House of Gucci (2021)
The biographical crime drama House of Gucci, inspired by the shocking true story of the family behind the Italian fashion empire, was the 30th biggest film of 2021.
Directed by four-time Oscar nominee Ridley Scott (American Gangster, Murder on the Orient Express) and boasting an all-star cast led by Oscar winner Lady Gaga (A Star is Born) and two-time Oscar nominee Adam Driver (Marriage Story), the film follows Patrizia Reggiani, an outsider from humble beginnings, who marries into the Gucci family. But her unbridled ambition begins to unravel their legacy and triggers a reckless spiral of betrayal, decadence, revenge, and ultimately…murder.
Oscars winner Al Pacino (The Godfather), Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club, and Jeremy Irons (Munich: The Edge of War) co-star, along with the likes of Oscar nominee Salma Hayek (Frida, Desperado), and Jack Huston (The Irishman, American Hustle, Boardwalk Empire).
The film was nominated for a 2022 Oscar for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, as well as four Critics Choice awards, a Golden Globe, an MTV Movie Award and three BAFTAs, including Outstanding British Film of the Year and Best Leading Actress for Lady Gaga, who won Best Film Performance at the 2022 Queerties.
