What does the Gucci family really think of ‘House of Gucci’?

After last week’s release of Ridley Scott Gucci house, caused a stir: Lady Gaga and Adam Driver were praised for their performances as Patrizia and Maurizio Gucci (as well as the intense sex scene that left many people scarred after watching it with their parents. at the cinema).

Today, the heirs of Aldo Gucci (played by Al Pacino in the film), who served as president of the Gucci company from 1953 to 1986, have released a statement responding to the film.

The production of the film did not bother to consult the heirs before portraying Aldo Gucci – the company’s president for 30 years – and members of the Gucci family as thugs, ignorant. aware and insensitive to the world around them,” the statement said. “This is incredibly painful from a human point of view and an insult to the legacy on which the brand is built today.”

The statement went on to discuss Patrizia’s legacy as “even more objectionable” because she “is portrayed, not only in the film but also in the actors’ statements, as a victim trying to trying to survive in a masculine and masculine corporate culture.” Witness the spread TikTok sound Gaga’s voice overlaid Shows and film contains violence against women.

Before making a statement about the Gucci family, the designer Tom Ford wrote about his experience watching movies. (Played by Reeve Carney, Ford is briefly introduced at the end.) Ford was the fashion house’s creative director at the time of Maurizio’s murder and worked closely with him; He is depicted in the film as the designer who revamped the brand just as Maurizio wanted it to be.

In his statement, Ford wrote that he was “very upset for a few days after watching Gucci house,“Which I believe is a reaction that only those who know real people and real things can feel. “It’s hard for me to see humor and camping in something so bloody.”

He wrote, “I usually laugh out loud, but am I?” and describe some scenes featuring Jared Leto as Paolo Gucci, it looks like they might be from SNL. “Leto’s excellence as an actor is buried under rubber prosthetics,” Ford wrote. “Paolo, who I’ve met a few times, is really eccentric and does some odd things, but his overall demeanor is definitely not the same as the frenetic and seemingly physically challenged character. spirit in Leto’s performance.”

Although Ford and the Gucci family have openly shared their opinions and grievances with the film, the film will still be a success. Among the over-the-top roles, there’s Gaga and Driver and stunning cinematography. And, in Ford’s own words, “put the Gucci name on everything and they usually sell”.
