Live@Sundance '09: An Issue of Trust

During the making of The September Issue, fashion icon Anna Wintour trusted director R.J. Cutler's documentary-filmmaking instincts, even when they guided him to ignore every single comment Wintour made.

Anna Wintour is in all of us. Somewhere.

Like you say GoofyGoat, if Anna Wintour were a man, no one would bat an eyelid. A woman's usually labelled a b***h if she has to make fast and hard business decisions, which is a shame. Anna Wintour's got to where she is by being particular, and expecting excellence - something that shines through in "The September Issue" - see it if you can. I think she's great.

Artheate, the big guy's Andre Leon Talley - contributing editor for Vogue - he has a strange way of dressing, that's for sure.

She's a fur wearing hag and there is really no need for it

@armanifan10101 - it has also become the sign of arrogance and cruelty. people in my grandmother's generation didn't really know (or care) about the industry. now they know - and many still don't care. fuck em'.

@Juillardl Not according to Karl Lagerfeld, Balmain, Chanel, Fendi, Rick Owens...the list goes on and on.

@MikeyTTTT Maybe to a point, however generally the term is more like "jerk" or "****ole" when referring to a man, but in Anna's case if she was a man people would probably just think "he" is a good but tough leader and a successful business "man".  No one expects, for example, Donal Trump, to be "touchy-feely", but it is expected of Anna simply because she is a woman.

@MikeyTTTT hmm just hitting on that general statement "A woman's usually labelled ... business decisions" I think that both male & female bosses can be b*tchy. That category of people are basically kids who don't know how to do things differently. Pictorially, that's equivalent to them driving a big fat car & ramming it through the traffic regardless of consequences. And people like myself don't find that acceptable and will inevitably say "what a b*tch!" It's got nothing to do with genders!

@Juillardl Fur is never out of style! It's a sign of luxary and wealth!

[Movzhuru]

@Juillardl come to Russia in winter. You will see, literally, millions "out-of-style" people wearing "out-of-style" fur

[Juillardl]

Who the hell still wears fur! It's out-of-style.

First of all it's Anna WINTOUR you idiot, and second of all, HAHAHAHAHAHA!

[atgny]

She is an amazing woman of our time. She has guided pop culture in a way no one else could have. Watch the film closely. She is making moment to moment choices that effect all of us thru media images.
