Uncovering The Bitter Truth About Ray Halston

True (?) or False (?) - The more famous and powerful that famed American women's fashion designer, Ray Halston got the meaner and uglier he became.

Well - For you to find out the reality to that puzzling query, you'll just have to view this very revealing celebrity bio-documentary to discover the riveting answer for yourself.

Through stills, archival footage, and interviews - This "Frederic Tcheng" production certainly doesn't beat around the bush nor mince any words when it comes to uncovering who Ray Halston (1932-1990) really was.

So - Are you daring-minded enough to endure the truth?

So much better than that dumb series

Really enjoyed this, didn't know anything about him and had to switch off that terrible netflix series after 20 mins.

This is far more informative and less intent on just portraying him to be a cokey ego maniac (plus as an added bonus, it doesn't have ewan mcgregor doing a bad duncan norvelle impression).

Recommended.

VICTIM OF FASHION

In what may be the definitive look at Studio 54 crazy seventies fashion excess, "Halston" is a mixed bag of riveting stories, grainy VHS tapestry, and failed mystery caper.

Flamboyant dress dictator Roy Halston Frowick was indeed larger than life, and his dirt poor farm boy to fashion mogul of the stars story is watermelon juicy. Juicy and messy. Everyone loves an impossible mountain climb, especially when it is followed by a precipitous fall. The Halston tale has it all, complete with a bevy of celebrity cameos, eye-popping paparazzi pics, shocking news headlines, and jittery standard definition television clips. It's a cinematic ice-cream headache: a sweet and delicious start, which leaves you a bit concussed by the end.

If nothing else, this doc serves as a perfect history primer for the outrageous spectacle that the fashion industry would become. Plus it features the utterly charmingly cut-throat Halston in all his fabulous, pompous glory.
