Synopsis

IRIS pairs the 87-year-old Maysles with Iris Apfel, the quick-witted, flamboyantly dressed 93-year-old style maven who has had an outsized presence on the New York fashion scene for decades.

More than a fashion film, the documentary is a story about creativity and how, even at Iris' advanced age, a soaring free spirit continues to inspire.

IRIS portrays a singular woman whose enthusiasm for fashion, art and people are life's sustenance and reminds us that dressing, and indeed life, is nothing but an experiment.

Despite the abundance of glamour in her current life, she continues to embrace the values and work ethic established during a middle-class Queens upbringing during the Great Depression.

"I feel lucky to be working. If you're lucky enough to do something you love, everything else follows."

6/10

On the other hand, while the soundtrack is well-suited to the film's themes and tone, it sometimes feels a bit repetitive and fails to offer a truly memorable musical experience outside of the context of the movie. The songs, while enjoyable, lack a distinctiveness that would make them stand out on their own, making the soundtrack less impactful when listened to independently.

Each track enhances the storytelling and adds depth to the narrative, creating a truly immersive experience for the audience.
