REVIEW
This perplexing documentary about putting together the September 2007 issue of Vogue magazine suffers greatly from two things: the absence of any voice-over to explain what is taking place and the haphazard way it evolves, jumping around from one thing to another.

What passes for a story line are snippets of conversations and asides. It is like being a fly on the wall trying to figure out what it’s all about.

CLASSIFICATION
for brief strong language.
