"First Act"
"First Scene: The Hat Seller"
- Why throw those things like this? - Sorry, Granny
- Feeling bored? - Yes
Give me the hat
- Tell you a story like before? - But not the Little Princess or Cinderella
No, I'll tell you a story you'll hear for the first time
It is about this hat and its maker
After I tell you, you'll see why this hat is very dear to me
Agree
Deal, who finds a home first comes for the other
- But I want to go with you - That won't do
- Why, dad? - Don't worry, take care of yourself
"I will tell you the story It is a sad genuine feeling"
"A father leaves his daughter at an orphanage"
"He promises to visit her each month"
"But many months pass and time stole years of her life"
"She didn't realize how tough this longing was"
"She grew too fast"
"and shouldered tragedies, fear and endurance"
"Girls like her should be in their mothers' arms"
"But Chanel was suffering from much woes and overthinking"
"She worked hard making adorned hats"
"to sell in the streets..."
- Let me see it - Let go of the hat
- I won't! - Let go of the hat, I tell you
- I'll buy it - It's too expensive for you, smarty!
The hat!
"In the streets"
- Let go of the hat! - I won't
- I'm telling you, let go of the hat - I won't
- Let go of the hat! - I won't
- You'll let go of the hat! - I won't
I'll bury you here!
- Let go of the hat! - I won't
- Let go of the hat! - No
I'm telling you... let go of the hat
- Let go of the hat! - Enough, he's gone
Are you okay?
I'm okay
- Did he try to rob you? - Yes
And you let him escape
- Did he take anything from you? - No, but he got the hats dirty
- He got the hats dirty? - Yes, he got the hats dirty
This is not a petty matter, by the way
What?
- Is this jacket made of wool? - I guess so
- Can I see it? - Please
The collar is very nice
The inner lining is disgusting!
Does it look good on me?
A bit big
A bit too big
No problem, can be fixed
You're weird, but there is something about you, what's your name?
Coco, would you like to repeat my words again as a question?
Coco... Coco, Coco?
Coco, my name is Coco
Strange name, nice though. Honored to meet you
The honor is all mine, Mr. Capel
So glad we met I'll be happy to see you again
- Coco - Yes?
I guess this jacket is mine
It's yours, sure, apologies
One must return what one takes
- Sure - Please
Sure
Last time
Won't take a hat?
A hat
Its price will go up soon This is a fair chance
Why? How much is it now?
It depends
This won't do, are you crazy? What does "it depends" mean?
It depends whom you'll buy it for
Whether it is for you sister, your mother or your niece, it differs
or if it is for your wife, if you're married
I'm not married, why do you ask?
It's over, you missed the offer
I've just raised the price to four francs
- Four francs! - Four francs
But this is too much
- I don't think it's too much - Capel!
One moment, please
- Yes, my dear - What are you doing?
Nothing
- Who's she? - A hat seller
I got hats! Come and try them on!
Hats!
Come and try them on!
A hat? Madam? A hat?
A hat? Madam? Want a hat?
A hat?
We won't sell any, nobody wants to buy
- You've always been jinxed - Nearly lost my voice and my feet ache
We've been walking around for six hours and nobody paid us any attention
I am really starving
Relax and pull yourself together The day is just starting
Just starting! What are you saying! I'm telling you I'm starving!
Will you eat me or what? Relax
Will we just keep following her?
We've been following her since we left the orphanage
We just do all she says
"Come, girls We'll sing and dance at cabarets"
Alright
"Come on, girls, no more singing and dancing at cabarets, we can mange"
- Alright again, why listen to her? - Why?
Why do you listen to me, Marie?
Make your own mind, drop the hats and go see where your mind will lead you
You didn't drop the hats and say "It's your loss, Coco"
We'd make big money, collecting it in the hat, flipped this way
We hardly make a living now having stopped doing that
- We were beggars with the flipped hat - No, we earned a lot singing
We made money as beggars
- No, we'd sing - No, we were beggars
- We'd sing - No, Marie, we'd beg
We'd sing as beggars
- We'd sing... sing - Here comes the funny girl
And beg for money
- Yeah! - Sing, sing!
- Sure! - And beg for money
- Lovely! - Sing, sing!
- Sure! - And beg for money
Again... what is it? What's with you?
Marie is having another fit!
Look at Cecile, she sold all the hats, I don't know how she could
She sure didn't walk this way shouting "Hats"!
"I got hat! Come and try them on! Hats"
What's this? Think you're a peddler in a bus?
Says who I want you to blindly follow me?
I want you to be different, here
Sales can be a very difficult art, not easier than designing
Sales involve skills, intelligence, elegance
I want you to be different and special
I want you to draw attention to yourselves before the hats
Master how to sell them, as for food...
- Good morning, ma'am - Good morning
- Your hat is lovely - Yes, it is
- This one is lovely too - Sure
- Pretty - So pretty
- It's so beautiful - Look at this one, so chic
Very chic
- Beautiful, so beautiful - Very beautiful
This hat with the feather will be great...
- Really great - Yes
- Enough - Maybe...
I'll buy these two hats, but how much?
You'll only pay 8 francs for one The other is a gift from Coco Chanel
Thank you so much, madam
Come here, Isabelle
- I miss you - I miss you so, too
- I got great news for you - Marie is buying us food, want some?
- Thanks, let me tell you the news first - What's up?
- I got a job - Really? Where?
- In Saint-Véran - Will we get married and live there?
Married? Do I look ready for marriage?
- What do you mean? - I'd marry you now if I could
But will you sleep with me in the street or I'll sleep with you and the three girls?
- Impertinent! - I'm not, you got me wrong
- Alright - Listen, he won't marry you
- I know his likes very well - I don't need to hear this! Let me be
Everybody just picks on Marie when mad!
Go to work now, Jean
What is it, Isabelle? Got upset?
Don't you think your words should make me upset?
You'll leave me, we won't marry I won't see you! Is all that okay?
Why don't you come have a drink and I'll explain my point of view?
- No - Please, come
- Miss - Yes
Do you want a hat? It's so elegant, a Chanel hat
No, I don't want one, thanks a lot
See that very handsome man standing there behind me?
- Mr. Capel? - Know him?
- Who doesn't know him, Coco? - I don't, sadly, keep an eye on him
Tell me exactly what he's doing
He's with a woman in white who has a high-pitched annoying voice
What? What?
- Miss - He's right behind you
Yes
Remember what we were saying?
Sure I do, a hat is for 12 francs
- 12 francs! - 12 francs
No, I remember you last told me it was 4 francs only
No, you don't remember right, it's 12 francs
This is only now Prices will go up soon
Do you make the hats yourself?
I design them, the girls make them
I'll take all the hats you got
Like them this much?
Yes, I do
I mean the hat
I also mean the hat
If you like them this much, let's be partners and you won't regret it
You provide the money, I do the designs
We'll sell them and earn a lot We'll be the top in the world of fashion
- But I don't plan to design hats only... - What's your story exactly?
I have a dream, I believe in it
I promised myself to realize it
I accept to be your partner
and I'll buy all you got now
Capel!
Why keep talking with this girl?
Nothing, I want to buy some hats for you
This one will look great on you, may I?
Thanks, I know where to buy what suits my taste
- Did you pay for these hats? - Yes
Alright then, come on, Capel
- Why have you done this? - I miss you so
Don't feel sad
- He can go to hell - So can she

- Remember, Coco? - Sure, I remember Ms. Jeanette
- Can you still mimic her? - Sure
"Sleep, be disciplined, be polite"
"Ate all the baguette? How rude!
Any bananas there?
- Any bananas? - Yes
- It's the man who gave us money, who... - Who what?
- The one who was with the girl who... - Who what?
- The hats... the one who... - Who what?
Mr. Capel!
- Take this... - What?
Take this food away from here clean this table quickly
- Open the... the... - What?
The door
- Good evening - Good evening
- Is Ms. Chanel in? - Yes
- Good evening, Mr. Capel - Evening
How did you know where I am?
I won't have a partner not knowing where they live
- Won't you ask me in? - Sure
You must come in and check on the work and atelier
- Good evening, girls - Evening, Mr. Capel
Is this a house or an atelier?
- Depends - Depends?
- Will you repeat my words again? - Right!
We don't make hats only
I design dresses too
And shoes
- I want to make a fragrance - This is why I came
I found a fab boutique in Cambon St.
I'll pass by after two hours to take you to see it
Goodbye
Wait
After two hours
Bye
A boutique! We got a boutique in Cambon!
- Cecile, you handle the management - Okay
You, the materials and fabric
You, sales and deliveries
I want white pearl beads and white lace
I want chiffon and black satin
I want black and white silk
I want fabric especially made for Chanel
Come on, girls
"Hat maker, hat seller"
"Black and white"
"Hats"
"Work hard, girls"
"We'll deliver the orders"
"Work hard, girls"
"We'll deliver the orders..."
"...to a boutique in Cambon"
"We'll make money"
"We'll think well and plan"
"We'll grow, make it big and Chanel will be one of the most expensive brands"
"...to a boutique in Cambon"
"We'll make money"
"We'll think well and plan"
"We'll grow, make it big and Chanel will be one of the most expensive brands"
What happened later? Did they open that boutique?
- Like the story? - Yes
- Don't feel bored as before? - No, Granny, go on
Get me a glass of water and I'll tell you the rest of the story
What happened after that? People shopped there and they made big money?
No, people didn't know the boutique or its owner
True it was a new store and a step forward they'd not dreamt of
- But things aren't this easy - Why?
Chanel didn't want to be like the others
She liked to be different
- "Second Scene: The Beginning" - People fear anything new
I feel the woman with the umbrella will come in
False feeling, just like last time
I don't know what more to do
We opened a boutique and got our own designs
We even made ourselves models of all sizes
Short, tall, plump, lean so that all women passing by relate to us
Still, nobody paid us any attention
Take it easy The boutique has just been opened
Let us stand outside the boutique as all do in Paris
Listen, I want to tell you something We're not like any other Paris boutique
I mean nobody has even come near so far
You're attaching hopes on people who fear different things
They only imitate. We don't want them at all, we'll need them later
We need a princess, a duchess Maybe we'll need the others later
You'll see then These people, those ones and her
All will want to shop at Chanel's boutique
But it's no good to stand in the showcase and say we got nothing to do
Do you understand anything?
And you won't Just go make yourselves useful
- Morning, Cecile - Morning, Capel
- Good morning - Good morning
- What's up? - Nothing
Things will start happening soon
I totally trust your taste and madness
- What do you think? - Great
But I got a question
- Are these trousers? - Yes
- For women? - For women, very much so
Can you ride horses wearing a skirt?
- Pardon! - See how you got upset?
You can't, but you want us to wear huge skirts and ride horses sideways
Know what such women clothes are like?
They're like how a tenderloin cut is wrapped in threads!
You keep pulling threads and ropes around
A hundred buttons on the back and fifty ornaments on the left side
A meter and half long skirt!
If you wear such clothes you won't be able to breathe
Impossible, this is part of women's beauty
Says who women will be less beautiful in such clothes? They'll look even prettier
You're starting a revolution, not haute couture, Coco
Call it as you like Let it be a revolution then
I'm sure if all women in the world try wearing such simple, nice, comfy clothes
they will not wear those stifling outfits again
Fear losing your money?
Had I feared that I would not have got to know you
loved you...
or even made you my partner
Am I this scary?
You're magnificent, not just scary
Magnificent?
- Who repeats words now? - I do
- Finish work, I'll see you later - Hold on
I want you to take a hat box on your way out
When people see Mr. Capel going out with a hat box, they'll know about us
and realize that I'm this new fab couturier in France
- Using me for publicity, Coco? - No, we must sit and talk about publicity
I'll get done, lock up here and join you
I've invited Mr. Bader and his wife and Mr. Pierre and all his family
He is the owner of Galleries Lafayette
and the top cosmetics and fragrances businessman in all of France
You must meet them
- Fragrances? - Yes, fragrances
We'll talk about publicity tonight after dinner
Bye
- Bye - Bye
It's one o'clock, Coco I'll go with Isabelle to have lunch
Break is for half an hour only, Marie
We're hungry too
- I'll be back when I feel full - You'll never be back then!
Alright, Coco
Imagine waiting to eat till Marie feels full
This means we'll die starving!
What is it, Coco? What's the matter?
I'm getting worried
You always say that it's brave to express one's self
to introspect yourself and express your ideas out loud?
- This is Ms. Eugenie, right? - Yes, it's her
- Evening - Evening
- Which one is Ms. Chanel? - It's me
- Evening - Hello, thanks
Know you fulfilled my dreams about women fashion?
I've always dreamt women would wear such clothes
When I was little and felt bored I'd wear my father's and brother's clothes
stand before a mirror and move freely in a way many girls did not experience
You're fantastic, Ms. Chanel
And you're daring, Ms. Eugenie
I got a long day The horse races with my fiancé's family
Then, I'll be having dinner with my lover
What have I got to do with such a messy day?
- I've not said all I got to say - I got it, no need to go on
What have I got to do with such a disastrous, sombre day
that you want to spend among the French high society?
All my disasters are white!
They're limited to revolutionizing French fashion only
Only fashion, but when it comes to your dad, fiancé and lover, this is not my scene
I only want you to make me go to the races looking different and rebellious
and very distinct from the French society
surely, wearing Coco Chanel's couture
A big scandal will happen and my fiancé's family will reject me
He will leave me and I'll go meet my lover
You did hit the mark at the right place, with the right person
If you want, I can even make them smack you with their shoes!
- Thanks, Ms. Chanel - Not at all, Ms. Eugenie, please
Come on in, welcome
I'm still hungry Half an hour wasn't enough
Ms. Eugenie is here by the way
- Ms. Eugenie? - Yes
- In there? - Yes
- Get me the... the... - What?
The measuring tape
- I want the... the... - What?
The pins
The pins... the pins
- And... - What?
Scissors
- Thank you, Coco - Most welcome
Promise you I'll only wear clothes made by Coco...
Coco Chanel
Your clothes are comfy, simple and elegant
- How much? - It's a gift from Coco Chanel
- Thank you - I'll give it to the driver myself
I'll keep it on
It will ruin the engagement
Something is missing
This will scare the groom off for sure
Thanks, Coco
A gift? She is our only customer so far
For free! She's very rich
Wait till the races are over and the engagement is ruined
A catastrophe will befall the French society
After that, we'll hardly manage to keep up with customers flow
I don't know if you're sure of this out of being genius, or mad
All genius people are mad No big difference
"Third Scene"
Clothes were so stifling back then
They made women like statues
Women didn't wear pants before Chanel?
Chanel changed how the streets looked
Girls started riding bikes and the way they walked looked different
She set women free Chanel's revolution was a success
Chanel became a renowned brand and she didn't design clothes only
She also made the world's most important perfume
Chanel No. 5
Magnificent, I've been really proud of your work lately
Really great
- Philippe - Mr. Capel
Mr. Philippe
- Congratulations, Miss - Thank you
- Congratulations, sir - I want your honest opinion
My problem is that I don't give compliments
- Not happy - Why?
It's not real, not right and they tricked you in the deal
Why would Mr. Pierre take 70 percent and Mr. Bader 20 percent
while the lady who did all work take 10 percent only?
As if you had to pay them too!
The ten percent in this contract will be 40, 50 and 60 percent later on
I never thought Ms. Chanel would enter the cosmetics field and create a perfume
Incredible!
I really like her, she's different and always comes up with new unusual things
Is it good?
Great, really good
She has an excellent taste in everything, fashion, fragrances
and men as well
- An impeccable taste, indeed - I just love it
- Ms. Isabelle? - Yes
- We want two bottles - Coco
- Yes - Coco
- My dear - Yes
Goodbye
- Already? - I'll talk a bit with Philippe
Don't forget our dinner date tonight
- It's amazing, bye - Thanks
- Good morning, Mrs. Maggie - Good morning
- Good morning, Ms. Christine - Good morning
The perfume is amazing
- Daring - Thanks
You're always different, Coco and full of surprises
- Why isn't it available? - Sold out, unfortunately
But I promise you'll find it at home when you go back tonight
- Thanks a lot - Excuse me
- Cecile - Yes?
You'll help me pick my clothes for dinner
- I help Coco pick her clothes? - Yes, yes
You'll help Coco pick her clothes as Coco is very nervous
and very, very anxious
It will be my first public appearance with Capel at a big party tonight
Most of his friends and business partners will be there
as well as many people from England and France
- Will you help me? - Are you really in love?
I'm in love, yes
My dear...
shall we choose our best dress?
Let's go, there is that amazing red dress
- You'll look ravishing - No
- What about the golden satin one? - No
"Fourth Scene: The Separation"
Coco, Coco
I won't chase you down the street like a little boy
Stop and hear me out
At your service, Mr. Capel?
I know you should've heard what was said in there from me
Not find out like everyone else did
and by chance
If you understand my point you'll see it is simpler than you think
I want you to know that I love you
Love is about genuine feelings
but marriage is like a business deal
A routine life any two can share
A deal based on money and having children
Families go for it to maintain their lineage
They act according to our customs and traditions
I get you
I only got you now
A man like any other
You're not any better or more honest than all the others!
Why'd you be? What for?
You needed to find many pretexts for your decisions
mercilessly crushing your caprices!
If a woman is poor and of a simple origin, you'll find a rich aristocratic one
If she is dark you'll find a woman as bright as the moon
Greedy, unfaithful and selfish!
I knew this was bound to happen
I followed my heart and dismissed my mind
This is why I promise you...
I promise that my heart will never belong to another man
From now on, I'll listen to my mind
my mind only
I'll calculate everything from now on
Even love will be calculated
Excuse me, Mr. Capel
- There must be a solution - Unfortunately, no
This won't work
Can you understand me or at least hear me out?
- Only work will bind us - Coco!
I'll always send you the accounts of all the stores
That is if you want us to keep working together
- But you know I love you - Sure I do
- Yes - I'm telling you I love you
You know I'm not lying
Excuse me, Mr. Capel, I must go
This belongs to Chanel
Crying, Gabrielle?
You've not cried since you father dumped you at the orphanage
You can cry now?
Why are you crying?
Over whom?
Crying over love?
Did I believe I was in love?
That I know how to be in love?
Yes, I was in love
Unfortunately, I fell in love
Only you deserve Chanel's heart and mind

"Fifth Scene"
"During the time when Chanel was most frustrated"
"she designed and made the most important dress in her life"
- Mrs. Minar's fitting is today - Sure and Ms. Lisa's too
Don't forget the fragrance shipment delivery from the factory
Yes, I got many orders, but insufficient supply
What is this? When did you come here?
I slept here
I didn't even know I did
It's so beautiful
Really pretty
- Daring - Resembles you
- Amazing - What will you call it?
The little black dress
- Coffee, please - Just a second, Isabelle
Why come again today? Are you okay?
- Got a work problem? - I do have a big problem
- But not at work - What then?
Here, my heart can't live without you
- We must marry soon, Isabelle - Marry? Really?
What brings him here?
- He came for me, Chanel - This is a place of work
Not for rendezvous
There is a critical life decision that cannot be put off
- What is it? - We want to get married
- And? - Jean thinks of working here
or I'd move away and work with him
- What do you think? - I don't know
Don't know? Don't know what?
Will you leave your job, career and life for a man?
- He's not a man... - Not a man!
I mean not just any other man
- I love her, Ms. Chanel - Liar!
No man can love a woman more than 45 minutes
Maximum one to two hours
- All men are selfish - Not true
Why would you turn out to be honest, sincere and know how to love?
Everything masculine in the world is evil
Treachery
Death
Hatred... you
And everything beautiful in the world is feminine
Life
Freedom
Fashion
You...
You must understand
Learn the trade then decide
He's bound to leave you
He'll surely dump you easily
Why are you silent? Speak
Tell her
Tell her what would happen to us each night begging for money at cabarets
Human predators mercilessly preyed on us everyday
We were hungry...
and tired...
and felt nothing, but it didn't matter
What mattered was to lie and be good at it
You know that
You are sure of it
- You're disgusting! - Disgusting!
This is too much, Ms. Chanel
Let me ask you this, why only now he can't live without you and wants to marry?
Know why? Because you made it
You're solvent, you got money
- He's a fraud... - Enough, this is rude, enough
Listen well
Choose, your work and career with me
or living a miserable life with him going back to being a beggar!
You've sadly totally lost your mind
You chose our garbs and our food and got us to make hats and clothes
You tell us whom to greet, or not You tell us when to smile or frown
Why all this? It's our life, not yours
We've endured your madness and how you have controlled us
but not to the extent of telling me whom to love, or not to love
Unfortunately, you've became insane
If you don't like it, you may leave
I'll leave, I'll go and leave you alone just like everyone around you is doing
I'll go because you don't deserve that I stay with you. Come on, Jean
Wait, Isabelle
I'll go with you, too
I really don't know what has got into you
I'll go because you don't deserve that I stay by your side
- Go to hell! - You've gone too far, Coco
Jean is not your father, lover or even Paul Capel, Gabrielle
Please, leave me alone
I don't want anyone
I can't stand being with anyone now
Only I decide what happens or not
I, only I
Coco Chanel
"Second Act"
"Sixth Scene: The Nazi War"
Coco, look around you
Only our store is left open Everybody closed theirs
Everybody? Who cares?
Since when do I copy others?
Who'd come shopping in this war?
I listened to you and closed all our stores
but no, not this one, Cecile
I won't let the brand name Chanel be forgotten
even if the country is in the middle of a war
We may die or lose everything, Coco
You are what you are You'll always be the same Cecile
You can't see beyond the end of your nose
Let's get in the store We don't need to be shot or something
- God! - Are you crazy?
- This is it! - Sorry, sir, she doesn't feel well
There it is
A bag's handle should be like that
Bag! What are you talking about? Is this the right time?
Shall I order my mind to stop working till the war is over?
My mind always works on it own, it's just like that
- What are you doing? - What I must do! Come along
No, Coco, this is wrong, believe me
He was defending you, your people and country, help me pull him up!
No, I disagree, we'll get in trouble
Shall I leave him to die? Leave him to be killed by the Nazis?
Help me pull him up
- Shut up, please - Easy on me, I'm bleeding
- Please, bleed silently! - Help me with him
No, we'll really get in deep trouble
Coward, you're a coward
Help me pull him up
No, no!
What is it?
- He's the man... who... - Who what?
The thief who tried to steal the... the...
- The hats! - The hats
Stopped being a thief and joined the...?
- Resistance! - Search the place here
Look here
He couldn't have gone very far Search every corner in this street
You two, go there
And you two, search over there
Excuse me
- Do you speak French? - Yes, I speak French very well
But my language abilities are not our issue now
What is our issue now?
I'm looking for an escaped criminal He may be hiding in this store
- But this is not a regular store - Whatever, we'll search it now
Just a second please, just a second
This is an haute couture boutique and it is rather small
It doesn't take all those soldiers you got
What do you want?
Go in alone if possible
Search it all you like and the soldiers can wait outside
Please
Wait for me here
Are you the storeowner?
I'm Coco Chanel
Know that your styles and couture are widespread in my country?
If you have a wife or a girlfriend you can take her a gift from Coco Chanel
A gift?
What's upstairs?
Just a showcase
Know what the punishment of that criminal will be after he gets arrested?
Actually, I don't know
He'll be executed
Know the court considers a person who helps a criminal hide an accessory?
Know what their punishment is?
They'll be executed too
This dress is very elegant
How could you call a man defending his country a criminal?
He's a criminal for tying to kill a Nazi soldier
If a foreign army invades and occupies your country one day
and you defend it
will that make you a criminal
or a patriot?
And the aggressor is the criminal?
It's my duty to do what I'm doing
And it's his duty to do what he's doing
Isn't it?
Scared?
I never get scared
Still not scared?
I told you I never get scared
It was an honor to meet you, Ms. Chanel
What happened?
Did he see him?
He didn't see him?
I don't know
I don't understand
She had mixed emotions
She didn't know what she was doing
She forgot who he was and what he was doing in her country
How did they fall in love so quickly?
"Why and how" don't apply to falling in love
Love happens in a moment
The mind falls totally silent and one only listens to the heart
He loved how brave and courageous she was
and she loved how humane he was
and totally forgot he was a Nazi who had come to occupy her country
Traitor! She turned the resistance guys in!
It's said she gave up her nationality and became German
- She must die - Cursed!
- She must die! - Let her burn!
- Destroy her - Kill her
- Traitor - Burn her alive
"Destroy her... destroy her"
"Destroy her... destroy her She led her compatriots to their death"

"She's one of the cursed traitors"

"She doesn't deserve justice"
"She's one of the cursed traitors"

"Seventh Scene: The Trial"
Court is in session!
All France stands witness to the treason of this defendant
She committed her crime publicly
thinking that France had surrendered
and the Nazis would prevail
Hence, I request maximum punishment, your honor
so that it would be a deterrent for anyone who may consider treason
Let's hear the witnesses
First witness, sister Jeanette
You may take the stand
You raised her at the orphanage that is annexed to the monastery, right?
- Yes, sir - Very good
Could you tell us what you know about her ?
A drunkard left her at the monastery's gate and never came back
What else?
Her mother had died before her father brought her to the monastery
- and... - What?
Her parents were not married at church
She never adhered to the monastery rules
as if she had inherited sin from her mother
I'm Pierre Benoit, here to testify
But you were not summoned
Mr. Benoit is a patriot and a fighter He risked his life for France
Apologies, your honor, but I had to come
I must do the right thing and say all I got to say
The lady you have incarcerated saved me from death
The officer you're accusing her because of their relation was looking for me
She let me hide in her store
But for what she did I'd have been killed, or a prisoner now
Is this a proof of innocence? Or indictment?
Thank you, sir. Next
- Coco! - They'll have you executed
- Criminal - Felon
- What's your relation with the plaintiff? - We'd sing together at cabarets
She never had any principles She only cared about money
Coco isn't even her real name
She took the name of our song
- What song? - What? Don't you know it?
- Never heard it? - Shall we sing it for you?
Sure
"Didn't you see Coco Coco in the Trocadero"
"Coco in the Tro, Coco in the Tro Coco in the Trocadero"
"Who saw Coco Eh Coco, Eh Coco"
"Who saw Coco Eh Coco"
Thank you
- Thank you - This is enough
- Thank you, you may go - This soon?
- Thank you, your honor - Goodbye
You Nazi!
Tell us about your relation with the defendant
She tried to steal my husband
How?
She became Coco Chanel thanks to my husband Mr. Capel
Your honor, you and all people know that her likes only care about money
They'd sell everything for money
Your honor
Mr. Churchill PM of Great Britain is here to testify
Your honor The great nation of France
Ms. Chanel is an icon of finesse femininity and sophisticated taste
Would you hold creators accountable for their madness
in love, or even going against the regime?
The law must apply to all
Your honor, Chanel is not a military figure, or even a regular person
Chanel is an artist Your judgment criteria are invalid
Thank you so much, your honor I hope mercy will take over justice here
Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister
Your honor, may I speak?
You have the right to defend yourself if you have proof
I fell in love with a human being regardless of his nationality
No borders, languages or titles
He could see the inside of me
He saw the person that nobody ever gave a chance
Our love was void of ulterior motives and gains
It was void of betrayal and treachery, which never stand trial!
Your honor
The heart controls love
and love controls the heart
Can you stop summer breeze? A wave in the sea?
Can you stop a child from being astonished seeing colors in the sky?
Can you?
Stop me from falling in love if you can
"Eighth Scene: Exile"
Don't you feel cold?
Did you call out to me?
Or did I mishear you as usual?
Come sit with me
- You never ask me to - Well...
It's a bit odd
Thanks
Deauville is beautiful
It is
We're getting older, Coco
I don't understand
Why are you still staying with me?
Why didn't you leave with the girls?
Why didn't you leave like everyone did?
I went singing at cabarets despite having a horrible voice
You were there
I made hats, you were there
I opened a boutique, you were there too
I loved Capel then Hans, you were there
I stood trial and the French people rejected me, and you were there too
Are you an idiot?
A fool?
- Enough drinking now - Enough, why?
Why get sober? We're just chatting
We got nothing else to do
You're right
We got nothing else to do
Forgot to tell you
Mr. Pierre called me
and offered me 400 thousand dollars
in return for waiving my Chanel No. 5 rights
He thought you'd accept because of your current situation
I did accept
What? Surely not
What time is it? I'll call him to cancel the deal
Are you crazy?
Call him in what capacity?
In what capacity?
I'm worried about you and want to protect you
I believe in you and have the right to interfere
I wasted all my life on you, Coco
I gave you my mind and energy
Isn't all this enough to cancel the deal and also, tell you that you're wrong?
It's my decision, none of your business
You're Cecile, I'm Coco Chanel
I know exactly what I'm doing
No, you don't know
I won't let you destroy yourself again in the name of love
You almost lost everything and now you'll lose all that remains
You are delusional, time flies and will pass so fast till you've become forgotten
What are you waiting for? Leave
Why wait? Hurry up and go
Catch up with your time before it forgets you, too
Get back to your senses, Gabrielle You must work again
You must design, create and let your soul and ideas illuminate the whole world
I can't
I don't want to
I don't know how to
If you let go of drinking, love and obstinacy, you'll be able to
I'm hurt all over
I can't take it anymore, there isn't a whole spot left in my body for a new wound
- I'm free - No, you're not
I got a right in you, as if you were I
Nobody has a right in me
Nobody made me, I'm free
I'll do as I please
To be sober, or drunk
To work...
I'm free
You're free too
Do whatever you like
If I were you, I'd leave me
I can't stand myself
I can't stand anybody...
anybody
Please, leave me alone
Please, let me be
Can you hear me?
I didn't experience all those feelings for us to end up in different places
I didn't do all I did so that you wouldn't be here
Why aren't you here?
"I'll leave you with good people who'll take care of you"
"Why must you leave me, dad? Please, don't leave me"
"Come on, I won't leave you for long"
"I just need to make enough money to get us a house"
"Take me while you make money"
"Enough, that won't do I can't take good care of you"
"Believe me, Gabriel I won't be late for you"
"I'll come for you after a month"
"Believe me, I'll come soon for you"
Don't believe it, don't believe him
He's drunk and doesn't know what he's saying
He's a liar! Just like all other men!
I never lied to you You just didn't listen to me
I knew what you were going to say
You were going to say many words
that mean you won't marry a girl who came from an orphanage
Even in your imagination you don't listen to me, Coco
- Just excuses - Just excuses!
Please, I already told you not to repeat my words
I never loved anyone but you Did you love me?
Did I love you?
Asking?
You were the most decent and beautiful thing in my life
You're the only one I felt safe with
I wouldn't have made it without you
I already told you repeatedly
You could've done it all without me being there
Thank you with all my heart, Mr. Capel
- Coco - Mr. Philippe
Yes. Philippe, your friend
Hello
Hello, Mr. Philippe
I miss you, you were the French fashion revolution that was never completed
Was...
I was, Mr. Philippe
Not true
Coco Chanel that I know is the epitome of fashion
She embodies good taste and talent
Coco Chanel is the essence of all France
She was...
Coco Chanel that I know doesn't know defeat
She only knows victory, challenges and success
My soul died within me while I am still alive
In the end, I am only a human
that once... once had an artist inside
I ran out of endurance
You started from scratch and climbed up reaching the top, you're a legend
Legends don't end
Go back and tell them Coco Chanel can't live without people
Can't live without love...
art, creativity
Tell them Coco Chanel has become a beautiful memory
that may be... hurtful
Look, Coco
This is Christian Dior
Pierre Balmain
Louis Vuitton and others
They all try to copy your style and couture and despite failing to, they made it big
Know what your return will mean? You'll dazzle the whole world
Seems I was wrong thinking you'd not admit defeat, no matter how painful it is
I just want to tell you that neither I, nor Cecile
nor all the people will forgive you for not returning
History won't forgive you, Coco
What a loss!
Wait, Mr. Philippe
Maybe you don't miss Paris, but I do
I'll go with you, Mr. Philippe
I do miss the scents of Paris
Painters standing at street corners
Its simple alleys
The Louvre
Montmartre
A Cezanne painting being copied by poor youngsters to make a living
An old man smoking a cigarette
Sound of the rain
Colors of the umbrellas
The glowing lights
The Eiffel tower
Wait
Take me with you
"Ninth Scene: The Return (Paris)"
Get it to me quickly
- What's up? - We're fully booked
- Really? - Sure
Coco Chanel, you're the greatest couturier in the world, do you doubt it?
Where is François?
Where is Philippe?
Where is Mrs. Claude?
Don't worry, everything is alright
Philippe is receiving the people and the managers of our store branches
- Have a look to set your mind at ease? - I don't want to
- I think I saw some Americans - I invited them
Invited them? What do those cowboys know about haute couture?
Remember Ms. Eugenie?
The whole world is changing. Thanks
America will change too
Do you think so?
Come on, girls
Credit goes to her for liberating women from old fashion restrictions
- A legend - Not only did she revolutionize fashion
but also revolutionized politics
I'll never forgive her for loving a German Nazi officer
It's said she works for the German government under an alias
I can't see her designs or hear the letters of her name ever again
I'd never leave Christian Dior and go buy my clothes from a spy
- Chanel is stuck in the past - They're acting so strangely!
- Why stare at us with such hatred? - What is it? As if we were their enemies
They're leaving
Girls, please
Can we leave Coco alone now, please?
Thanks
I don't know what happened
Coco
I'm sorry
Obviously, you were right
You were very brave and did all you had to do anyway
I don't get how they became so cruel
- They didn't even look at the pieces - It has nothing to do with that
It has nothing to do with creativity
Clearly, the French have rejected you anew
Please, leave me alone

I went to the Ritz, but didn't find you there
I was sure I'd find you here
I needed to be alone for a while
To call myself to account
To fight with myself
To reconcile with myself before reconciling with France
I'm not a traitor, Cecile
I didn't betray my people or my nation
I know
This is why I couldn't wait till you're done with your self-fight
I couldn't wait till tomorrow
Come on, get up I got some very good news, come on
You won't believe what happened
Remember the Americans I mocked at the fashion show?
They ordered all the showpieces and wanted to meet you after that
They want to open Chanel stores in America
You were right saying the world was changing, Coco
and that America was changing too
Call all my lawyers
Call all my consultants
Call Philippe and tell him to have the needed money ready
Open the factories, ateliers and boutiques
Right away, not tomorrow
"Tenth Scene: Glory"
Not this one
- The other one - This one?
The one you've just had, Carl
Right
Mrs. Antoinette called to confirm her appointment
I told her it's fixed, Thursday at nine
- Where is he? Did he leave? - Who?
That man, the journalist who came especially from America for you
- Where did you send him, Coco? - He's in the toilet
Want us to continue talking while you work?
Fantastic, lovely
Thanks, Carl. What were we saying?
Let's talk seriously a bit
I dislike questions that seem deep
- Right, let's talk fashion - Fashion?
I don't make fashion I'm the epitome of fashion
If you want to talk about clothing styles, I don't mind
Is there a difference between both?
Of course, fashion is about the new couture of each season
whereas clothes styling is about choosing what suits each woman each season
Alright, what do you think of young people's apparel these days?
I don't like short skirts and jeans
Perhaps only because you're too old to wear them
Do you want to talk about age, or life?
Yes... the phone
Hello, this is Coco Chanel's atelier Who's speaking?
Yes, sir
- Coco? - Who is it?
Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy's office!
Good morning, Mrs. Jacqueline
I was sure you'd like it
Sure
I'm honored
America was on my agenda but I didn't know exactly when
This year, yes
The honor is mine, thank you
Did she like it?
Very much
Was that "The" Jackie Kennedy?
Yes
Given my journalist curiosity may I ask about her taste in fashion?
I choose what suits her according to my own taste
Sure, but what are her favorite colors? How does she mix and match?
You asked me about age
Age is related to clothes
After the age of fifty...
this is the question all journalists want answered
- My age... - Yes, how old?
Women that age wear schoolgirl garments again
Can schoolgirls afford such a costly pearl necklace like that one you got?
That one? It's quite cheap
But when I put it on, it looks expensive
Understand anything?
I'm trying
Trying
You must try much harder if you want to understand me
Shall we talk about love?
I don't like talking about love
But I think any woman likes to feel sure someone really loves her
That she can be loved, not falling in love herself
What do you say to all women in the world?
Go for simplicity, don't overdo it
It's how you feel, not sticking to rules
Coco, you've definitely achieved glory
Could you tell me about it?
Glory
It's that a journalist comes from America to interview me
Glory is that I can tell you the interview is over, I have a lot to do
- Honored to have you here - Fantastic seeing you, ma'am
Yes, the interview is over
Goodbye, sir
This way, please
Did he bother you?
Not at all, or maybe I got used to it
Done working?
Not yet
I don't know
Good morning This is Coco Chanel's atelier
Yes, one moment please
Grace Kelly
Good morning, Grace
How are you doing?
Yes, ready. The dress is ready
You'll receive it tomorrow
On the Paris-Monaco flight
Ten a.m.
At your service
- How do you feel? - About what?
Jacqueline Kennedy and Grace Kelly
After a tough journey reaching your goal, you'll realize all the hardships
were more pleasurable than achieving the goal itself
- Understand me? - Trying
Don't be late tomorrow We have a lot of work, starting early
Coco
I want something of you
What is it?
Someone wants to meet you
Who?
I'll show them in
Coco, I want...
Not a word, you belong in there
Go home now We got a lot of work tomorrow
Thank you, really
- Good night - Good night
I'm so happy You'd tell me Chanel was no more
Come here
What is it? Hope it's good
I want to tell you something
- Hope it's good - Yes, it's good
I want to tell you that you're the best thing that ever happened to me
I want to thank you
Thank you for putting up with me all your life
And I'm sorry
I'm sorry if I upset you one day
I really love you
Thank you
You know well how precious you are to me, why are you saying this?
I don't know Maybe I won't be able to say it later
- Can I ask you to do something? - Yes, of course
- Take the old sewing machine to the Ritz - Why?
Please. No questions, please.
- Let's close up here and go - I'll stay a bit
I'll lock the doors as I leave You can go home, good night
Good night, Coco
