Who'd have thought that a documentary about designer Isaac Mizrahi's 1994 collection would become the best party of the movie year? But that it is. Unzipped, directed by fashion photographer Douglas Keeve and dazzlingly shot in color and in black and white by Ellen Kuras, offers behind-the-scenes peeks at skin, fits, egos and such super-models as Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista and Cindy Crawford (much better here than in Fair Game).

But the star of this blissful bash is Mizrahi himself. The yeshiva boy from Brooklyn, N.Y., is a laugh riot talking about design inspirations from sources as diverse as ballet, books, Mom, Mary Tyler Moore, Eskimos and bad old movies. He's also keenly informative about the joy and pain of the creative process. Keeve figured that just riding Mizrahi's coattails would make Unzipped an exuberant high. He figured right.

“Let My Love Open the Door”

A peppy, hopeful love song, "Let My Love Open the Door" became a U. S. Top Ten hit for Pete Townshend in 1980, anchored by the kind of repeating synthesizer figures that he'd used in some of the Who's recordings in the previous decade. Although Townshend brushed the song off as "just a ditty" in Rolling Stone shortly after its release, in 1996 he revealed it was about love of the holiest sort. "It's supposed to be about the power of God's love," he remarked. "That when you're in difficulty, whether it's major or minor, God's love is always there for you."
