Movie #125 "Valentino: The Last Emperor" although I only got through about 40 minutes, seemed all one note -----I got that his main seamstress was bitchy, that the models were nude that he dressed constantly (except for a g-string), that he was mean and temperamental to his workers and his lover, that everything was hand sewn, and that he had a love/hate relationship with his partner/lover Giancarlo. The dresses were pretty, but the dialogue was the same from one scene to the next, so I have to nix this one. I liked the music in the background for the most part, and the shows themselves looked very exciting, but the movie is a bit flat.
