First comes Lifetime’s original three-hour movie, “Coco Chanel” (tonight at 8). What some might call a gutsy view of fashion’s most influential talent of the 20th century others will find appalling. The movie stops short of being a fashion faux pas, but the strong, forceful Chanel would never welcome the premise of this biographical movie - that her success was a result of the tragic relationships she had with men.
