"Shirley MacLaine (in a Golden Globe-nominated role) stars in this Lifetime biopic, which tells the story of one of fashion's most prominent women, Coco Chanel, starting with her humble beginnings in a French orphanage, up through to her unparalleled success as a fashion icon. The film also explores Chanel's dramatic personal life, including her intense and tragic love affair with an English gentleman, as well as her infamously ill-tempered personality. Malcolm McDowell co-stars."
