Overview
- Sofia Coppola’s Marc by Sofia premiered out of competition at the Venice Film Festival, introducing her first nonfiction feature.
- The film tracks the 12 weeks leading up to Marc Jacobs’s spring 2024 New York Fashion Week show with behind-the-scenes footage, interviews and archival material.
- On the red carpet, Jacobs called the movie “a beautiful letter of love,” while Coppola told reporters she aimed for a small, sincere portrayal rather than marketing.
- A review in El Periódico argues the documentary lacks rigor, citing the absence of fashion-critic or peer interviews, scant attention to Jacobs’s Louis Vuitton years and a superficial treatment of his personal life.
- Spanish-language coverage reports the project has backing from A24, a detail not independently confirmed in the provided reports.
