Karl Lagerfeld opened his pre-fall 2009 Chanel show last week with a ten-minute silent short film about Coco Chanel — his directorial debut! Last week we brought you the trailer, but now, if you really want to kill ten minutes, you can watch the whole thing with English subtitles. “Today, people are ready for silent movies again, as they spend time — hours, I would say — looking at text messages and e-mails,” Karl told WWD. Watch and contemplate if your e-mail has in fact properly primed you. [Fashionologie]
