Glamour comes at a cost in ‘House of Gucci’
Get ready for the lavish excess of the fashion elite in Sir Ridley Scott’s operatic true story of family drama and murder in House of Gucci.
Watch the brand new trailer for House of Gucci NOW:
Here’s the official synopsis:
House of Gucci is inspired by the shocking true story of the family empire behind the Italian fashion house of Gucci. Spanning three decades of love, betrayal, decadence, revenge, and ultimately murder, we see what a name means, what it’s worth, and how far a family will go for control.
Noted visual genius Sir Ridley Scott brings his talented eye to the infamous story of Patrizia Reggiani and her involvement with the Gucci family in a sordid tale of wealth, opulence, excess and murder in House of Gucci and this film looks like an absolute whirlwind cinematic experience.
Set to the burning funk of Eurythmics’ ‘Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This’, Scott focuses his camera in on Academy Award winner Lady Gaga who steps into the role of Patrizia Reggiani, an eccentric and calculating young woman who married into the Gucci empire via her husband Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver), and would do whatever was necessary to reach the top! Gaga gives Reggiani a cat-like elegance and cunning, and she completely owns the screen and thoroughly enchants the audience’s attention with her performance.
Driver also provides a key supporting role in the film as Patrizia’s husband, Maurizio Gucci, the heir to the Gucci fortune who finds a lavish new sense of power with his wife by his side. But also comes to see that there can only be one emperor sitting atop the Gucci empire and this brings him into direct contact with Gucci patriarch Aldo Gucci, who is played by Academy Award winner Al Pacino.
Scott has crafted a beautiful, elegant and lavish picture that pulls together the glamour and fashion of the 1970s and 1990s with effortless style. And fashionistas are going to be in awe and in love with the visuals that Scott brings to the screen with this picture.
Get ready to experience this glamourous and infamous story when House of Gucci arrives in cinemas on December 26.
