Plot: In 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, a young grifter named Estella is determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute. But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella.

In honour of Sasha Trusova's new FS and the fact I came across it while shelving at the library I decided to borrow and watch this film.

This is the first live action based on an animation Disney film I've watched and I really enjoyed it Cruella is a great character with a tragic backstory and absolutely brilliant fashion sense.

The fact that Cruella is also a morally grey character injects a lot of fun into the movie since she does things no typical Disney Princess would ever do.
