Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

aryxus-2 I watch a lot of documentaries, but this is the first I can remember that I had to turn off before finishing. The amount of bragging that goes on is almost comical, and indeed could result in quite a drinking game.Apparently the greatest achievement of the 20th century wasn't the moon landing, but the fashion tents in Bryant Park. Who knew?The highlight for me was hearing Tommy Hilfiger confiding that it was he who injected "glamour into the runway," because really, before him, all those models and lights and music and celebrity were just so drab.What a brilliant brilliant man. We're all lucky he looked around and saw what was lacking in fashion shows: glamour!Anyway, I guess it's good for a laugh or two.

atlasmb I found this selection on Netflix. I was not exactly sure what to expect. I was a little disappointed, but really this documentary does what it sets out to do--provide an overview of the origins and the growth of New York's Fashion Week for the eighteen years it was housed in Bryant Park.If you hope to see whole collections by U.S. designers or lots of celebrities, this is not the film to watch. The Tents only provides (numerous) glimpses of both, just enough to give you a feel for what transpired.If you want a definitive history of Bryant Park's very successful role in the promotion of Fashion Week as provided through interviews with many of the participants involved, this film is for you. Snippets of interviews with organizers, producers, designers, models, sponsors and fashion fans reveal how an audacious idea became an integral part of the fashion culture and a significant influence on the global fashion seasons.Also discussed are various factors that have influenced Fashion Week during those years--digital cameras, social media, and Project Runway.The Tents is filled with anecdotes that range from lighting miscues to the intrusions of the real world (e.g. the death of Alexander McQueen and 9/11).As New York's Fashion Week prepares to move to Lincoln Center, this film provides a nostalgic look at an era many will identify with and others will want to visit.
