her. In the picture, there's a
huge halo around her head, which is so telling." With the Cassavetes
flick out of commission while the Film Foundation restores it to its
full glory, guests caught a sneak preview of a different Hollywood
offering. Zooey Deschanel, who will play Janis Joplin in the upcoming
biopic, flexed her vocal chords with a trio of songs. |
