Her life, and her work, transcended what we think of as "fashion." Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel celebrates a unique and uniquely determined woman.
Many people remember some of Diana Vreeland's famous pronouncements ("I adore pink! It is the navy blue of India!") but few remember actually hearing her speak. The documentary Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel takes care of that.
For fashionphiles and pop culture vultures, there's much to devour.
Diana Vreeland is both history lesson and sentimental love letter to a fashion titan.
Legendary fashion editor Diana Vreeland was the consummate dreamer, a romantic who never looked back and propelled society forward.
A feast for fashion-history buffs and anyone who applauds unstoppable eccentricity.
A lively portrait that's as colorful, dynamic and oh-so-fashionable as one of Vreeland's magazine spreads.
An otherwise fine profile of American fashion magazine doyen Diana Vreeland is let down by pedestrian production.
She wanted you to look and look again, and this film is full of images which make you do just that.
There's something marvellously comic about her, an effect reinforced by her refined yet raucous baritone voice.
This pleasurable documentary is jammed packed with images from magazines, photoshoots and newsreels of a life well lived, but also lots of historical footage of the life Vreeland imagined she had too.
...more of an energetic and affectionate sketch than a revealing portrait of this oversized personality, but one has to wonder if the woman who celebrated glittering surfaces would have wanted it any other way.
This fascinating documentary reveals that Vreeland (who died in 1989, aged 86) was an original: a dynamic woman with energy to spare and an infectious lust for life
What makes this such a joy to watch is not just the timeline of fashion highlights, but Vreeland's unique perspective on life.
The filmmakers have done a fine job corralling so many fantastic tales from Vreeland's life.
"Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel" is an intriguing portrait of a true original; you only wish the movie had half the color and verve of its subject.
A lively movie, and in the case of its appearance-obsessed subject, it feels right that all it does is skim the surface.
[Vreeland's] influence on twentieth-century culture was large, and it's celebrated here with affection, dedication and skill--but very little critical detachment.
Though unwilling to dig too deeply into what seems an imperfect private life, it still serves as a splendid introduction to a unique personality.
