Brunello: The Gracious Visionary is an inside look at the extraordinary life and career of the man behind a luxury fashion empire built on the principles of humanity and artistry. Having grown up in a rural agricultural community, Brunello began his eponymous company in 1978 and soon became dubbed "The King of Cashmere". The documentary film presents an intimate portrait of Brunello Cucinelli, a "philosopher-designer” revered for his distinctive integration of humanistic values, craftsmanship, and ethical entrepreneurship.

In the end this feels less like a film for cinema than a lavish in-house promo for new staff, a mandatory induction-day viewing. I’m not sure it’s necessary for the rest of us.

I really liked this one as director Giuseppe Tomatore of CINEMA PARADISO creates a Fellini-type past for Brunello Cucinelli. Mr. C's vision of the humanistic capitalist makes him a decent rich bitch, but there was really no downside portrayed. Brunello!

Rosy portraits of nice billionaires may be an acquired taste. But for anyone who can afford a sweater that runs $1,500 on a sale day, feel free to buy what he’s selling.

Giuseppe Tornatore’s artful documentary about the celebrated King of Cashmere is almost as chancy as the Italian designer, Brunello Cucinelli’s life has been.

3/5

While Tornatore fills the first part of this documentary hybrid (which was commissioned by Cucinelli himself) with nostalgic charm, the latter half devolves into a list of self-congratulatory accomplishments that paint Cucinelli as an infallible genius.
