Review of McQueen (2018) by Ginak — 05 Aug 2018

If you are interested in creativity and/or fashion, you will enjoy this excellent documentary about the wildly gifted British fashion designer Alexander McQueen. Although you hear from his family and his colleagues, this documentary is mainly (and thankfully) about the fashion he created, which was really amazing.

The only fault is that the documentary slows down at the end. Once the charismatic McQueen dies, the film loses its energy and fascination. The film should have ended immediately after McQueen’s death, rather than continuing with eulogies from family and friends, whose presence and ideas pale so obviously in comparison to the energy and genius of McQueen himself.
