Turning Classic Movies Presents: When Model Turns Actress

Edited by

Liya Kebede is the latest in a long line of catwalkers to add the foreboding hyphenate “actress” to her title. But unlike so many models before her, she has taken a quieter route towards the big screen. Desert Flower, opening this Friday exclusively at New York’s Angelika and in Los Angeles, is based on the story of Waris Dirie, a victim of female circumcision who was sold into marriage before becoming a model in the late-80s.

The Devil Wears Prada, Part Duex

The Devil Wears Prada, Part Duex

Seems like one of the films in competition at the Sundance Film Festival is a contender for the sequel to “The Devil  Wears Prada”.

The A&E documentary is focused on Vogue and Anna Wintour’s preparation of the September 2007 issue of the fashion tome.

I wonder if we’ll get a real dose of the editor-in-chief or a toned down Barbra Walters version.

Guess we’ll just have to wait until the Valentino gowns and Christian Louboutin heels clear before we make any judgments on how this documentary will shape up.

Thanks to WWD for the tip.
