Yes they are overpaid. Yes they are overrated...but then again, who wouldn't give their right arm just to be one of them for a day. Catwalk is an engrossing look at a top model going through one season of shows. It would've been more fascinating if the documentary had focused on some no-name lesser known model fighting her way thru the industry to get recognized...but there are some amazing moments in this documentary - primarily John Galliano's show where the models are reminiscent of Russian Princesses in sweeping ballgowns running down the runway like they are being chased to the sounds of "Ride of the Valkyaries" -- the Malcolm McClaren soundtrack is beautiful (you can buy it - called PARIS) - all in all interesting to sit through, but wish there was a bit more depth to the nitty gritty of the industry - i felt as if it was a bit too romanticized.

The video documentary "CATWALK" is way better then it should be. Beautifully shot, great Malcolm Mclauren soundtrack, all the supermodels. This video stars the freakishly beautiful supermodel Christy Turlington and takes place when Supermodels ruled the world and lived the lives of rockstars (witness some lady telling Christy, "We Love you Christy" on the way to a fashion show.

Christy takes us behind the scenes to a life of a supermodel during the fashion weeks in Milan, Paris, and NYC. She takes us to 5 star Hotels, Nightclubs, and house parties with other supermodels.

Ms. Turlington doesnt show any of the darker sides of the modeling industry, which is the only thing missing from this film. But, this documentary is wonderful journey that show us a side of Christy, Naomi Campbell, and Kate Moss that is rarely seen by the public.

Should I be embarrased to say I found this documentary completely engrossing? From the initial cover shoot at Versace to the closing shots of Christy T. sitting for a Francisco Clemente portrait (it's haunting and beautiful -- he's the artist that did the artwork for the movie "Great Expectations" BTW), I was glued to this movie. The soundrack includes "St. Germain" by Malcolm McClaren, which I love, during the Paris collections. Many parts are beautifully shot in black and white. Some great moments go by quickly: a really funny exchange between Christy and model Veronica Webb, Kate Moss drunk at a club in Milan, behind the scenes at Galliano ("Think Irving Penn, Irving Penn!!"), ALT commenting on the same collection ("This man HAS NO MONEY!"), Christy eyeballing Naomi's gift flower bouquet at the Georges V ("Is hers bigger than mine?"), the whole documentary is full of great stuff.

An amusing but tepid documentary. I alway thought of Christie as beautiful for sure. But when you see her walk and talk, she is so BLAND. She has to be the least sensual beautiful woman I've ever seen. She has no sensuality. She's kind of nerdy even. She doesn't have any wit. She once said, "I'm known as the nice supermodel. I want to be known as the smart supermodel." Well, she's definitely nice, but in a bland way. And it's funny to see some physical flaws in her in this film. She has ugly feet. Most people's feet flare out toward the toes. But her feet are rectangular shaped, the sides being straight lines. Weird looking feet. And sometimes when she smiles, her lip goes above her gumline, so there's a big gap of gum-space above her teeth. Gross to look at. Anyway, this is over-all a diverting but hardly fascinating film.

A surprisingly watchable documentary. Christie is the Audrey Hepburn of supermodels, with all the graciousness and class and poise that Hepburn had, and so is a treat to watch move and talk and walk in CATWALK. When you have big-headed, sometimes nasty supermodels like Linda Evangelista and Naomi Campbell annoying the public, it's nice to have a kind Christie Turlington to prove that just because you're beautiful doesn't mean you can't be humble. It's a shame that Christie was diagnosed with emphysema at age 31. She said smoking cigarettes from aged 13 to 26 is probably what brought it on. It's hard to have much sympathy for the rich, famous and beautiful, but my heart does go out to Christie because she seems such a lovely, lovely person in every way, as CATWALK shows.
