The Times
As Paolo Gucci would say, and indeed did wail, mid-way through the movie, "Why-ah? Why-ah? Why-ah?"
Full reviewOscar-winners Al Pacino, Lady Gaga, Jared Leto and Jeremy Irons star in Ridley Scott's chronicle of the Gucci family fashion dynasty, one that leads to the murder of the grandson of founder Guccio Gucci. Co-stars Academy Award-nominee Adam Driver (Marriage Story), Jack Huston (The Irishman) and Camille Cottin (Call My Agent!).
