Coco Before Chanel

So I watched the CoCo Chanel movie this last weekend. I didn't realize this entire movie was going to be in French with English subtitles......you know how movies start off in another language and then switch to English after a little bit.....well.....NOT this one. But I was too far into the movie to just turn it off at this point! Lol. I couldn't have ANY snacks during this movie.....I won't tell u how many times I had to rewind to re-read something! Anyways.......46 hrs, no snacks, and 1 headache later I have learned 5 things and have a favorite quote from the movie:

1) CoCo is just her nickname from her dad....her real name is Gabrielle

2) she was a wee bit friendly if u catch my drift....

3) she started out her design career by making straw hats

4) she tried to be a horse jockey

5) she never married and thought men were unnecessary in life :)

My favorite quote from the movie is between her and her "friend" named Balsar....

Balsar: "Coco you are skin and bones, don't you eat???"
Coco: "No I did a lot of THAT as a child....."

Hahahaha!
