Stop what you're doing, it's time to watch "Once and Forever," a new short film by Karl Lagerfeld that goes 'behind the scenes' of a biopic about Coco Chanel. The piece, which was released Tuesday on Chanel's Youtube channel, follows two actresses, played by Kristen Stewart and Geraldine Caplin, who are both starring in the film as Gabrielle Chanel. However, continuous interruptions and disagreements seem to be plaguing the production, especially when the younger actress keeps clashing with the creative team. This mutli-layered, meta concept not only features the on-set drama, but it also lets us in on bits and pieces of the actual life of Coco Chanel. It's a beautifully-shot, smartly imagined premise with performances by Kristen and Geraldine that will absolutely leave you wanting more. Watch it right here:
To get even more meta, you can also check out the actual behind the scenes interviews with Kristen and Geraldine, where they dicuss their experience filming the piece and stepping into the shoes of Coco Chanel.
We wouldn't mind a full-length "Once and Forever" film, just saying!
