High fashion meets high stakes in this behind-the-curtain look at how an iconic fashion house is thrown into scandal and reinvention by a viral video featuring star designer Vincent Ledu, played by Lambert Wilson, leaving his family’s iconic and legendary haute couture house, LEDU, hanging by a thread.
Perle Foster, played by Amira Casar, Vincent’s former muse still in his shadow, collaborates with visionary next-generation designer Paloma Castel, played by Zita Hanrotto, to save, evolve and renew the century-old Maison LEDU. Taking advantage of Vincent’s demise, Diane Rovel, played by Carole Bouquet, the ruthless CEO of the powerful Rovel luxury group, launches an offensive to acquire what she sees as her most important prize: Maison LEDU. To achieve her goal, anything is fair game, as this is more than acquiring just another brand — it’s about revenge.

He rose to stardom when he landed the role in the 1970s. Yet in 1995, he had a near-fatal horse-riding accident that left him completely paralyzed. Reeve spends the remainder of his life supporting the search for a cure for spinal cord injuries.

Directed by Titus Kaphar, Exhibiting Forgiveness follows Andre Holland as Tarrell, an admired American painter who lives with his wife, singer Aisha, played by Andra Day, and their young son, Jermaine.
Tarrell’s artwork excavates beauty from the anguish of his youth, keeping past wounds at bay. His path to success is derailed by an unexpected visit from his estranged father, La’Ron, played by John Earl Jelks, a conscience-stricken man desperate to reconcile.
Tarrell’s mother, Joyce, played by Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, a pious woman with a profound and joyful spirituality, hopes that Tarrell can open his heart to forgiveness, giving them all another chance at being a family. In this raw and profoundly moving film, Tarrell and La’Ron learn that forgetting might be a more significant challenge than forgiving.
From Kaphar’s website:
Titus Kaphar is an artist whose paintings, sculptures, and installations examine the history of representation by transforming its styles and mediums with formal innovations to emphasize the physicality and dimensionality of the canvas and materials themselves. His practice seeks to dislodge history from its status as the “past” in order to unearth its contemporary relevance. He cuts, crumples, shrouds, shreds, stitches, tars, twists, binds, erases, breaks, tears, and turns the paintings and sculptures he creates, reconfiguring them into works that reveal unspoken truths about the nature of history.
Coppola’s film explores love, power, greed, change, destiny and hope. It focuses on the obsession with perfection in a world far from flawless. The storyline follows Shakespeare’s themes, the political history of Catiline and Robert Moses’s biography of Robert Caro.
Megalopolis taps literary and historical references such as Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius and the spiritual journey of Siddhartha and Greek poet Sappho.
Francis Ford Coppola wrote and directed Metropolis, a science fiction drama. Adam Driver plays Cesar Catilina, an artist whose ingenuity leaps him into a utopian, idealistic future. A genius student, he develops an innovative material called Magalon. He has plans to use it to build a utopian city called Megalopolis. But his ambitions do not go unnoticed with his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero, played by Giancarlo Esposito.

Cicero is committed to a regressive status quo that perpetuates special interests, greed and partisan warfare. As new mayor, Cicero inherits a bankrupt administration and plans to orchestrate a casino complex to boost revenue and rectify modern New York City.

Nathalie Emmanuel plays Julia Cicero. She is romantically involved with Cesar, tearing her loyalty between her father’s scheme and Cesar’s hope for a better world. Such a rip causes a conflicting chasm, though her independent thinking may help her resolve their differences.

Principle photography took place in Georgia. Yet one scene showing an entrance to Ciero’s home looks like the front of Huntington Gardens Mansion.
However, the story is about a hierarchical society divided between achieving a better society and maintaining the status quo. Coppola compares the Catilinarian conspiracy to today’s America, which is at the beginning of the end.
The rest of the supporting cast includes Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Jon Voight, Laurence Fishburne, Talia Shire, Jason Schwartzman, Kathryn Hunter, Grace VanderWaal, Chloe Fineman, James Remar, D.B. Sweeney and Dustin Hoffman.
