Yves Saint Laurent Ritement Speech 2012 by Pierre Thoretton
L’amour Fou is a wonderful tribute to beauty, elegance, decadence and a man who so perfectly captured all these things. “Yves and Pierre are a couple whose love story is the most beautiful of the 20th century” (Betty Catroux)
The public life of Yves Saint Laurent was as extravagant as it was decadent- but few are familiar with the private life of the legend. Upon his death in 2008, Pierre Berge decided to sell the couple’s beloved private collection.It is through this momentous auction, and using rare archival footage as well as interviews with those closest to him that we’re offered a never before seen and deeply intimate look into the life of fashion icon and the relationship between these two remarkable men. DVD out on Monday November 21st from Studio Canal.
