Couture

What to Know

Critics Consensus

A skeptical exposé on high fashion whose insights might be shallower than the industry it critiques, Couture makes its most persuasive statement through Angelina Jolie's emotionally unvarnished performance.

2/5
Sadly, the film itself feels specious and shallow, insisting with bland and weirdly humourless confidence on the glamorous importance of the fashion world in which it is set. Go to Full Review Marya E. Gates RogerEbert.com Sep 15
Winocour deftly weaves in and out of their stories, and a few other women whose hard work keeps the industry ticking, with slick image and sound edits that wrapped me up in a sublime trance. Go to Full Review Benjamin Lee Guardian Sep 11
2/5
It makes the fashion world seem deathly dull, as if Winocour dislikes it as much as her protagonist allegedly does. Go to Full Review Latoya Austin Movie Marker 1d
3/5
Couture provides that reflective, behind the scenes gaze during Paris Fashion Week and is equally pioneering as the first film shot at the Chanel atelier in Paris. Go to Full Review Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine Jun 7
7/10
Angelina Jolie delivers one of her most vulnerable performances, while her chemistry with Louis Garrel is quietly mesmerizing. Alice Winocour crafts an elegant and thoughtful drama about identity, resilience, and human connection. Go to Full Review Ridge Harripersad CGMagazine May 20
6.5/10
"The primary issue with Couture was its storytelling methods of having to follow multiple storylines, which meant it could not emotionally invest enough in each character." Go to Full Review Read all reviews
