Going in style

Iris

Crit
No dedicated follower of fashion is nonagenarian Iris Apfel. Nor is she some snobby, judgmental leader of fashion. No, if someone who is neither fashionable nor stylish may make the distinction, what Iris is has nothing to do with fashion and everything to do with style. And though she works hard to find things that speak to her style, the style itself is effortless, is simply who she is.

The latest entry in films ostensibly on topics about which I have zero interest that are reviewed so positively I can't miss them and end up wowing me. One of the last films directed by documentarian Albert Maysles, who died in May (and with whom Iris chats and flirts throughout).
