VENICE: Valentino: The Last emperor - Film and Party



La Fenice: The World Premiere of the Movie “Valentino: The Last Emperor.” A standing ovation for Valentino Garavani after the showing of the film Valentino: The Last Emperor, at La Fenice, opera house, during the 65th Venice Film Festival. Matt Tyrnauer, who directed the movie, followed around Valentino for two years. The movie is a realistic and often amusing insight into the world of Valentino, his forty-five years in Haute Couture, his lifestyle, his dogs and his love for beautiful things “I love beautiful women, beautiful dogs and beautiful furniture.” Valentino confesses.
