From the acclaimed Australian director Gillian Armstrong and writer Katherine Thomson, the documentary Women He’s Undressed<\/strong> was released today, August 9, which traces the rise and fall and rise again of one of the most prolific, and spectacularly talented costume designers of Hollywood’s golden age: legendary three-time Academy Award winner Orry-Kelly.<\/p>\n

Following his four-decade career and dazzling creative relationships with a who’s who of Hollywood, this dishy and glamorous film – inspired by his recently published posthumous, long-lost memoir, discovered in a pillow case – unveils the secrets of one of Hollywood’s most singular and outspoken talents. Orry-Kelly was outspokenly gay at a time when Hollywood was deeply conservative. \u00a0Also, his life included a close relationship with a young British actor Archie Leach, who later changed his name to Cary Grant.<\/p>\n
