The September Issue is a 2009 American documentary film about the behind-the-scenes drama that follows editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and her staff during the production of the September 2007 issue of American Vogue magazine. The film is directed by R.J. Cutler and produced by Eliza Hindmarch and Sadia Shepard.

Synopsis

The film revolves around the making of the Vogue September 2007 issue. (The September Vogue is traditionally the biggest, most important issue of the year.) It depicts the effort that goes into making the magazine, and the passion that Grace Coddington, a former model turned creative director and the only person who dares to stand up to Anna Wintour, has for the highly regarded fashion magazine. In the film, Coddington is often portrayed as the leading victim to Wintour's aggressive personality. The relationship between Wintour and Coddington reveals itself to be symbiotic, as Wintour recognizes Coddington's expertise and keen eye for design. In the end, Wintour approves most of Coddington's ideas and they appear in the final version of the September issue.

Pierre Carles se demande pourquoi personne ne parle jamais du fait que la concession de la première chaîne de télévision à TF1/Bouygues a été renouvelée automatiquement depuis 1987 par le Conseil supérieur de l'audiovisuel, avec la complaisance de la classe politique. Pour ce faire, il prend sa caméra et son micro et entreprend d'aller interviewer des personnalités de la télévision française. Il comprend vite que la méthode qui avait fonctionné dans Pas vu pas pris ne marche plus. Il finit par s'interroger sur sa propre démarche et sur la critique des médias en général.

Les médias modernes aiment à se proclamer « contre-pouvoir », et se vanter de leur « indépendance », se constituant en rempart de la liberté de parole et de pensée. Pourtant, la grande majorité des journaux, des radios et des chaînes de télévision appartiennent à des groupes industriels ou financiers intimement liés au pouvoir économique et politique. Au sein d’un périmètre idéologique minuscule se multiplient les informations pré-mâchées, les intervenants permanents, les notoriétés indues, les affrontements factices et les renvois d’ascenseur.

La vie d'Yves Saint Laurent, majoritairement entre 1967 et 1976, période « sombre » du couturier avec ses tourments professionnels et affectifs ainsi que sur ses relations avec le dandy Jacques de Bascher et celui qui est déjà son compagnon, Pierre Bergé. Le film se concentre sur ses méthodes de travail, sa rencontre avec ses deux muses, Loulou de la Falaise et Betty Catroux, les excès de ses nuits durant lesquelles le couturier sort beaucoup, mais surtout sur l'isolement quotidien et la pression exercée sur Saint Laurent.

Comment s’exerce la démocratie quand un ministre en fonction, secrétaire général d’un parti politique de première importance, brigue la mairie d’une grande ville de province ? Comment les médias locaux traitent-ils l’illustre parachuté ? Que devient le beau principe de l’égalité de traitement entre les candidats ?Juppé, forcément... décortique une campagne électorale à travers le regard des journalistes et montre à quel point la politique, comme le reste, fonctionne à deux vitesses, « selon que l’on soit puissant ou misérable... »
