“Don’t expect some sordid exposé of what the grotty alleyways off Carnaby Street truly saw in their day,” writes Tim Robey in his review of Twiggy for The Telegraph. Following Quant, her 2021 release on the designer Mary Quant, Sadie Frost’s new documentary secures her reputation as the go-to director for all things fashion. Born Dame Lesley Lawson, Twiggy did not grow up in the glamorous world she would later come to know. Raised in northwest London by a factory worker mother and a carpenter father, her childhood was anything but eventful. Things changed quickly when the Daily Express, a national newspaper, called her “The Face of 66.” She was 16. Twiggy quickly became an internationally renowned model, her large lash-y eyes and long lean limbs defining the look of the 1960s. Mirroring Twiggy’s cheerful and friendly personality, Frost’s film explores the challenging moments of her life without ever dropping into melancholy. From Sir Paul McCartney to Sienna Miller to Brooke Shields, an array of voices help tell this vibrant whirlwind story. —Jeanne Malle
